I mean, really, if you are on this forum you already have a device capable of delivering to you all the information you need to make a good purchacing decision.

At the local LGS you see a beautiful S&W model 0-2/3. Guy wants $350 for it. Look on line, lots of sites, there is a big one out of Atlanta I google a lot, is $350 high, middle, low?

Buy it, try to haggle, don't buy it. But don't complain you are being gouged if they are avalible online for $250. Buy it there, have it shipped ($35) pay the transfer fee ($35) and be happy you saved $100.
