[QUOTE="Frederick, post: 3041569, member: 17825"] If you don't want to hear me complain feel free to disregard. Anyone who has looked over a classified section or used Armslist is aware that a lot of folks seem to put more value on their gun than it is worth. Maybe that's how much it was when they bought it. But how do people come up with some of these numbers? If I can get a better deal on budsgunshop or GunBroker for a brand new, never used gun from the manufacturer, why would I pay more for a used gun from a private seller? There is also inherently more risk involved. Obviously one should factor in shipping and transfer fees, but sometimes it's just ridiculous. Obviously If you're a felon it might be worth more too, since you can buy it legally from a dealer haha It sucks because I'd rather buy locally. Even the local dealers are overpriced, as well. That's why I'd sooner buy on the web than from a dealer. Not to mention I've been screwed before on gun deals. [/QUOTE]
