Default more about "asking prices"

Much has been written, here and on other boards, mostly all valid Q&A's. There is no such thing as dumb questions, only misinformed answers. Having said that, the Blue Book, Standard Cat of Firearms are price GUIDES. Not etched in stone. A place to start--and sometimes finish. Guns are somewhat like cars. capeesh? Another good place to look is The Gun list, semi-monthly paper that most consider the "bible" of the trade. I would not waste my time or money on Shotgun News, a dealer's rag in my opinion.
Having said all that, and a "few" on this thread will not believe that IB can get-it-together, so to speak,
I suggest Amazon.com as the place to go for books--of any type. 25-50% off most all and no tax and Free shipping on orders over $25.

I like both of 'em, but more for description than price, I use guntrader for description also...for price I use the internet auctions on whats actually selling, and at what price (market bee's weird at times)...there is also a local rag called the "County Classifieds" that shows bought and sold prices...

I think this one of the signs.

IB, good info on the post. Now please don't shock us again, stick to your native language.
