Thanks to all. This is very helpful information. I'll be approaching this very carefully.
Generally speaking, I've decided to continue looking at these guns "for their value to me;" meaning a gun that I'd be happy looking at every time I pull it out of the safe, dimensions and attributes that I'd like to hunt with occasionally in the right conditions, and last but not least, I want to lose little money if I ever choose to sell it.
This strategy opens up a world of upgrades and anomalies that if priced right,become worthy of consideration.
I don't collect any more...but I respect those of you that do, and the wisdom of your perspective.
