The gun shop only offered him $2,200 for all the guns (had to be 40+ guns, including a .50bmg rifle).
He went to another waltham gun shop where he got close to $20k for them (which is at least in the ball park).
long ago and far away, I brought about a dozen modern guns to Kittery Trading post.
they offered me a very good cash deal, and offered me a larger amount if I would take it in store credit, which I did, since my wife and I wanted a pair of ocean kayaks and all the gear needed for them.
IMO a place like KTP will give you the best price for a bulk trade in since they are larger, have a bigger turnover, and (probably) more cash in the bank then the local gun shop would.
I've never taken anything to KTP, but I have heard they are very reasonable when it comes to trade-ins.
I think the profit margin on used guns is much higher than new guns, so an investment of 20k in used guns to get 30k seems to be a pretty good deal for the shop. Was mostly modern commercial rifles and pistols.
Yup - they are. They'll also tell you out right it they aren't interested in what you've got.
It's not an insult to low ball someone. It's just business.

Why do people think they are owed a reasonable offer? And why do they take the lack of as a personal insult?
If they don't like what they are offered, keep on walking......

I believe they tried putting a screwing on LenS a while back.
