I don't reply to ads that don't have a price.
Ya, the self governed auctions are bullshit. I also, would stay away from anything other than a suggested price.
Over the past few months I recall two guns that looked fine in the pics and seemed priced fair, but no-one seemed to like them for some reason. When you see the SAME revolver being resold a half dozen times in a month, often a day or two after it was bought, not at a profit but at the same price or even a loss, there is obviously a problem of some sort.
I'm not so pissed off anymore. Found the gun I wanted for a fair price . . . and it comes with ammo and holsters.
I decided to build a bolt gun last year and wanted to do a .308 platform AR this spring, doesn't look like that's going to happen anymore
I post the hard to get items on gunbroker, like ARs. Just as others have jobs and want to get a good wage so do dealers. If my boss came and said "would you like an extra $50.00 in your paycheck today" who here would say "no, I like you boss, you keep your $50.00 'cause I don't need it". It works both ways, fortunitly there are many on the forum that understand that and don't blast the dealers for putting stuff on gunbroker or ask MSRP for the hard to get stuff.
OR they wanted to move it quick for another deal on armslist, before someone complained about the price, and sold it. There were some reolaoding components here i wanted but the seller needed to move them before i could meet to seal the deal. I said to go to the next in line since they (who shall remain nameless) could do it within an hour. I didn't start bitching, i lost a deal because i wasn't closer, give it a rest.
