I wish to second what Mr Allen said. If you wish to sell your guns, do it yourself. He suggested the internet, I used friends, both personal and dealer. In the past year I sold 5 guns, 4 Parkers and one refinished antique double rifle. The Parkers were described by my dealer friend as very nice conditioned honest guns. None were high grade. I received $27,000 with no commisions, shipping fees or FFL charges. A number of years ago I used Julias to sell a pre 64 model 70 supergrade in 250 3000, a consecutive pair of black box Colt Buntlines and a Winchester pre war tournament grade model 21. I lost money on all 3 item. I would never use an auction house. I dare say on the guns I recently sold, I would have been lucky to clear $15,000 had I used an auction house,
