My New Python Snake Eyes!

Well I picked up a set of Python Snae Eyes today. I kind of stumbled upon them this past weekend at a pawn shop. I typically don't go to pawn shops but after going to our local gun show that was so packed we couldn't walk threw it my brother and I decided since the shop was close to the show we would stop real quick and look to see what they had.

There wasn't much on the shelves, but I got to talking with the owner and asked if he ever had many Pythons come threw the shop. He said on occasion he did but not very often. Then he started telling me that he tried to get a friend of his to buy a pair of Pythons that he owned just the evening before. So I had to ask what they were and he told me they were snake eyes. He said they were nib and the only time they were even out of the shipping crate was when he received them he looked at them once and put them back in the box and never looked at them since.

I instantly got excited and asked him if he would sell them to me and how much. He said sure and shot me a price. Didn't have that much cash with me so I told hi I would get ahold of him Monday. Talked to him Monday and told them if they were what he said they were I would take them. I showed up today and they were as described. I think today is only the second time they had seen light. I don't think the display case has every been out of the box. I am excited. Sorry I am not much of a photographer but here you go.

Actually, on those guns, I have no idea what a deal would constitute.
I always report what I payed on a gun purchase, and feel that if one is mum about the price, then maybe it was at the top of the price range.
Nothing wrong w/that, I just like to know what gun prices are in different regions.
