Bought for 500, selling for 300

[edsinger]

Wow, I like mine but $300 even for a sucker is too much. Bad thing is he made himself look like a dufus for paying $500....

I would not sell mine, it works just fine and I paid $130 in 2006

 

[Shoots4Fun]

Maybe he forgot to mention it was gold plated...

 

[Claddagh]

Just an observation, but just because this douche claims that he paid $500 doesn't make it true, or even remotely credible. My guess would be that he's simply trolling for idiots in the hope of turning a huge profit on his White Elephant.

Email so far:

Me:
Haha. 500 bucks for a hipoint.
Him:
Yeah bought it 3 years ago at a gunshow Me:
How many rounds do you have through it?
Him (thinks I mean what size magazine?):
standard 8
Me:
no I mean how many times have you fired it?
Him:
i've only used it twice to practice just have it for self protection in the home but now I have 2 boys and I dont want it in the house.


Any other questions I should ask him?

ask him why he feels his need to protect himself has passed now that he has children. are they extremely large children?

 

[Sasquatchhunter]

Well i guess my 119 dollar C9 was just a steal then...

I thought of that but I want to focus on the stupidly high price of the pistol, not on his reason for selling it.

Are you seriously interested in buying it? If not, why not just drop it and move on?

Does it make you feel good to make fun of someone's ignorance?

i dont think hes so much ignorant as a would be con artist.

 

[Walter Zoomie]

A dude at Eagle Creek today was thrashing his High Point .45.
Ugliest POS I ever saw...(I mean the gun)...and it looked like a bloated Desert Eagle with birth defects.
About every other round it jammed on him.

 

[2cool9031]

You beat me to it

Either that or he went to Don's

I was just going to say that

 

[2cool9031]

If he paid $500.00 for a HighPoint...That tells me he is too stupid to deal with.

 

[CombatVet]

He had to of went to Don's. I remember seeing them there for that price when I thought Don's Guns and Walmart where the only 2 places in Indiana that sold guns.

 

[IndyGunworks]

I am still waiting on crystalship to come into this thread and tell us how fair that price is....

I think we found who it belongs to...


goColt...this was just a little ribbing. I didn't mean to insinuate you were either ignorant of the cost of a hi-Point or a con man. If anyone else thought I was serious...sorry about that. My apologies.

 

[redneckpastor]

ha ha ya i think i am just going to say IBTL

Same here, I haven't seen him on here for a while though. I wonder what happened to him?

I don't think it's ignorance....it's an out and out LIE. If it was ignorance...yeah I'd make fun of that too. HA HA HA

HAHAHHAHAHA!!!!!!!! Nice.

Could have been the victim of the dreaded Hi-Point explosion. (see Glock)
