I was bidding on four guns today. Backed up my bids with online bids when they got surpassed. Ended up going zero for four. One I would have won I expect but my internet connection chose that minute to get a hiccup and last bid did not go through. That was for an interesting light weight 12 which did not go for that much. Sales were strong for the most part with guns going for high estimate and above almost every time for guns I watched sell. I have gotten to the point that I bid and once it goes past my personal high limit for bidding I wish the winner good luck and move on.
I seem to have more luck in the sealed bid auction which is coming up. I have bids entered for about two dozen items and guns. If I win more than a few I will be surprised. But looking is most of the fun. Guess I was the kid who wore out the pages of the Sears Christmas book when it came. Holt's is my new Christmas book online.
