They can ask it, but they aint getting it. At least from me. 2020 there was a ton of deals on here. Not seeing it anymore.

Would it be better with 2 pages of Bersa and Highpoint

High Point, NO! Bersa Yes! I love my Bersa 380

No but there are plenty quality pistols in the $500-$700 range which were more common on BS in the past.

I've always wondered how one could expect to get more for their used pistol, when you can pickup the same item new for less. Unless it's a high demand/no inventory item, some of these people must be high.

What may be high for some may not be for others. Economics 101. Prices are based on what people are willing to pay.

Being butt hurt about what people want for their item won’t change anything. Sit back and let economics work and the price may fix itself. Then again, if someone really wants it, you may lose out.

They dont seem to understand that here.

The problem with that thought process is that the folks who it isnt high for likely cant purchase them new... there is no real reason you can dream up to explain selling a pistol for more than one can purchase a new one for other than catering to individuals who cant legally purchase one new in a store with a bavkground check. I'll be waiting for just one GOOD reason.

It has been some time but they used to have ads posted regularly that were over retail new for used and stated something close to.

Glock whatever shot 400-500 rounds. So I have broken it in so no need to. Uncle Mike holster and half box ammo.

So the assumption was. They spent the time and money on all that ammo and broke it in. So you are saving money on ammo and have a reliable weapon I assume. Plus you get this great sub par holster to open carry and be an instant deep. Plus the half to full box of FMJ ammo so you have a compleate starter kit.

I personally like the idea of some of my acquisitions not being recorded. Some don't like to acknowledge the truth, but a 4473 is a de-facto registration of purchases with the local dealer being the file clerk.

With that said, I have yet to pay full retail for used. Hell, I don't even like paying full retail for new!

A bunch of manufacturers are doing rebates with pistols right now. Canik, Beretta, CZ, Taurus.

If anyone on here really believes a purchase between 2 individuals over an internet forum isn't recorded they are sorely mistaken. Every single thing you type on here or any other forum etc. is retained even if you go back and edit it later.

This is why I wear my foil hat, and say nothing but nice things about those fine young public servants at the NSA.

I second this. I work in IT. I am a programmer. Everything you type online is recorded and everything you say within listening distance of your smart phone is being listened too. Want proof, start talking about buying something near your phone then watch the online ads start following you about what you were talking about.

Yea, but, . . . , In order for it to matter, I've got to care. I know I'm probably on several lists. I just don't care.
If they've got nothing better to do than to spy on me, they've got a dull job. I'd pity them.

But hey, . . . , That's not the fine public servants at the NSA. That's those other alphabet people who couldn't make the NSA cut.

Hmm, so should I make a recording about how much I LOVE our government and all its agencies and play it over and over near my phone?

Just don't say anything good about those POGS at the FBI. They couldn't find their way out of a wet paper bag with a compass and a map.

Not like those fine, intelligent people at the NSA.

Hate to break it to you, but those Alphabet people are way more tech savy than the federal government. Which is why the feds use them.

The foolproof recipe for BS handgun classified ads goes something like this:

1. Buy a stock Glock. Pay full MSRP for it.
2. Install a lot of aftermarket parts in it.
3. Make irreversible physical alterations to the gun such as undercutting or stippling. Cerakoting the slide is also a good idea. Barrel should be yet another different color.
4. Don't actually shoot it.
5. List it on BS for an exorbitant price.
