Ask them if they have any guns for sale.

Just last week I was told by a fellow ODT'er about a great book on African safari hunting written by Peter Hathaway Capstick, so I found a decent price for a used hardback cover and ordered it from an online thrift store. When it arrived the other day I opened it and it was hand signed. Another awesome find from a thrift store. Mr Capstick died back in 1996, so it is truly a treasure to me. I don't know or care the value of it, but I believe it is $12 well spent.

Might as well cut to the chase. What are they gonna do, take away your birthday? LOL
I always ask directly. My brother picked up a 1940's Browning A5 for $300 by simply asking at an estate sale last year. It is close to mint condition!
