The Colt I saw last time was gone. Found another but priced $450 over my max. I made the offer, he did come down $200, but still $250 above my comfort zone.

Back to the auctions...

    From reading this, as long as it has been going on, I think it made my BP rise. I hope you get a deal soon.

    Go back on Sunday. Some guys will make deals when the show is coming to a close. I've seen lots of dealers mark down prices on tags on Sunday mornings.

    I will chip in $20 just to put an end to this. Anyone else chip in?

    Buddy of mine used to go only on Sunday close to closing. His name is Lance and he called his plan "Last chance Lance"! '

    Why don't we go to school and work on the weekends and take the week off!

    last day at any show normally gets a price cut. but it also means its been picked over countless times , as stated many times any good deals are gone before the general public arrives .
    I use to work with fellows who would pay the dealer price ( set up ) to get into shows at flea market or gun show's never set up any thing it was just to get a chance at the better buys

    I wouldn't try that without asking the seller if will be back on Sunday. About half are Saturday only.
