Speaking in general terms, of course, that can certainly be said of most of those that have been 'personalized' in one form or another but there are exceptions to every rule. And I think these two disclaimers, "beauty is in the eyes of the beholder" and then there's "One man's trash is another man's treasure" might speak to such situations. I would "treasure" that one on gunbroker that I missed with the setter nicely carved into the stock on both sides. To me there was a real "beauty" in that gun.

Again, JMHO
