I'm sure it doesn't go down like this all the time...but today was impressed.
There I was...wandering a store that sucks... Guy came in with a XDm of some sort(full size...maybe 9 mm) asking what he could get out of it.. They said they could give him 350 for it as selling it new they'd get about 599 and being used they'd sell it for 499 or so. Told him they give 60% of retail for used guns. They told him he could easily get 450-500 out of it on Armslist. He was nervous about selling it online for fear of getting shot when he sold it. Probably a guy that bought it last year when everyone was scrambling waiting on the federal ban hammer to hit. He looked pretty uncomfortable around it. I thought about piping in my opinion on places and experiences selling but decided he looked a bit scared anyway and my carhart screamed 'warm redneck' so didn't want to scare him of us 'maniacs'.
Regardless, they told him he could get money from it elsewhere and didn't lie and fleece him of his shiny firearm(thing looked never fired). I was confused and checked the signs for as much as I've heard the place sucks. I was able to confirm their ammo prices suck which helped me confirm I was actually in Gander...but found a decent deal for the times on .30-30 so I can have fun with my lever action this summer.
I now return you to your regularly scheduled Gander Bashing posts...
