I see many guns and gun related items for sale here, and elsewhere. Just some advice.
We don't care if you paid $$XX amount for your item/s. We want a bargain, and we'll lowball you relentlessly. Your item/s are only worth what the market will bear, and if someone can find it cheaper somewhere else, they will, or, a worthy substitute. When you put in your ad, "No lowballers", it's almost an incentive to do just that to annoy you :mrgreen: The same could be said for "firm price", only to watch it be lowered over the weeks or months.
We don't care if you take a loss of $$ on what you're selling, we just want a good deal. If you feel you cannot afford to lose money on your item/s, then you'll probably be keeping them longer, or not selling at all. The price you paid is what you were willing to pay for said item/s, it's on you to reconcile that others don't feel the same way.
We don't care if your stuff is the "high end", most of us are aware of where companies contract to make the parts, and much of the time, it's the same place that makes the less expensive stuff. Putting a different name on the lower doesn't change the fact that it was made by the same manufacturer as the cheaper brand. Milling out a forged lower is the same everywhere, or even milling a billet, the aluminum is the same. Paying for a Spike's or an Anderson, the only real difference is most likely, quality control. So, I can buy 4 of one for the same price I can get one of the other. I can afford to have one out of spec. and still have 3 functional and send the other back for a refund or exchange.
So, take this for what it's worth, it was free
Have a great, gun carryin', Kenpo day
