Gun show prices are usually quite high. You can dicker with these guys and make an offer. U have 3 choices:

1. Buy from a Gun Store..you can dicker here as well, and many Dealers are now on line as well.

2. Buy on line..

A. Gun Broker
B Guns America
C Guns International
D Gun Runner
E. From an on line dealer..like Collectors Arms in Houston (he will deal on price)

3 Buy from an Auction Many times the Brick and Mortar auctions also are running their auction concurrently on line as well
A Brick an Mortar...like O Gallery in Portland
B Proxibid
C Art Fact..

You can negotiate price except in an auction setting..then that days Bidder Pool will determine the market. For most spoons the price does not vary by more than $50 at any auction from coast to coast...whether it is on line or not. Usually it is only on rare, antique and desirable items that bidding can get carried away. The general rule is to do your homework to find what your item generally sells for..check prices realized at auction and or asking prices on Gun Broker, Guns America etc. Then be patient and wait in the weeds for a good deal to come along. Remember there will always be another one coming along next week.

Generally people will overpay for the cheap stuff and the big $$$ stuff goes at smaller auctions fairly reasonably
