Rug pulled, hopes dashed, dreams shattered....
« on: March 05, 2012, 10:01:46 AM »
So I struck up a deal with a guy on Armslist to trade. We've been working on it for the last couple weeks via email. Lives about an hour away. I'm mentally prepared to trade a rifle I really like for a handgun I've also wanted, plus a bunch of ammo. Ready to meet-up today, email to verify things. Send me back an email saying no deal, sold it to his son-in-law. Did offer my another rifle in trade, but nothing I was really interested in. Grrrr.................

And that right there is why I don't trade horses anymore.

When I'm holding cash money I can get what I want.

My problem is that if I sell it for cash, there is a greater chance that the monies will go towards bills or otherwise frittered away (not that paying bills is a bad thing, necessarily), and I end up with one-less gun in my collection. So been trying to use the trade route to ensure that I'm not losing a weapon. But, yeah, I get what your saying TG.
