depends,
I know of an appliance repair guy that has a helluva collection of old firearms,
he is probably retired now, but told me once he would go to a person's house that needed something fixed, or replaced, and would end up with a shotgun or rifle as a partial or complete payment,
his business was out in the sticks, no big town for 90 minutes or so, and to some old folks, that might as well be like going to the moon
