The prices for field worn guns in excellent mechanical order are..... $1200 for 16ga extractor.... Did you not read my post, two above yours? A 16 gauge extractor gun that needs a stock replacement and barrels blued just fetched $1500 from people who had shopped the market for 6 months. You make pronouncements like you know what you are talking about and yet you are ignorant of the most basic facts.

Bought a nice using 16 ga at the last AGCA show. 1300.00 was a fair price to me and seller.

In 1990, I bought an AE grade Fox 16 with 28" Krupp barrels and factory straight hand stock. The but stock had been replaced. I paid $2200 at that time. Today the same gun would go for about $5000+.
The prices on these guns just keep rising. Bought a A grade 20 gauge with 30" Chromox barrels about 2 years ago for $2500 - a steal at that price. At the same time I bought a 20 gauge Sterly for small money. I sold the graded 20 for $5500. Gave the Sterly to a friend and beginning bird hunter.
If you can find a un-messed with Sterly 16 for $1500, I would buy it right away.

I purchased an 28" AE 16 gauge this past winter for $1,800 but it needed a restock. I think it was a darn good deal even counting the restock. I still stand by my original assessment that you can find a decent 16 gauge Sterly for $1,200. It won't be an ejector gun and it won't have a pile of case color, but they are out there. Now, 20 gauge is a totally different bird. A 26" Sterly 20 in decent shape just sold for over $1,700 last week on GB.

What, if anything, makes a Sterlingworth worth gold?

Simply, it's a field grade double whose many virtues are easily appreciated. Thus, a strong demand.
