Thanks Tim- I heard that in fact Mr. Puglisis bought the Czar's Parker from the Julia auction house at aprox $275,000 on behalf of a customer of his- who most likely wanted to stay "in the shadows" with all the gun thefts and other such "bad acts" we have to guard against today- if Mr. Puglisis (as al almost 50 year veteran gun dealer/collector turned down (whether for himself or his client) such a greater offer for this rare artifact-hard to sense, buit the world is full of strange things.
