This reminds me why I don’t give appraisals. One reason among many . . .

Looks like the Parker paper market is going into the toilet. I could have sworn this catalog would go over two grand. Maybe the minor condition issues kept it "reasonable". I'm thinking about weighing mine so I can price it by the pound.

I`d say it was a fair deal for both seller and buyer...

I agree. Good deal on both ends.

A lot of gun companies catalogs and brochures have went down. I was lucky and sold a bunch of Winchester paper to one man about 3 years ago and got a great price but it seems that the paper has went down ever since and I doubt that I could get half as much today. I still have 2 Winchester model 21 catalogs and a Remington hand thrower with original brochure that I hope to at least break even on.
