Guyette and Deeter is successor to Guyette and Schmidt. It is one of two leading companies, Copley the other, in the auction sales of collectible gunning, mostly waterfowl, decoys. There have been occasional gun sales, but nothing as significant as the one in this thread. In the decoy world it has sold at auction at least one decoy in the 7 figure range. I have participated and won in some of their auctions and all appeared above board. I have also purchased a shotgun from Josh and the deal was straight forward. Gil
