Dealing with folks that have a valid drivers license from the state that they are trying to buy a gun in cuts down on the bull shit , requiring a concealed carry permit in addition pretty much weeds out the con artists and whiners.

GB has a lot of different buyers. The gulf coast may have some higher end collectors, but not nearly the same buyer base as GB.If you price according to actual sold prices on GB , 99.9% here will not buy at those prices . Even collector grade LNIB with all the goodies . Been , there , done that & have a closet full of t-shirts .

Glad somebody brought this upWhat gets me are those $1,000.00 "Custom" Glocks with the custom stippling and no telling what all else. First, why would someone do that to a Glock, and second, ain't no way on Gods green earth that I'm paying a thousand dollars for a Glock. To me, any money spent "customizing" a Glock is just money flushed down the toilet.
ETA: My KKM barrel in my 10MM Glock 20 is sweet. That I can see, lol.
Have a g19 with custom holster wear marks on the slide, after market stipple wear , LNIB with approx 1000 rounds down pipe . $750 OBO , not interested in trades until nobody falls for this lolI have a 10mm G20 and a Lone Wolf G20 - 40 barrel. I can sell that for $1000 since it is two guns in one. Right?
I once had a few tables at a flea market. I had for sale a new trailer hitch kit in a plastic case for $15. It was less than half what it cost new.I'm always torn between listing $20 over what I want, just so I have room when I get the inevitable offers under asking; or asking what I want and just rejecting all offers that don't meet that.
I knew a guy bought a load of Nascar thermos for cheap. So cheap he marked them at 5 bucks(these were 20 retail) at the flea market. Sold one or two. Dropped the price to 3 bucks, people looked at them and set them down. He ended up marking them at 3 for 20 for the hell of it and sold a whole truck bed in one day.I once had a few tables at a flea market.

Almost every guy that came thru opened the case and about half offered me $10 which I rejected.
After a couple of hours, I raised the price to $20.
The next guy that came thru opened the case and offered me $15 which I accepted.
Are they marked up or is the dollar worth less?All the car dealers are buying up used vehicles and marking them up, housing too is marked WAAAAYYYY up.
That being said Im not one bit surprised that a used or lightly handled gun is selling for $50 more than new. No shop to visit, no paper trail, no call, no wait. Seems like a fantistic deal to me and I didnt have to pay $10 to walk through the covid at the gun show either, WIN WIN
