You've had a lot of good advice from the others above. Two things I'd add are if you are the seller, NEVER list anything as "$495 OBO(or best offer) Anybody can make an offer on the item even if the ad says "price is firm" and NOBODY will pay you $495. The other thing is that you make an offer or agree to accept an offer, stick to it, even if you have second thoughts afterwards. A deal is a deal and our word is the most valuable thing we have, IMO. Don't make an offer and then, after it has been accepted, say "I have to ask my wife" or some other dumb-a$$ed excuse to get away. If you really DO have to ask your wife, you shouldn't be allowed to own a gun. That question should be added to the list on the 4473 ATF form. You don't deserve a gun and should look for a new wife, while you're getting an estimate on a cojone implant. Any dealer who gets snotty over a reasonable offer should be avoided. It's your money. He has to sell guns to survive. You don't have to buy THAT gun and sure as heck don't have to buy one from him.
