[QUOTE="Glock 'em down, post: 805979, member: 684"] Well...curses! [img]http://www.okshooters.com/forums/images/smilies/pissed.gif[/img] The other day, I found yet another one of my "grail" guns in another local toy store. :grumble: It's a Smith & Wesson 4 inch model 66 [B]NO DASH![/B] :hypnotize: I've fondled it a couple of days ago, saw the $495 price tag - not bad. But...you know me! :ugh2: I thought I could get it cheaper! :faint: I walked in with cash in hand today and the modell 66 is still there! [img]http://www.okshooters.com/forums/images/smilies/new/w000t.gif[/img] I ask to "fondle" it some more. He hands me the 66 and I see the $495 price tag on it and say to myself "[i]heh, heh, heh[/i]...watch this!" [img]http://www.okshooters.com/forums/images/smilies/new/rubhands.gif[/img] So I pop off to the guy, "uh...what's your bottom dollar on this old, worn out six-shooter?" [img]http://www.okshooters.com/forums/images/smilies/rolleyes2.gif[/img] The guy looks at the tag, points and says, "that's it." I say, "Awww! C'mon, now! Surely you can come off that a little bit." He says, "nope...I gotta have $495 plus tax." I pull out [b]FOUR[/b] Ben Franklins and a U.S. Grant, plop 'em down on the counter and say, "I'll give ya $450 out the door." Again, he says, "nope...I gotta have $495 plus tax." I BS him a little more, tell him this is the best deal he's gonna see today, he probably ain't sold nuthin' all week, the gun is older than he is, this is all the allowance my momma will let me have...[img]http://www.okshooters.com/forums/images/smilies/new/blahblah.gif[/img] He stands firm on his price. Sadly, I lay down the 66, pick up my cash and walk out the door. [img]http://www.okshooters.com/forums/images/smilies/new/cry3.gif[/img] Bastardo! [img]http://www.okshooters.com/forums/images/smilies/new/explode.gif[/img] So, with my tail between my legs and as much dignity as I can muster, I go to my [i]other[/i] toy store, where my 3 inch model 13-3 is in lay-away, waiting to be set free. I walk in, pay it's balance and get it out of hock. So...I didn't get the 66 but I got my 3 inch model 13. :woohoo1: I reckon every cloud has a silver lining. :D [/QUOTE]
