Personally I take offense to guys trying to buy firearms or collectibles out from under me at MY store.
I pay the rent, I have all the risk, I am not rich. Yet guys feel that they have a right to out bid me on guns that MY advertising dollars brought into the shop.
It costs me $6000.00 a month in overhead just to keep the doors open. Hard business indeed for a little guy. The only thing that keeps me afloat is the occasional quality collectible that has some margin in it.
Bottom line is if you try and wheel and deal on guns in my shop I will escort you out and will never welcome you back.
If i decide I am not interested in the item in question I will gladly allow anyone within ear shot to make a deal.
I think it was in poor taste to try and out bid the dealer. When there are no more dealers, there are no more gun shops.
