In the past 2 years I have bought two very high grade Lefevers from widows who found them in their deceased husband's gun closets. Neither had any knowledge of the guns. I did what I could to educate them and a fair price was rendered for each. I couldn't sleep at night knowing I had intentionally cheated an unknowing sole of something that was rightfully due them.

On the other hand, if I walked into a pawnshop in Podunk and found a genuine Optimus priced at $500 I would not hesitate to pick it up at that price. In this case its somebody who is in business, and it is their reponsibility to know the value of what they are selling. I feel the same applies to anyone who has a table at a gun show.
