I never chat with guys in the parking lot of gun shows walking with a case... but I just blurted out.. "looks like you are having fun, anything interesting? "
his reply was "Only if Smith & Wesson's are interesting ".. pulls out a nice shooter grade 25-2 6 inch... "guy wants to maybe trade for it.. my table is in other building..." and off he went.. saw the other guy fondling it and smiled at the guy.. about 30 minutes later he was back at his table with the gun.. examined it closer.. some muzzle wear.. not nice scratch on barrel.. Hogue rubber grips.. but generally ok shooter condition.. inquired asking price.. "some revolver guys told me 900-1200.. I am thinking 1000..." no box, no tools, no grips... I politely said "not today"... did I screw up?
but on my way out original trade guy was fondling it again..
