    Buy low sell high! Most of the people who offer way low also try to sell way high because they only make a deal when they find a sucker so they have to make a lot on each sale because they will never make a living on volume.

    ohen,
    I stood there and looked at what they had on the wall and in some other racks. The same types of rifles in similar condition at about four times as much. I do understand that people need to make money but that was pretty blatant.

    Sounds about right. I've had it happen to me many times. So much so that I do not try to do trades at shops anymore because I end up getting pissed off.

    I was trying to trade this and a 1970 Win Model 94. 400.00 total. The 94 had a little pitting on the receiver and the 7mm had some dents in the wood. This was at a shop. Trying to trade for something else. I have now changed my mind and will keep them both and buy what I want elsewhere.

    Thats why...lots of gunshops do that...they will turn around and put a $450-$500 price tag on it...

    its like taking it to the pawn shop and expecting to get full value on it.
