OK Ok

I have 4 guns for sale here. No big thing. The Buy now price is $100.00 more than the asking price. I think thats good. The asking price is at leat $100.00 less than the asking price of others on the net here. No Big thing. Sometimes no one wants what I have to sell, and that should be OK to. I have fun here and thats what it is all about for me. If you are not having fun, why do it I say. Soooo sell or dont sell. Bid or do not bid. But what ever you do here Have Fun.

    PLEASE GIVE US MORE INFO AND MORE PICS. ETC, WHAT KIND OF SCOPE ON THE TIMBERWOLF?? CHOKES ON THE SXS?? ALL THAT INFO WOULD SAVE ME FROM SEND YOU AN EMAIL.

    I WOULD RATHER BE DUCK HUNTING.

    Nearly 20 years ago when I had an FFL I went to a gun show....same place where I met Duckhunter, who fly's around on this site. On my table I had a brand new Marlin lever 375 Winchester marked up $25 over my dealer cost. Two feet to my left was the same Marlin only $100 higher. One prospect picked up my Marlin out of it's box looked at then moved to the table next to mine and bought that Marlin!!!! It seems the same logic still applies to the new wave gun auctions on line gig's. I still have fun...and I am still amazed at what goes on in the mind of the consumer!

    I have only one gun for sale on here right now. A local dealer offered me $310 for the package, which he knew was too low even based on his blue book but he said he had to make some money on it. So I decided I'd rather have those extra few bucks myself. I can either put the whole thing in the classifieds and probably sell it for $400 or put it on GB at $375. Somebody's going to get a deal because dealers are selling new ones (as mine is) for $369 without the extra mags (and they're $35 ea.). So if it doesn't sell on GB, it'll take me a little longer to run a free ad in next week's local ad rag, that's all. I'm not going to re-list to infinity, like some do.
