Some people are just stupid, no way around it. I am not rich by any means, but I try to be smart about money, and dealings involving it. It amazes me how stupid some people are about finances. Buying stuff they can't afford, then selling it for a loss. I sometimes trade guns with friends, coworkers and aquaintances, assuming they arte reputable, and I dont think they are gonna get in trouble with it. My rules are these.
They set the asking price. If it is to high, I say thanks and walk away, offering to talk the gun around to help them sell it.
If the price is good I seal the deal as soon as possible, after asking them if they are sure they want to sell it.
Tell them up front all sales are final. Too bad if you change your mind tomorrow.
Deal in cash, I appreciate it, and figure others do as well.
Once the deal is done, the item is my property, to do with as I please. Sell, keep, trade, or sell back to them at a higher price than I paid
Be above board and honest, no tricks or misleading tactics, straight up dealing. Usually no hard feelings, and hey if there are, and you did your best to be straight, so what?
