Gunbroker--and similar sites--remind me of the older guys (some even older than me) at local gun shows, who keep bringing the same pre-'64 Winchesters (or other "classic" guns) with the same price-tags they've had on 'em for years. They don't really want to sell them. Instead they want to show 'em off, and bullshit with the other old farts.


Exactly my thoughts on it too. I don't pay any attention to "dealers" and their asking prices, selling prices are the only thing that matters. Priced right, stuff sells.
