When a friend of mine had to liquidate her deceased Fathers guns,,,
She asked me if there were any that I wanted to own.
I knew what she had as I had helped her catalog/clean/price them.
There were four revolvers I was interested in:
Hawes (?) Western Marshall in .357 Magnum.
Dakota SAA clone in .357 Magnum.
Colt Trooper Mk-III in .357 Magnum.
S&W 36 Snubbie in .38 Special.
I told her of the guns I liked,,,
But also said that I didn't have much disposable money at the time.
All I could afford to spend was $500.00 cash.
So I picked the Model 36 and the Dakota and asked if that would be enough,,,
The next day she delivered all four revolvers to me and said the $500 was enough.
Basically $125.00 per gun.
Later she sold me a Rossi 911 in .22 LR for another $125.00.
I almost felt that I had ripped her off badly,,,
But then again we had both determined higher market values form the Blue Book.
She was satisfied and I was ecstatic.
