Why the steep price on the ODT

[41mag]

Maybe there needs to be an ODT committee to " dictate" what people can ask for their stuff ? Everyone's prices are too high unless they are the ones listing them, it seems. Lol

I don't have a Trader's Guide. It's probably a good thing. I'd never get a deal done on here!

Yeah, it tends to hinder me a lot as well but, that's OK too. I would rather buy new at a decent price "On Sale" than overpay for something used. most people have a hard time telling the truth about the round count anyway. I mean seriously, I have no idea of how many rounds I have put through my Rifles, Handguns, or shotguns but, I still shoot them all.

So, to put my statement into perspective, I recently purchased "New" a Ruger SR1911 for $577.00 OTD, when some people wanted more than $700.00 for a used one on ODT. sometimes new is the better deal, I don't care what pack of lies I have been told about "It's Already Broke In".

Let me get this straight, when it says "LNIB" that is or isn't supposed to add 300.00 dollars to the actual value?

i find it's because folks have items they want ot buy with the money made off the sale of the item they are selling so it is marked up often

I wouldn't go off of the Blue Book or a gun traders guide when pricing a lightning...no flipping way. Take a look at what they have a 6" blued python listed at and tell me you'd sell yours for that price. Those guides are great for teaching about how to evaluate a gun, properly describe it's condition, and fill you in on unique and short run variants, but up to date pricing isn't a forte'. Not by a long shot.
