There are about a thousand situations that would cause a gun like you describe to be worth less than the asking price. To get an honest opinion whether your gun is in that category you would have to post lots of pictures or get a professional opinion from a serious Parker collector. A PGCA letter would help also. The letter could tell you whether the barrels were installed at the factory and how the gun came to have ejectors out of serial number sequence. The pictures could tell us whether the ejectors are Parker ejectors or someone elses. If your friend has a bunch of Parkers with steel and Damascus barrels, he has likely been putting guns together from parts for years, or he is a very perceptive collector. Sorry to be so honest but yup, that's what the situation is.
