My first Marlin was a 336 TC. Just a scosch over $200. That was in the early '80s. Don't you wish you could go back and take advantage of some things you know now?

Well… which 30/30?
I remember I listed a tiller I got for $200 when Home Depot did a sale.
It’s ok for ppl to list a $600 sks or an ammo can they bought for $40 for $400 for the ammo now. or a house they got for a silver dollar and 4 raspberries but for me to want a fair trade… BLASPHEMY!!!!!
I just wanted a fair trade even if it was only for a couple hunnit trade. Lol
Still got some of those tillers new in box…. Wanna trade for your 30/30??? 😂😂😂
I have always owned a lever gun. Got my last JM Stamped gun at GA Firing line for 325 with scope. Sold it and the prices shot through the roof. Now I am in deep sorry at selling all the lever guns I have owned I my lifetime. Who knew the JM guns would jump like they did..
My dad traded a push mower to my uncle for one. Had it 30+ years.
The problem is how devalued our dollar is now. $400 nowadays is probably the equal of $100 in the 1970’s. Maybe less. Hell,my Dad used to give Mom a $100 bill to buy groceries..and it would absolutely FILL a grocery buggy up..

According to the inflation calculator, $100.00 in 1975 is equal to $583.07 today.The problem is how devalued our dollar is now. $400 nowadays is probably the equal of $100 in the 1970’s. Maybe less.

483.1% inflation. Not so bad if you say it real fast.
Of course, the median family income for 1975 was $11,800.00. Equivalent today is $68,801.00.
I’ll give you $400 for each
Why? Just that. Thread starter would never do that!
