Default Anybody here get this one?

http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=291862449

32" G grade 12g. F/F

I was watching this one closely and considering trying to pick it up. But it had over 3" of drop and would not have been suited for me. I was really expecting it to sell for more than the $800 that it brought.

Did any of us end up with it?

Wow. Sounds like you should have been watching it a bit closer Brian. That's a hell of a buy for that. Wonder what frame size it is. Looks to me to just need a good cleaning from the looks of the screw slots.

Richard, it has a 1 or 1 1/2 frame buttplate. In that serial number range, I would think it is a 1 1/2 frame. Nice gun and 32". I guess we missed the boat.

Brian, For a man with your tallent I would think at $800 it would go in the closet for a rainy day project! Don't mean to poke you when your down, we all have Parker regrets.

When a seller won't even offer a 3 day return policy that's enough for me not to bid.

Bob ,I have to agree ,any time I sell a gun ,I expect the buyer to be completly satisfied ,if it isn't what he expected ,he needs the option to be able to return it ! Been burnt once by a non returnable seller ,and that will be the last time for me ! Best ; Russ

Well I was watching it closely and would have been picking it up for that price if I have the extra cash to spend right now. With 3.5" of drop at heel, it would be hard pressed for anyone that could use it as is.
Would need a stock bend or restock. Got a few of those going right now.

Was on my watch list, but after buying two Foxes in the last three weeks I decided the bank account couldn't take another hit.
