When I lived in El Paso my favorite gun store had an original 1863 Sharps carbine conversion (in very good shape) for $2500, that was over a year ago. On a whim I called to see if they still have it, not only do they still have it they offered to sell it to me for $1500...... Funds are still a little tight but I could probably do it, maybe........
Decisions, decisions.......

No it's not a repo, held it and inspected it numerous times when I lived down there, it's an original, it's in very good shape and the bore is clean though somewhat worn as would be expected. The problem for most collectors is it may be the fact that it has Japanese Imperial stamps on it (Late 1800s surplus arms sale to Japan), I find that rather unique. It may be the owner has passed on (it's been on consignment) and they just want to get rid of it or the owner told them to get what they can for it.
Obviously you wouldn't understand and in very good condition they can go for up to $6K, there's not that many left. This is one piece (the type of carbine) I've been wanting to add to my collection for at least a decadeWhen I lived in El Paso my favorite gun store had an original 1863 Sharps carbine conversion (in very good shape) for $2500, that was over a year ago.

If funds are tight, then why would you spend money on something that is just there.
If the store has lowered the price this might mean it'd be hard for you to move it on at a similar price in the future, which could cause problems.
Stuff is stuff after all.

Don't worry, if I buy it we'll only have to eat ashes and wear sackcloth for a couple of months...........
No we won't, tight in this case means holding off another month or two on new tires for my truck, delaying buying a new laptop for the wife. We're not talking living on mac and cheese and Ramen noodles plus feeding the cats garbage for six months besides I also would prefer using cash not credit to purchase it, that's what I mean by tight.
Someone who's had it on the market for a couple of years with no takers besides this one's not in the very good category it's in the average good category. It was listed for $2500, the typical low end price. Besides, they remember me coming in often and drooling over it. Also it's a consignment, elderly lady who's husband has passed on and by now maybe she has also and the shop just want's to get rid of it.Obviously you wouldn't understand and in very good condition they can go for up to $6K, there's not that many left.

So if they can go for $6,000, who'd sell it for $1,500?

I knew that.
I'm eating noodles anyways. Noodles with WalMart chicken and "California Blend" vegetables.
I've been collecting for twenty years as well as reenacting for twenty five years, pretty sure I know at least a little bit about this.......

(Yeah, I'm a stinker......)
Ain't that sweet, the creature takes itself seriously because it reads into everything I say taking it all out of context to make it's own argument. Kinda like it does across the board.........
