I think your mistaking the boxlock for the sidelock.

I had a 20ga BSS sidelock, they were copies of a H&H sidelock, nice gun. Last 20ga BSS sidelock I saw was around $5000 asking price.

No. I am just providing the link, as an example. I am pretty sure that they are basing those values on the box lock. Moreover, I still question the source and validity of their data. But it is a place to start.

I think it’s safe to say you will be north of $5000.00 depending on condition. That is the side lock version and there are not that many of them around in 20 ga

I know this is going to be heresy on a Parker site, but my 20 gauge BSS is one of the quickest pointing guns I’ve ever shot. It does a number on the put out quail so common in my area nowadays.
