Sales price is based on value of the item, not what you paid. Economic goods, whatever the market will bear. Good deals do not necessarily get passed on to consumers.

The reason I removed the price is if I ever decide to sell it people would use what you bought it for and try to negotiate what your profit should be.

Well I know you only paid 2200 so I will offer you 2400. I would just laugh them off. If I find something on the street, nobody claims it and it is given back to me does that mean it now has zero value?
I agree chaosrob...but there are always people who think since I paid "A", that I should take "A+B" and that should be enough since they know what I paid.

Also I was very worried someone would find out where this gun was located and buy it out from underneath me. Turns out there were 15 people at the store when they opened but a S&W shipment was last night and they were there for that.

Good for you sir, whatever you decide to do with it. People sub work to me and I sub work to them in my field. I can tell you that I do not care for a minute how much they are making off the work they sub to me as long as I make my margin. The rest is their business

Everyone has their own sense of right and wrong. Someone trying to get proper information on a purchase and then someone else using information gained from the request for help to slide in and snag a deal using information gained from a post asking for input is imho shady. Now if they posted that they had seen xxx at the local store and if anyone was interested, that is different. Kinda reminds me of the vultures circling after a funeral
I don't understand how. OP in that case would have had first option, chose not to buy, and then posted info on a public forum. OP wouldn't have any rights to a gun he passed on.

I'd shoot it and take care of it as is. it has obviously already been shot, so what harm can you do? I would probably keep the loads on the lighter side, but enjoy it. Just keep it out of the holster lol
