Wow, I love this site!
Everyone selling something has the opportunity to do their due diligence and if they don't then they get what they get.
The best I ever did was an ad in the newspaper for a Parker 20 gauge.
I checked the newspaper every morning as soon as it hit the step and finally found something to get excited about. I shot out of the house, headed 40 miles south to a small farm town, driving well in excess of the speed limit and sweating all the way there. Got there just before 7:00am and the nice fella that answered the door invited me in. There on the table was a 30" VHE in about 60% condition. He said, my wife doesn't want it in the house anymore because our son is getting to the age that he wants to start using it. I gave him the $800 bucks and on the way back home I felt bad for a young man that wouldn't have the pleasure of growing up shooting anything; much less a Parker. But that's the society we live in.
They told me they got their price from the local gunshop, so I don't feel one bit bad, that was their due diligence and they were happy with it.
One of my buddies called me about 10:30 that morning to tell me about the ad and I told him that it was already sold……to me.
Great BUY Alan!
