In
recent years we at River Junction have experienced a phenomena that seems to
be pleasurable for both my customer and myself. That is making a mail order
trade. When this idea was first presented to me by one of my customers, long
since lost to my memory, I wasn't too sure how well it would work, but we have
found that it is quite an effective business tool. Basically what it boils down
to is if you have any of the types of items that are mentioned on my 'Wanted
to Trade For" list or anything that might fall into the category of being
American West, either antique or reproduction, I will probably have some interest
in it. Usually the way this works is the customer decides the value of an item
he has, talks to me briefly about it on the telephone. If I give him the indication
that I think I may be interested at the price he has in mind, he sends that
item to me for inspection. If I am satisfied, the merchandise that he wants
is treated just like any other order and is forwarded to him immediately, if
we have it in stock. If not we make it up to his specifications.
Some of the
items that I have traded for are: antique saddle bags, antique holsters,
keywind antique watches, muzzle loading reproduction rifles, cap and ball
revolvers, antique or sometimes modern spurs, antique police items such
as night sticks and badges.
