What do you think on a guy who said YES yesterday to trade a used .40S&W HK for my NEW AR180b.

Just now he says NO-His "BUDDY" offered him alot of money for it!

So what do all you think?

I think you just got out of a deal you would have regretted down the road.

That used H&K is not worth near as much as a new AR-180.  You should send the guy flowers and a thank-you note.  Might even give him a big-ol wet sloppy kiss if he ain't too ugly!

Yeah, [b]W-W[/b], I think you got off easy. Used HK USP .40 looks like about $400 max, but your AR-180B should be $650 at least.

I like the 180b...I just haven't shot it  .

This part of VA is Ummmm Interesting...The only rifle range in the area is the NRA.  I have a M15A4c, an AR10 and an M1A awaiting their turn.  The 180 was just sitting there so I figured why not---Now I'm  dealing w/a guy who thinks he's got the world by the ballz 'cause he's got Low Milage USP .45.

Is he going happy when I say...wanna Guess?

All deals should be completed within 5 minutes of the decision. Granted, it would not have been a good deal, but still, if you really wanted it, you should have been prepared to do it on the spot.

i'll make that trade, just give me a few days to find a used .40USP  [;)]

As skewed towards him as it was, it blew my mind that he thought a could get a better deal...So I'm gonna let him.  I'll just buy either a USP or a P229.  I'm repurchasing all the fun toys I had before the Mkt took a header.  The one that kills me most was that I so broke I sold a P7M8 for about 400 bucks...We at least I paid the rent that month[puke].

I guess the others answered it for me. NO TRADE is EVER equal. There is ALWAYS a 'sucker' and a 'scoundrel' whether intentional or not.

#2 Seller came back and said "OK"...I said "I'll Pass".

Whoa! Saved by the bell.

The two trades I made:

my LNIB Springfield XD9 for a used Sig P220 .45

Am I the sucker or the scoundrel?


my used Glock 20 10mm for a S & W model 29 *nice*

Am I the sucker or the scoundrel?
