im not trying to start a debate or anything, but a BNIB Glock 19 Gen 4 shouldn't be worth any less than you could buy at any venue, whether its Academy or from an online vendor.
i may be in the minority here, but asking $550 for something that has not been shot, holstered or even fondled is fair market value. not to mention that if you were to buy from Academy there's still taxes to pay, the wait time, etc ... and if you were to buy online, there's still shipping (in some cases) and transfer charges.
again, i am not trying to start a heated debate and i agree that $500 for a used FDE Gen 4 G19 is a good deal and even better since you got it for $475, heck, if you didn't snag it up, i would've.
If the price of a gun is $550 plus tax new, then I would pay $550 for it on BS and save the $40-$50 tax.
If the price of a gun is $550 out the door, including tax or shipping and FFL fee, then why would I pay $550 here and have to arrange a meet up time around the sellers schedule, drive to them and take a chance on the unknown? When I could go at my convenience and pick it up at my FFL dealer?

I've met too many shady people on BS.
Must be bad luck. Everyone I've met have been good people. Maybe your too critical of others
by your statement, every gun is used... why pay new prices if no gun is new?
I agree with you and according to him it is not possible to purchase a new gun because it was test fired or a new automobile because it was driven to and from the car hauler, etc.
