There's nothing wrong with wanting to get top dollar for your gun, but I have to admit I grow weary of people feeling the need to squeeze every last cent out of the next guy. 5 years after you have sold it, will it really matter that you got $12,500 for it instead of $12,000? Does that few dollars mean that much?
If it were my gun, I'd be far more satisfied selling it for 80% of 'market value' to a home were I knew it would be cared for and appreciated for the next 50 years.

Probably you're right, it's not that rare. But until I saw Art's beautiful 28 gauge, I don't remember seeing another sale of one with the original finish, stock, and barrels, etc.. I'm trying to find out how much that matters. Possibly you wouldn't mind pointing me to one or two sales that would tell me what I need to know. Thanks.
