I was watching the Rock Island auction Friday and Saturday for the class 3 stuff.
Prices were very high IMO I think from pent up demand and a recovering economy.

I was going to "steal" that 7.62 nato converted Bren gun they had estimated at 13-19K.
Nope...it pulled 40K before premiums. YIKES !

In 20/20 hindsight I should have been a seller of stuff.

 

Waiting for a Trump re-election then I may sell half of my collection.

what Thompson was 9500?? Had to have been a dealer sample

 

maxfaxdude said :Tommy for 9.5 K! -- Good price!

Lot 1075 -- Hammered at 9.5 K + buyer's premium = 11.4 K! Fully transferable -- Good deal!

A good deal, I guess, if you like these West Hurley Commemorative Thompsons. Not my cup of tea.

A good price for a blaster IF it functions well.

That one wasnt even in "collector condition" with the scratches in finish and wood.

There are some that still believe these should bring a big premium over those nasty worn WW2 guns ;)

Its possible to de-fugly most of the gold bits with GI parts and there are some stocks out there as well.

Great price for a Thompson though.... possibly the cheapest I've ever seen in the last 6 yrs or so.

I stay away from auctions. Some get caught up too easily and overbid, forgetting about the BP.

Me, I just don't think any auction house is worth 20% BP for holding up something and running a mouth for a couple minutes.

Like a surgeon charging you ten grand for 12 minutes worth of work.

Just my .02 cents.....

I watch the auctions sometimes just to pick up something undervalued every once in awhile.

I was working that day or else theses BARs were good deals IMO and this Broomhandle went way too cheap

I had my eye on that Broomhandle as well. Awesome little piece. Just not the right time. Oh well, there's always next time!
