Decent deal or not?

It doesn't seem to be too bad a deal, assuming no one bids on it and the final price = the start price. I'd prefer that gun in 6.5CM but nothing wrong w/308. Seekins makes good stuff. Additionally, USO still supports their older scope lines, regardless of where or when it was made so if the scope shits the bed, USO will warranty repair it.
 
I agree. It's not a new rifle. Would you pay sticker price for a used car?

Gunbroker is retarded. It's where you go to find the maximum upper end of what firearms sell for. It's not the place you go to bargain shop. I can probably count on one hand even the OK deals I've seen over the last ten years.

I don't know a single broker/store who buys anything off it, but most of them sell on it, because it's so big a market that there are a ton of suckers who want something and will pay a premium not to have to actually hunt for it.
