I really don't know how to respond to that. I guess The High Road is just a sometime thing to some.If I REALLY NEED an SP 101 then F ethics !
It is in my mind. You have to satisfy your own sense of fairness.I think this is not so cut and dry as some would like to think.
I guess The High Road is just a sometime thing to some.
I am SURE you know that is NOT what I meant by that.As far as my infrequent visits to THR goes
Just because the seller agreed doesn't make it fair.
The seller might need the money for cancer treatment.
Oh, stop with the "High Road" thing already.I am SURE you know that is NOT what I meant by that.
Yeah,I guess you're right since it no longer is applied. I guess we all have our OWN code of ethics.Oh, stop with the "High Road" thing already
I think it does. The buyer made an offer. At that point it is the responsibility of the seller to accept, counter-offer, or deny. He made his decision.
It is not the LGS' responsibility to know this. Anyone selling a gun needs money for something; another gun purchase, cancer treatment, or their electric bill. The LGS should not pay more than the 'value' of the firearm, or more than they would were anyone else selling. Can you imagine the confusion if the seller's life situation were calculated into market vale? Fortunately, it is not. The gun is worth X to the LGS. The seller will not let it go for less than Y. If X > Y, then why are we having this discussion?
So let's say you're riding a bicycle down the street. You have on a helmet that's made out of chain mail. You ride by, stop, and ask me, "Hey, what do you think of my helmet? Safe huh?"Yeah,I guess you're right since it no longer is applied. I guess we all have our OWN code of ethics.
I agree. It also means respect a man's place of business and don't compete with him under his own roof."be honest and do the Right Thing."
