This is the most famous shotgun in America, the fame of the Czar's Parker wasn't a pimple on the back end of Bo-Whoop. The Czar's Gun was never owned or touched by the Czar, Bo-Whoop is a gun that was shot and used by the most beloved American sporting writer that ever lived. I'd say the difference is pretty vast.
I doubt it was the ugly restock that turned off the potential bidders. It was that weird basement done stamping on the tubes, questions of ownership, authenticity, and provenance.
