Sell. At almost 81 and no collectors in the family it is time to sell my 2 (or maybe 3) Parkers. Don't want them to end up in a pawn shop.

Thanks.

John: Where are you located? Do you know the value on the Parkers that you wish to sell? If not perhaps the folks here could give you a good idea. If your Parkers are of a high grade and/or small bore I definitely would not offer them for auction without a reserve. I have used several auction houses to both buy & sell and there is a difference. Check your PMs. E-mail at palmettotreasure@aol.com or Phone (803) 359-3351 anytime.
Best Regards, George

In this kind of economy you may be taking a chance going to auction, I would recommend you consign to a dealer that handles higher end collectables, two that come to mind are Puglisi guns or Steve Barnett, both charge the same or a little less then the auction houses and they will get you top dollar. Also look at your pm's
