You have a little to learn about search functions on internet sites as well as about Parker shotguns. GI has a category for original Parkers that is separate from Repros. You are definitely in need of some stewardship if you mistake a $2000 Parker for a $6500 Parker. You should go to the PGCA website forum and to some, maybe many, side by side events where vendors are set up with shotguns for sale.
