Not posting to be critical. On GunBroker this dealer seems to have SXS's by the millions and displays nicely with descriptions. I can not afford his reserves, and can't remember seeing anyone bid on a gun. I think I recall seeing him posted under a different name years ago. An LC Smith A-2 was posted for years as I recall. Just curious if anyone has made a purchase or dealings. I see some interesting guns but never email as I would never be in the game to purchase. Again, not critical, just can't believe the volume of guns and nothing seems to move. I have a mind set to scroll by any of his easily recognized listings. Getting tougher as his inventory is huge. I stopped getting Gun List years ago when the Wildwood guys had every other listing with high prices. Randy

His photos used to be way too dark, so I suspected he had something to hide. Pics are better now, but I don't even look at his stuff because the prices are always out of line with my view of reality. Emailed him a couple years ago on something, was not impressed with the response.

All Mike Jensen's guns appear to be very heavily worn, pictures are lacking for details IMO......emailed him a few times and was not impressed with his response........his prices appear to be Kansas museum pricing.......

A Tobin #40, with it's opening lever WELL left of center, and a forend that is dog chewed IS NOT worth $1200. Note the guy with the Richards marked Tobin can't get a hit at $200.

Tobin gun, marked Richards,

http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=178348372

Anyone who remarks about a Tobin's "Great reputation for quality" is completely delusional-every one of the guns listed on gunbroker right now has the same lever way left of center, and would rattle like a ditch diggers teeth in January, with the forend removed. LOTS of them, most of them, fall into that catagory.



Let's not even get into the swivel Darne...

Best,

Some months ago I visited with Mike via phone about a gun. Had a very nice conversation and he clearly answered my questions and was very polite. I was left with the impression that he would seriously consider any bids. Seems to me if he's willing to take substantially less for his guns he'd go ahead and price 'em where they'd draw interest.

I've looked at a few of Mickees "auctions" and drawn the same conclusions. His remind me of a guy on Gun Broker or Auction Arms whose name escapes me(Sly?) that has been posting the same tired British doubles with the same outrageous prices for what seems to be years with no apparent sales.

I don't look at Sly's stuff either. I think Mikee has much better guns, and it seems that Sly is still hiding things about his. They are both a complete waste of time, as far as I am concerned.

There is always "Ed Good's" aka -ed1- and his fine used "torched guns" to look at.........?............In fact, he keeps posting his stuff here asking stupid questions that he already has the answer for, trying to 'fish' for suckers..and pick up some free 'press'........
