YES, spot on! That's what I came up with, or at least under $1500, even for a 90% gun. The asking price of the one offered to me was $3900, nearly 3 times as much.

I will say, with the engraving and the quality of production, it really does look like a 4k gun--UNTIL you do your research.

At $1,500.00, I would buy every original condition Parker SC I could lay my hands on. That's more the price range of an Ithaca Flues 4E. I'm going to say the average price for a Parker SC in original condition is more like 3 grand. And that's a bargain for the quality of the gun.

It all depends on how badly one wants one of these SC's
