gunshows seem inflated-when trading,seller often gets out his "book" whereas a similar item on his table is overly priced. i quit going because getting a fair deal anymore is just about nil.they dont want your gun unless they can make at least 100 off you.ive seen toys,pocket knives and flea bitten used clothing at shows.been "sharked" at the door,only to find my sold gun selling double on someones table.there are some good deals walking around and some dealers will give you a fair price but overall,its become a place to get ammo and accessories,odds ends.
