How to buy a Pistol for 3/4 the Asking Price.

There are three prices for everything:

1. The price you tell your FRIENDS you paid.
2. The price you tell your WIFE you paid.
3. The price you REALLY paid.

True that. One of my worst fears is that once I die, the wifey will offload a bunch of my stuff for roughly what I told her I paid for it.

But, ahh... pfft! I should just pour myself another Scotch and be over it already. :D

As the child of several Oklahomans, I can tell you that an Okie will pay more for a "clean one-owner" than he will for the same thing brand new.

I mean, who can pass up a clean one-owner?

That too would kill me all over again.

Thats why my dad always tell me what he really pays. He figures I can get the heat from his wife after he is gone....
 
I saw no levity at all, but I did see a very shrewd haggler, or at least a very wise husband.

"Hi dear, look at the new pistol I bought for $300, it is worth $400".

Of course no mention being made of the $95 bucks spent on accessories.

All the best,

I gave $300 for this hard chromed EG Mak sans A/O night sights and grips. I received about 8 magazines, 10 pair of grips, two HBE holsters, and 500 rounds of ammo. The way I figure I got an EG Mak for about $150 and that isn't bad. Regards, Richard:D

When I go, my wife will have to hire someone to come in and cut my safe apart... and there's a book in there with the _real_ values. I figure I'll get a pass, since I'm dead :)

I don't think I've ever paid more than a 'couple hundred' for a gun :rolleyes:
 
Wow, I learned something that will come in very handy. 25% discount, I'll bet I can get an even deeper discount it I work it right. I can see it all...."really honey, I got it at HALF price, I just couldn't pass it up". "Fine, what's all that other crap?" "Uhhh, nothing." Man, I can't wait to try it out and with some training who knows what I'll end up getting this year :D

Nicely done. How can you sleep nights taking advantage of a fellow High roader. LOL

I realized immediately that Harry is a great guy--I didn't mind. :D

(Harry, you really are a great guy. Thanks for the FTF meeting.)
