Default Parker DHE Blue Book Value

Someone either got the deal of the decade on this fluid steel DHE, or the Blue Book is way behind the times on fair market value. The seller wasn't responsive to questions, and didn't provide much information in the description, so that may have had an impact too. But even so, it seems that we are still seeing a buyers' market....

I think the lack of response to questions along with the very scanty description of the gun pretty much stopped potential bidders in their tracks. I think the seller did himself a disservice on this one. It could really use a 'freshening' and if done properly could bring double the selling price I think.

Yup, no description, no bids. Great gun for a great price, maybe.

The gun looks to have a large DAH which make it difficult to shoot for some, self included. I really like the engraving on the floor plate screws. I think that's the first time I've seen that type of engraving on D grade screws.
