Trading for one type of gun only?

[Hayata]

And in the "Stupid question amnesty" category.....I ask, how can a gun have a $500 cash price, but a $650 trade value?

It's worth what it's worth. I don't understand!

(Just doing my part for "complaint Thursday".)

The way I see it is that the seller would be willing to take something in trade that they didn't want and would have to turn around and sell or trade themselves...so the additional hassle of selling said unwanted item is the juice to discourage trades.

Does that make sense?

How often is this successful? ODT seems dead right now and I can't help but wonder about people who list a gun when they're only looking for one other type of gun. It seems the likelihood of that is not very high. Anyway, it's Thursday so why not complain about something?

I always like the guy who wants to trade for the same thing in FDE. Hilarious

There have been several times when I traded for something that I had NO idea I wanted then loved the trade.

I want to trade my Haskell 9mm for your Les Baer.

3 weeks ago a guy had the exact 45-70 with the longer barrel I was looking for, I had a rifle he has been trying to find for a few months. Mine was worth a little more and made up the difference with ammo. He did have that rifle as his only trade.
