Where Are All The Buyers At?

[Alexx1401]

You don't have to go to a show. Just click on the classified section.

Back LONG ago I used to love the shows as I often actually bought stuff. Would first have to fondle them of course and go back and forth before coming home with yet another gun. Telling the Wife "damn thing followed me home I swear. "

I have found the classifieds here to work better for me doing trades rather than outright purchases. Same at gun shows.

I've found some amazing once in a lifetime deals here!

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut every once in awhile. Or something like that….. lol.

I haven't found my nuts in a long time.

I've seen some pretty good deals here come and go, but the best ones go quickly, but most some buyers want to pay less than the pawn shops offer.

"I'll give you $120 with all the ammo"... get bent

Or one of my favorites, "I'll trade you brake fluid and $300 worth of expired canned food from the 90's"

Hey now! It was kidney beans! Kidney beans last for forever!

I have noticed the for sale ads far outnumber the Want To Buy ads. I think the WTB section doesn't get much attention. Maybe AI will help us match up buyers/sellers/traders.

The WTB is split into two groups, buyers looking for very specific items who are willing to pay up . Aaaaaand dudes like you. Lol. I reckon you know what I mean.

Nobody ever accused me of being part of the "pay up" group.

I can't help you with that.

And as I've been told before, "nobody wants your accessories"

I said that. And I hold to it. Nobody wants your accessories.

Guns with mags sell.

Guns with cheap holsters, plastic dummy "blue" guns, cleaning kits and a 2018 full frontal poster of Fred Flintstone don't. Nobody wants to pay extra for a garage sale looky-loo accessory pile and if I recall, the gun I said that about didn't sell on the classifieds. Because nobody wanted your accessories.

Must have been looking at a different gun then, because mine did sell.

Not on the classifieds, but to a shop. Maybe I'm misremembering, however I believe it was a Glock 22.

It was a Glock 22, but I didn't sell it to a shop, it was actually a trade, so my mistake on the "sell". I traded it for a Glock 45. The gentleman who got it was happy with what he got, as was I. In fact, I'm much happier with the 45 than I was with the 22.

Oo. Oo.
I actually want them blue guns.

It was actually an ASP redgun. That's the one thing I wish I had kept.

No Flintstone's posters though, sorry.
