Go by the ebay name of "blgpca16"? I want to bid on something but don't want to step on anybody here.

Not to spoil Mike's great snipe attempt... here is a link to the item. I have some questions about it.

I was thinking about bidding - about $200 ago. This is a real one according to Dave Alberts literature guide. Dave or Michael usually bid here on these items as well.... so if you (Dalbert or Sig) are not bidding - give us a real "value" of what this may be worth???

Well, I was thinking about bidding also........maybe up to about $75! Let the feeding frenzy begin!

[Z3BigDaddy]

I already did my big time bid.... I guess I'll go back to bidding against Panda on the display gun....

There's one on GunBroker for $125.00, but it's a 1936, not a 1928 like on eBay.

Just my two cents ....

Buzzzzzz... What is a reproduction Alex?

I emailed the guy on GB about the fake. He had no clue...yeah right. So I told him was worth about $25-$35. Told him to watch out for the trigger off the line thing.

I’m still very new to this whole Thompson thing …. Okay, I need to know ... How can you tell it's a fake or reproduction. What gives it a way?

I would think that the one on Gun Broker should sell for around $5.00, $6 if they include shipping.

Not Deaf,

You need to contact Dave Albert or Micheal Siglieto(spelled worng..."Dalbert" & "Sig" here on this board) or search on old posts for their book on Thompson Literature. It is certianly worth the price, if they have any left, so you can determine which manuals are real and which are not.

Big Daddy,

As I told you, I am done bidding on that one.... unless I get a reply from him that it has a Richardson reciever! Haven't heard, so it is all yours! I watching it...

[John in IN]

Good lord! That baby went for $532.89!!!!!

[giantpanda4]

I guess Dave answered my question of what the real value is..... But the Canadian beat him! Wow!

Just goes to prove the stupidity of man.

I like to collect old books and catalogues too, but in my opinion, some people have more money than brains...

(I coulda got that M1 Garand I'm saving up for with that money!)

I see that the seocnd highest bidder was a D R Albert. Could this be a coincidence or is der paper meister also a market maker?
