If the Trojan I saw yesterday at a local shop was any indication maybe the price isn't so far off--plain-jane 12ga trojan, perfect screws and good wood but lever to the left and slightly off-face, zero color and obviously polished action, 70% blueing with a small dent in barrel, no wood finish and checkering worn completely smooth. Asking price $2800, wonder how long that'll be there? Even Galazan doesn't have that kind of nerve.

You are right. I was at the auction yesterday with the intention of taking that gun home but I dropped out at 16.5. Special gun for a niche collector its not an Explora but had "invisible" rifling. There were a few other items mismarked as to price and I don't think it was intentional.
I would love to hear more about your Westley.
