But I can tell you, although it hasn't happened during a FTF with an OSA member, it pisses me off to the point I will just walk away when I meet an Armslist buyer after all the emails agreeing on a price, only to have them try and lowball during the transaction. I was selling a Springfield SS Mil-Spec 1911 last year and told the buyer I was firm on the asking price and provided excellent pictures. This guy tells me he understands and that my price is well below what it would cost elsewhere. He drives from OKC, looks the gun over and tells me everything looks great. He pulls his wallet out and tells me he only brought this much with him ( 50.00 less than my asking price), I told him to have a safe trip back to OKC, got in my truck and drove home. My thought has always been.... A closed mouth never gets fed, but don't expect me to be the one that feeds you..</blockquote>
