I probably sell a dozen or so each year . And most years I acquire that many or more .

I won't deal with any of the auction houses as a seller . Nothing against them I just don't care for the cut they take and yes I realize they need to make money as well . I sell exclusively on Gunbroker and generally if I sell a $1000 gun GB gets $18 a $2000 is usually about $30 . I can deal with that . Sold a couple in the $7000+ range and never paid GB more then $250 .

The whole thing is like someone told me before I went to the Baltimore Show the first time , keep your eyes open for anything that's priced at a good buyers price . Don't be focused on one particular thing as you'll overlook others .

Now granted if you don't buy and sell and want say an AHE 20 gauge that's what ya want and that's all you're looking for .
