speaking of auctions
 

I hope it was one of you fellow forum members who out did my sealed bid (was away today so took a shot) on this one

I feel your pain Rick.

In my opinion their estimated value was waaay low but I'm sure you didn't use that figure in determining your bid amount.

Tough loss.

no - I also bid on one Friday - I was around so it was phone bid - when i told the young lady who was handling it i would bid up to 6K she says - you know the estimate is only 1400 :rotf:

i told her I knew that - it went for 8k

my top sealed bid on this Parker would have been bumped twice to the 3K selling price

Yep, I got that.

nice looking hammer 16.....charlie

I bid 1525.00 at open and it flew to 3K in a heartbeat and ended very guickly

If you want it you've got to go in heavy.

I have 48795, Also a Grade 2.

Edgar, That is a fine looking gun, what is the barrel length? Gary

There were some low estimates on other guns in that auction. Did anyone else see that project Super Fox? Top estimate $1,200 and hammer was $8,000. It included two other throwaway guns, but still
