I recently sold a couple of guns at Cabelas. They came right out and told me that what they do is mark them up 30%. If that proves true then they would have paid about $38,500 for any double they are selling for $50,000. They marked up the two I sold them in just this manner and are now selling them for more then they are worth. I guess that's why so many of their guns are overpriced.

I recovered what I paid for the guns but "buyer beware". One of the guns I sold them had a famous maker's name but some real problems that the Cabelas buyer didn't see. Nothing unsafe but some things that were poor quality and others that needed attention -- like some expensive stock work to make it shootable. But the gun looked good and the buyer loved the name. I was faced with the choice of costly repair to "make the gun right" or to sell it at a loss. Cabelas was an easy out. I have heard rumors that some of the bigger dealers also use this method of disposing of poor quality merchandise by allowing their big competitor purchase it. So be careful of what you buy without closely inspecting it.
