Parker prices at RI auction seemed strong?
 

With all the uncertainty in the world it seems Parker prices at the Rock Island Auction last weekend were strong but not outrageous? I was not a player but it's always fun to sit on my hands. What say U?

I watched (some). The DHE 28 gauge went for less than I anticipated.

I thought it might go alittle higher also but it brought $22,375 with the 17.5% buyers premium. Their estimate was 15 to 25000. It really wasn't much of a collector piece but would have made a nice gun to take out in the field or sporting clays. They sold a much better VHE-28 ga. in the auction.

I did bid on the repro DHE 2 brl 28 ga I have never owned a repro so I decided to go for it, hammered at 6000 of course buyers premium also so now I have one, look forward to shooting it, I guess the price was OK? Gary

I also liked the BHE 16ga but the BWT seemed a little to thin, so i passed on it Gary

Fair price and a great gun Gary.

I agree with Dan, Gary. You did well, and I think you’ll enjoy shooting it. I know I sure like mine.

I agree Gary - .016-.018” MWT is not a gun anyoue should buy with plans to shoot it.

I thought the VH-410 ( lot 507)might have sold alittle higher than $25000 but it wasn't in the best condtion to get the collector price.

Certainly not like the VHE .410 Skeet gun in the last Guyette & Deeter auction that hammered at $66k…
