When considering buying a Parker or used bespoke gun and you come to learn through your own research that the gun, in several aspects, is not original but the seller's asking price is if it is. I have interest in a gun but the wood, barrels and engraving are all not original. It's a freshly finished resto-mod at a market price for an all original gun. It seems like I'd be paying just for the name on the side of the gun. What's the best way to handle the price negotiation with the seller? The gun makes sense albeit at a lower price.
