Upcoming Auction
 

The Amoskeag Auction Company has put an ad in the upcoming winter issue of Parker Pages to let our members know about some very nice Parkers that will be available in their auction this Saturday November 19th. Unfortunately due to some delays some members may not receive their copy in time so I wanted to post it here on our website so that anyone who might be interested would have a chance to check them out. Their website can be found at http://www.amoskeagauction.com/86/auction86T.html.

I knew I shouldn't have looked. Good thing I'll be deer hunting Saturday:)

A minty .410 VHE & a very nice 20 bore CH. Starting prices seem a bit high though.

Best Regards, George

Oh my! It would be good day to be wealthy! I could spend some serious money on that auction.

BTW: I don't see any prices. Just pics. What am I missing??

George,

Those prices are nothing compared to how I see you price stuff. *chuckles*

George's Guns
 

Destry: (aka Falstaff, aka Chuckles) You seem to have a large problem with how I price the guns that I wish to sell, however, I've never seen the pricing on any gun that you were selling. I wonder why? Do you only bottom feed for the "clunkers" or would you ever seriously entertain the purchase of a really fine gun. I try to price the guns that I wish to sell fairly, perhaps sometimes a bit on the high side, but I am always open to offers and am willing to negotiate. I'm sorry, but I have never seen what I call a positive post from you and that's a shame. You obviously are somewhat knowledgeable about Parkers.

Best Regards, George

They have a catalog online with more information:

Thanks. That worked. I looked at them all. It's settled.... I couldn't make enough money in the rest of my life to pay for what I'd like to have from just this auction!

Yup, the field grade Parker .410 sold for thirty large plus 17.5% buyer's premium. Everything else that I would have bid on went higher than I would have paid. This is good news as far as I am concerned. The market for serious guns is not affected by the present economy. Only junk is depressed. Junk is for shooting and it should be priced for the masses. Welcome to the real world where young and poor people interested in side by sides can fill their gun cabinets with great guns for little money.
