Default What do shooter quality damascus/laminate etc lower grade hammer parkers go for?

I am thoroughly enjoying my knew parker VH 12 gauge. Refinishing the stock has been a learning experience but very fun.

Unfortunately it has lead to a disease that I first encountered with colt revolvers. After you buy one it isn't very long before you start thinking about getting your next one. When I bought this one, I had thought about looking for a Fox or maybe an old english double, but after looking at prices/rarity and viewing some of the lovely damascus hammer guns on this forum, I am becoming very interested in a damascus hammer parker.

Unfortunately I have no clue what you should budget and save to acquire one of these fine guns. I have read lots of comments that they can be gotten for less money then hammerless steel parkers, but I am not certain that is accurate. I definitely don't expect to stumble across any $95 guns as one lucky soul on this forum did.

I love the patterns in most of the guns I have seen on here, not even sure I can afford one, but I would like some reference on where to start. I will continue reading through the forum but was curious if someone could give me some info.

Also, any info on what to watch out for on hammered damascus barrels vs. hammerless parkers would be appreciated.

Thanks!
