Asking prices stay higher than market prices because people hate to sell anything for a loss. It can take a long time for asking prices to correct. If sellers cut prices for say a 12ga Trojan to $300. to $500. I believe sales would increase. How many of you have said to yourself my gun is worth 50% less than what I paid, I will just keep it. That thinking slows down sales and reduces the number of buyers. Same happens with real estate and wall street.
