    Question for the Wire Classifieds

    in SASS Wire Classifieds

    Posted

     

     

    Some very informative and well thought out responses from everyone. Getting closer to the question I was asking with every post.  Every buyer is on a budget but not every buyers budget is the same.  Or you could say we all bargain hunt but what is considered a bargain is different for everyone.

     

    For me, after years of experience of chasing those bargains, buy once, cry once is my motto now.  But I still look for that elusive true bargain!:D

     

    Thanks for all the input so far,

    Question for the Wire Classifieds

    What the wire is saying so far is there is no value in good action jobs.  Yet we know that the SASS gunsmiths are all busy doing action jobs that people are paying for right now. Plus there is additional money being spent on shipping to & from the smith if they buy them with no action job. 

     

    What I was wondering if there is a larger market for tuned guns or stock guns. Your saying same guns with no action job or with a quality action job will have the same market share. That there won't be more buyers for tuned guns than stock guns. Interesting if true, that is why I asked the question.

    spelling

    I am asking this in the classifieds because here is where the buyers are and I would like to know their opinions.

     

    If you were in the market for a pair of Stainless SASS Vaqueros', in 357/38, with the original box.  Would you rather they had an action job by a known and respected by top shooters, or be stock but have been shot smooth during their life. 

     

    If you would prefer an action by a know SASS Smith how much more would you pay?

     

    Things  consider is  the lower price without the smith work if you can do it yourself.

    Or the additional freight to and from a smith plus the cost of his work if you buy them without action work and you want action work done.

     

    I ask this question because I will be a seller in the future. I can sell them without work or sell them after work done by a known SASS smith. I don't have to sell them, but we will never get to shoot them in the future. I live within driving distance of a someone who can do the work and the wait won't be unbearable.

     

    Remember this is a question for a shooter who is in the market for guns like described above.

     

    So what says the Wire?

    Have problems hearing spoken words over the background noise on my TV. My son tells me a sound bar would help, something about one with a center channel. Don't know what I need or where to look. I also don't want to pay a lot of money. Anybody here been through this? Thought you might watching old westerns. Can anybody offer any suggestions or point me in the right direction?

     

    Thanks in advance for your help,

    Any body carry a rememberance of some kind of one of their pets?

    This past April I lost my second best friend to an untimely death. He was a Labradoodle/ Australian Shepard cross. He was a very independent 5 year old who was just coming into his own. Loved him dearly, miss him and still love him dearly. Some how his stomach turned and he died of bloat, I had never even heard of it at the time.

     

    Anyway he was the first dog that I ever lost before he was expected to go. I am looking for some kind of remembrance to carry with me as though he is by my side. Can't wear a necklace, would possibly get used to some kind of bracelet. Any suggestions you might have would be greatly appreciated.

     

    By the way his name was Cody
