Gun auction Douglas Auction So. Deerfield

[jonw]

Did anybody go to the action yesterday?
I was wondering how it went?
Crazy prices? Big crowd?

I bid online. I assume I didn't win(bid on a ruger mkII). But I didn't hear anything back today or last night so I guess I lost

Most things sold at or just below retail, some even above. It was interesting to attend and watch.

They sold for near retail after the buyers premium is added or just the winning bid was that? It sounds like it was ebayish where people will pay more at times than they could buy it at a stores. Fools.

Both, depending on the item. I saw some things where bought for more then I've seen then go for on a store shelf.
I was expecting things to sell around dealer cost - few did.
