I think there just trolling to find a value. It's worth $35K to the guy that bought it from KTP no more no less.
Mark you shouldered one just like it at Hausmanns

one thing I learned a long time ago is you can't act as the buyer and seller both. the owner has to put a price on his merchandise. This is a very nice gun,but not unique.

If a gun is described well, with pictures, and the seller answers any questions that I might have or sends another angle of a picture I'm requesting, I usually bid. I have been pleased with the two guns I bought from Amoskeag, one from Rock Island, two from Redding, all are auction companies with a no return policy and bought them without attending the auction in person. I think just about all of the 100s of the Prox-Bid auctions also are "as is".

We may see this gun "sell" at a price that will be public. In a few days, it will reappear on some site to be resold, probably by the same seller. If someone wants to find out what it will sell for, that bad, he will bid it up and disappear.

The gun is sold from KTP a dealer of guns and the seller thinks he's going to flip it for a $15K profit! I don't know what he's drinking but please pass the bottle

Rich - the gun was not sold at Kittery Trading Post in Maine, but at a shop in Northwestern New Hampshire. Now it's in a shop in Western Pennsylvania.

That's what I get for thinking Either way it was sold from a place that had to have some idea of what it was. I'm sure they didn't pick the asking price out of thin air.
