Now that the Kindergarten spat is over I will move my comment about the beginners O/U down beyond it.

Since you are not a youth, likely to out grow a gun, or likely to lose interest in shooting, pick as nice a gun as your budget will allow. Don’t go cheap or buy anything odd because resale later might be difficult and nobody needs more guns in their racks that aren’t shot because we regret buying them in the first place. Perhaps you should list your qualities you want in your gun. Gauge, barrel length, choke tubes or fixed chokes, adjustable stock or not, target weight or lighter field weight. Most modern guns will handle thousands of rounds before any maintenance should be required. I have two O/U which have both shot 250,000 targets, one with zero parts replaced and one with one minor part replaced. So durability is something I value in a gun.
I just decided my next two gun purchases will be for such narrow defined needs. Once I listed what exactly I wanted as features almost all guns but a few were eliminated. Then the true hunt begins which I find most satisfying in itself. Sometimes you have to look at buying guns which are undervalued where they are being sold but not so much here. I bought a Remington Sporting Clay 1100 from Holts, paid to import it, for less than half what I could buy one for state side. Point is, if you decide what you want don’t limit yourself to just a few auctions sites. In fact take a good look at auction sites like Holts because they often have models which we don’t often see here.

$4K budget doesn’t really imply beginner, or, even first gun. Not to me, anyway.
You will find some very nice guys in that price range.
Good luck.
Best,
Ted
