Far from the case. With 240,000 Parker guns built and a long history of market value information tracked over the years, and also a wide offering of Parkers for sale on the internet at any given time leaves little to question on market values of commonly found Parkers. Trojan up through, for the sake of argument, C or B grade. And there are good track records of performance of higher grade guns in auction houses.
Top grade original Parkers also fall into the category of “worth what someone will pay” because there are far less examples out there and pricing them can be difficult and no one really knows where the ceiling may be for those high grade examples.
Like i said, these “upgrades” are custom guns, not originals, that were put together in limited numbers and in varying levels of quality. So, again, they are not easy to assign a general value to. And there is not a established matket for them.
If someone here has experience in buying or selling one of these guns, then they may be willing to share. Maybe you??? Do you want to share what you paid for yours?
Until one of those two things happen, your repetitive question will have to remain unanswered.
