I completely agree with everything you said! I will not purchase from, or sell to, a flipper but everyone need to eat
This is a great thread with several different but valid points of view.

I think the new owner (The Flipper) has great expectations as to the true value of his investment.

As I have mentioned before according to TPS only about 6 guns were produced with straight grip and 32 inch barrels. I know the whereabouts of three and two of them are for sale.

it is an attempt to determine its high value... IMHO

More likely an attempt to set the value with a couple of shill bidders.

I cannot imagine bidding $48,000 for a gun on Gunbroker.

Yea....it seems a visit in person might be more fitting. Then, I've bought cars for $40K on Ebay....

But the odds of this gun not being shill bid are right at zero...

This gun is a new one day auction on GB every day. It is obnoxious. I have to delete my search every day.
What a clown.

It is very obnoxious. It's a free country, though, I guess
