I watched those Parkers sell and am glad my tastes lie elsewhere. The audience applauded the sale of the first 40 incher, but I guess they were out of shock for the second. I was actually surprised the A1S went for the bottom of the estimate and wondered about the wall thickness. I saw some good buys and some…like every other one I’ve attended. I was sorry to have missed Randy and Stan, but at least they left a few guns to bid on.
