This is not a "how do I put the big britches on a dealer" question. I *do* want the best deal for my dollar, but I'm not out to hose anyone.
I'm planning on heading to the Pasadena, TX gun show next weekend.
Say I find what I want for $400. I have a Taurus PT92 to trade ~ the closer to $200 I get, the happier I'll be. Question is, will I do better taking my trade with me or just carrying cash? I have a local fellow who'll give me $185 for it. Should I just sell it off to him and take the cash in? Will cash "talk" where trades might "walk"?
This will be my first gunshow. Anything I need to know about, watch out for, or be especially watching for (hot deals)? (I'm not CCL'ed, so I won't be carrying; don't have to worry about that).
Thanks, in advance,
