I had tables at 'fun' shows for years, and one show after another seemed to have completely different patrons. Just this past year I had to liquidate my entire collection when my wife of 25 years moved out to stay with her girlfriend leaving me with nothing but months of utility bills she was supposed to have paid for.

I had to attend 6 shows selling everything I ever had, and I was happy to get the money at the time just to keep the lights on then. I was selling at very cheap prices but buyers across the board STILL acted the same way. I think most buyers at gun shows don't really have a clue, but a few really do know and I got market prices at the wholesale level or just above and I laughed inside at how 'some' people said I was a crook asking wholesale....

I always enjoyed selling and trading at gun shows just to hear the BS and all. Only made a few bucks back then but had fun with my friends selling around me.
