What's Going On with Pricing between FS & FT? Come on Guys!!!

[OttoMan]

I am here for a bit more than 3 years, and have done some pretty good deals. What I really don't understand, is the "price" set by some of you when you have a gun advertised as FS and FT (FS/FT) ; then you put the price for sale, say, $550.00 - But the pricing for the trading side of the same gun, you put it as $700.00, I mean, whatttttttt? - So, when you're trading, your firearm jumps up the price just because you feel like? hahaha - Or is it because your gun automatically turns to be a better gun?

I think it is just a physiologic game! Value price is what MSRP suggest OR the Used Suggest Selling Price is in the market, it doesn't matter trading or selling. I am just saying! Don't get offended!! - lol...

This is well said. I have been wondering the same along with 90% of ODT...

BTW, I have a Glock. It’s for sale for 500.00 looking for a 2500.00 trade

Because people offering trades always want MSRP on their used stuff.

And I think this is so wrong! Because their price jumps way above any other Gun Store. Just search it, you will see! I understand that buying online it will have a bunch of junk fees.... but still!!!

People offing trades see their value at MSRP and value the thing you have at your sale price.

Wow, never heard of any of this before. Must be something new on The ODT!

MSRP + 20%= Trade Value....... it’s simple math.....

I believe it was BIKER13 Said “there are good deals on here, they are typically gone quickly. “
