That when one gun shows up in the Trading Post... 2 or 3 others seem to pop up right after?

I'm guilty of it. Seeing the two Buck Marks reminded me of my pistol kit I had laying around. I wonder if it's like that for others.

Do you see a gun listed, remember you have one laying around, and then list it after seeing it?

Yeah, seems I posted a Browning Gold Hunter, and not even 2 days later, another one is listed.

What I notice is after a gun is listed then you see in the wanted section the same gun. Like they couldn't come to terms on the one for sale.

Or i remove one, another of the same thing goes up, for $2-300 more and SELLS!! To the same one who tried to beat me up on mine!. JK the last sentence, but i have seen it before.
I think a few of the same gun is ok PROVIDING they have the same features, accessories and mags with them. Telling me member X has the same gun for $100 less, means they are not looking at the full ad, only the price.

And this usually happens when one of those unusual, "Gotta Have" items pops up for sale......[Tooth]

^^^ This.

Seller's thought process...


I'm content with life and my arms collection...

Gets on CO AR-15....Sees weapon in photo thread and/or watches random video or sees random pic on youtube or google.


ZOMFG MUST HAVE!!

Look around...

What can I do without!

I didn't really agree with this chain of thought until like 5 Aimpoints popped up for sale in the past 48 hours...

I've noticed the same thing. Been guilty of it too.
"Wow! a ???? is worth X?! I have one of those that I never shoot."

Really kind of bugs me. You have an item up and then the exact same one pops up and is gone faster and yet same price.

They come in cycles. I really don't know why, but they do.
I have noticed that for years in newspapers, this forum and others.

Excuse me Monky, didn't mean to offend. With my punctuation.

I usually notice this about a week after I spent more money on the exact model, elsewhere. I'm pretty sure the gun-gods are smiting me, it happens at least a couple times a year, and it doesn't matter if I've been looking for something for months. As soon as I buy one, another comes up here for cheaper. I guess I need to post to the "wanted" forum more often.
