Local shop for consignment?

[CS1983]

I say never deny the opportunity for a sale. Smaller pool here, true, but you never know who just has cash burning a hole or is really after a particular item. Diversified posting seems fine. Just more of a pain for comparing time stamps.

I'd say price fair/market. No need to lose your shirt, and anyone who would ask you to do so is acting against the same sense of community that the intent (not price gouging) has.

I'm interested in his pricing. Since i have a few $$ not really burning a hole in my pocket. More like smoldering on the back burner. But he can't sell them, if no one on the forum, has an idea what he's asking

My experiences have been different at DF. I've consigned about 10 guns with them over the last few years and I price realistically. Most of the rifles have sold within days of being consigned with the last two being sold within hours. I do have two pistols with them currently that I realize may not be sold anytime soon due to their caliber (.40 S&W), but that's not their fault. The market is flooded with 40's right now.

I may have to eat crow on this one. Stopped by this weekend and it looks like it might have sold. Couldn't find it on the shelf, and after pounding on a computer for a bit they told me they think it's sold... They were a little busy with buyers and nothing in stock that I needed, so I'll check back when it's quieter.

That's been my experience recently as well. Even though they've added a bunch of staff, the place is always hopping. I do a bit of people watching there and its interesting to see the numbers of people buying whatever they can.

That's not limited to CO. Like elvis, it's everywhere.


I'd still like to know a price on a few. BUT the OP has not responded to my 2 pm's, Not even a rude screw you i'm selling locally reply. oh well. Off to the next toy.

Until a couple of months ago, I would have suggested Green Mountain. However, their policy has changed and they now dictate the price of consignment guns. I came in with a bag of handguns and left with them along with a new found appreciation for Gun Broker. I think it's the primary reason their display cases are so bare.

He hasn't been on the forum since 21 Dec. I sent him a text letting him know you are interested.
