Sometimes you get what you want and lose what you had, it's just life.

What you did that was even more offensive to 99% of the ODT faithful was that you actually drove an unfair (to you) distance to meet the guy, rather than persuade him to deliver to your recliner............ That should get you a ban hammer, very unlikeable move nowadays!

@OP.... LMAO.... If you got the gun you wanted... You win... you used something you don't shoot anymore.... not free money, but close.... too many people worry over the nickels and dimes... they end up passing on things they real want..... Enjoy what you have....

Recently an ODTer had a gun for cell or trade.

It was a gun which I wanted, and had not seen one listed at a price I was willing to pay.

His trade interest was a certain gun.

I had a certain gun. Actually I had three of virtually the same model as that certain gun, and that certain gun was sort of no. 3 in the stable, as it was the one I never shot or carried. As far as I was concerned, that certain gun was expendable.

I had no burning desire to sale it or trade it, but here was the opportunity to convert it from the gun I never used to a gun I really wanted and could use.

And so in the due passage of time, we agreed to trade guns. He got the gun he wanted, and I got the gun I wanted, and we both seemed happy.

I even drove to meet him, so much did I want his gun.

But now I have had time to think and reflect, and look more closely at the ads for similar guns on ODT.

And I am depressed because the trade was not heavily in my favor, which seems to be the true path of ODT.

In fact, the trade may have been in favor of the other guy, and so even though I have the gun that I wanted, and have wanted for some time, I think I should be sad, because I could have not made the trade which was not in my favor, and I would still have the gun I never used, and so I failed to follow the ODT way.

Should I assess myself a warning for trampling on the ODT path of righteous trading?

Is is wrong and un-American to trade for something you want just because you want it?

Reported.

Ya know, it's folks like you that give ODT a bad name.

We don't need your kind around here.

Disgraceful. Pure and simple.

Your kind make me SICK!

"and now you're trembling on a rocky ledge
staring down into a heartless sea
can't face life on a razor's edge
nothing's what you thought it would be"
