Sounds like Senor Snyder attended the Bernie Baruch Business School- trick is finding uninformed potential sellers of good or better guns that don't know their true worth (and Cabela's and Gander Mountain have dipped into that well many a time)-- You also have to have the mindset that will not allow you to "fall in love with any certain gun"--be as objective as you can- some guys go "Ga-Ga" over Sophia Loren or Tina Turner (two older broads who have aged well) others over fine vintage wines, Scotch whisky or Cuban cigars- others get that way over fine marbled Circassian walnut and blued steel- put me in all three groups, but a fine shotgun or rifle is a treasure indeed. Yup- buy 'em low and sell 'em higher, when the shifting sands of the market allow that to happen for you-
