I too have transacted Sells and Buys with Barry Martin over 20years. Mixed bag; he likes to Buy the parts low and sell high...while I wanted&needed the cash. I usually set the price.
Sometimes I think he shoulda bought some items (70 Formula 12Bolt posi for $175) but he passed up.
Other times he bought parts at full retail from me and was seemingly grateful that I had the part.
Pretty sure he's a businessman first when he's at the track swapmeets. Saw him at Maple Grove and we said hi, and talked a bit about Bud Lyon's Q-Jet. (1974 455 T/A carb, over the counter exact replacement carb made in 1981)...Barry said "let me know if he wants to sell it".
