George,

I've got a few good ones, some of the boys on the forum have seen them. I've sold a few good ones too, but it's usually been to friends so they didn't appear on a public venue. Best of luck to you.....

Some of the estimates seemed high to me, but I am out of touch with reality, according to my wife. Others seemed quite reasonable. In fact, #254 and #256 seemed low.
Artfact is a hard one to get final results from unless you're a subscriber. Amoskeag has a good reputation and if this auction finishes up like many recent ones, I'd be surprised if they were too far off the mark between estimates and final hammer prices.

So, how do you get the prices they sold for? I don't see them on the Auction site.

Destry: I'm sure you have some nice Parkers and nice other doubles as well. I'm also sure that you have some friends that you share them with. It has been my policy for quite some time now to invest what little discretionary income that I have in antique guns, primarily side by sides, and land. Since I don't normally get to see the gun in person before I buy it I tend to buy more that I want to keep and put the ones back that I wish to keep and sell the rest. This has worked out well for me since I am way ahead of what I have spent and have a few nice guns put away that have cost me nothing. This, to me, is much better that the 1 or 2 per-cent I would earn on my money at the bank plus I have some nice things to look at at least for a while before they are sold. The biggest plus, however, are the number of friends that I have made by pursuing my hobby, several of whom subscribe to this forum.

I wish you well in your endevours and I would never hold to question your intentions.

Best Regards, George

WOW 31K plus the vig for a gun that sold for less than $100 when new. "If my Daddy had only known!" And they say that we're in a recession!

Best Regards, George
