Take a look at the prebid amounts for the 2 day Guyette& Deeter auction that starts tomorrow. The first part of the first day is for Parker shotguns mostly. The prebids being made online are eyewatering in many cases. This is well before the big money attending the auction in person comes into play. Some of the prices already bid for VH models are significant compared to a couple of years ago.

If realty has set in, the realty is that the market believes these guns are undervalued.

Asking prices have no bearing on reality. Hard cash spent sets the market and expected quality as to condition and reality. It is true that junk brings junk prices, but quality is selling high.
