Here is a nice gun that I have some interest in. I believe that the gun is on other sites and in the store the price is $2,999.

I like this gun but think it over priced. This seems to be whats out there plus the problem of such prices onguns in rough shape. Some people say prices are down but that is not my experience. When I go to the shooters bible type places prices are much lower than i see and when people give values on this forum I never see such prices and I would jump at the chance to buy guns at those estimates. Early on, the Internet was a good resource but now it is really ridiculous at times.
I live in a rural area so I don't see a lot of Parkers so I may have a disadvantage. My thoughts were that with the economy we may see more guns hit the market and prices be better but I do not think that is the case.
I feel i am not so much a collector but a big accumulator as i have many varied type guns. I am unloading some here and there for SxS s .As with any collectable 1/2 the fun and reward is in the search. And by no means have I shied away from paying the price for something I really wanted.
I posted this just to get a sense of bearing from others so I'm interested in anyones thoughts.
Thanks
