Yes, always carry a $100 bill folded away in my wallet. Either they will hold it for a few minutes till I can get back with cash or on occasion had the shop turn down a purchase from a seller and offer me the opportunity to buy it. It’s amazing what you can buy for a crisp $100 bill. Well, not on the ODT, everything here is at least tree fiddy

this. I once got a small pile of shotguns and 22s because the shop didn't want them and was cool with me making an offer. $75 for the pile. cleaned them, fixed them, gave to family for christmas.

similar, friend of a friend wanted to sell a significant bunch of medium-end guns to make payroll for his company. Didn't want to pawn and get hosed. Knew I'd be able to have the cash on hand to make a deal happen, so we did. It's how I ended up with a free springfield M1A socom...

Usually the exit. But I did buy my first AR15 at one. Factory BCM for $800. Still got the rifle and it's my favorite full size. Crazy thing is the shop was pushing me towards some piece together for 1300.

I bought a Leupold vari x 3 6.5x20x50 matte finish in excellent condition about 2004 for $250.00 out the door!

got some nice Morgan silver dollars for $20/each.

Gotta be careful of the counterfeits, lots of them floating around.

About 7 years ago I picked up a S&W 1911 PD 5" at a local pawn shop that advertised it for sale here. I think it was $550. Still have it. I shot it at a South Carolina Steel Challenge State Championship (2015) and came in Second. Bone stock and I got a little plaque!

Ruger 10/22 for $60 @ a pawn shop in Seaside California (before it turned into COMMIEfornia) in 1987.
Had more rounds run through it than Gadgetsrfun has ever shot in his life.
My son now owns it with a new barrel and other new parts.
Of course, it still shoots like a dream.
