Default Two Dealers, Same Gun?

Was going through the Parkers for sale on GI today and noticed this 30-inch VH-Grade for sale by Cheaper Than Dirt for $4497 --

I bet you are getting a better gun if you buy at the higher price.

How could the same gun be better?

I think that was meant as a wee bit of humor

The owner of Cheaper than Dirt (I can't remember his name off hand) has bought a bunch of guns from Steve and other dealers and individuals several years ago. I sold him two Parkers. I think he has put them up for sale then consigned them to Steve and not removed his listing.

What caught my eye on the first listing was the Remington repair code on the barrel flat --

228600 01 VH-Grade, 16-Gauge, 30-inch, CNN3 C = April, NN = 1944.jpg

and the fact that it has an Ilion-era stock --

228600 10 Ilion Stock.jpg

228600 09 Ilion Stock.jpg

Items which neither description mentions.
