Back to the thread subject, today's JJ auction was a great one to listen to on Proxbid. I watch the site, listen to the auction and always try to bid by phone.
I wish that I had some basic knowledge re all of those great English SXS, but am not sure I want to put the years into the education, which would include several bad buys-My first Parker had the receiver blued...and after several years and five books I have just scratched the surface-which is what make this site so valuable.
I did buy the F. Beesley (2231) 20 with case after speaking to a few PGCA who are English double collectors and feel (OK, hope) I got a deal on the Parker GH Damascus (2443) at 5.5K.
