When you get an estate sale is it normally a family selling the guns to you or do you get good and fair prices for them on a consignment type deal. Just curious cuz I need to update my will and need to include how I want my items dealt with.

we leave that up to the family. We ask them what they need

out of the guns. If they know what they need and they need the money and we can move them pretty quick, then we just buy them. If they are high then we put them on consignment. We usually tell them they are a bit high, sometimes higher than a new gun of the same make. So it is all according to what they want. Yesterday we had an estate offered to us but they looked on gunbroker at the same item and wanted that amount. We showed them that item had been on there several times and never got even one bid as they were too high, but that was what they wanted so they kept the guns. We always show the people the Blue Book of values and what it is worth and most let us price them to sell quick.
