Trade offer received today

[Ripper]

Had an offer today of a brand new Remington 870 tactical 18.5 barrel, pistol grip, blah blah blah. For??? Get this.... 500 rounds of 5.56 ammo

Should I have done the trade?

 

[Darral27]

I sure would have. I guess with the prices 5.56 are going for right now on Gunbroker that would be letting the ammo go cheap really.

 

[Colt556]

I would have done it....

 

[HavokCycle]

i might trade for 1000 if i really wanted to lose the gun.

 

[Ripper]

I did do it, that was a trick question! I've got more ammo but didn't have an 870 that I've been eyeballing anyway! I only had $75 in the ammo, so yea... I jumped on it! Came NIB as if I walked out of the store with it

Dont feel bad some gunforum-douchknuckle offered me a canoe for one of my EBR's.....


and not a nice canoe it was some beat up old junk canoe..

 

[daddymikey1975]

You scored the remington and only had to give up some ammo? Sweet deal IMO.

[SaintsNSinners]

Only offer I got was a canoe..... can't even get a nibble on my Bushnell scope even with adding bacon boot..


But yes I use doucheknucle.

When I read your first post I thought heck, pick me Ill do it. Good trade.

 

[old timer]

Reallllly nice trade, wish I had tradin pardners like that. Seems I always buy high and haffta sell low.

 

[Ripper]

I thought for sure that when he asked if I'd make a trade it would be something like...

"Hay men. I gotsa 15" Lanzer Sub an 100 VHS movy's i will trade ya? Lets me no!"

God knows I've had my share of those!

Not this guy... He just wanted some ammo and already purchased a semi-auto shotty to replace the 870. So worked out good for both of us I guess?

 

[THard6]

so you had about $150 in ammo, and wouldn't trade it?
I would have..

 

[hoosierdoc]

I'm confused. Aren't we supposed to be bashing OP for proving a wanted product at the buyer's price? I can't keep track of the changing winds

I too have 500 round .223 I'll swap for an 870. Heck, I'll do 520

 

[snorko]

I found a case of S&B green tip in my garage, forgot I had it. Anyone want to trade me a couple AK's?

 

[pirate]

Where is this deal had and how do I get there?

No no no... I totally took it! We're both very happy parties at this time. Now 2-3 months from now I can't say that he will still be happy as the ammo will most likely have been spent and he's left with empty brass... Keep in mind I did not initiate this trade, he did!

 

[Hiserman79]

Ah those unprepared panic buyers do love to line the pockets. I personally think its a bunch of bull when folks bash people for gouging. The buyers set the price. Even better in your case they came asking you! Good for you man, hopefully the trade purposer remains happy and good for him too. It's a good deal no matter what if both parties agree to the terms!
