Last August I was passing through Wheeling, WVa and stopped at the store there. They had a DH Parker #2 frame with damascus barrels for $2,100. Gun was very dirty, but the wood was sound, bores were perfect, and barrels on face. Out the door for $1,800 and it cleaned up great. As I was waiting for the processing to go through the salesman said they get 75-100 guns in during the week and about that many on the weekend. That's a lot of guns. When people are practically standing in line to dispose of a gun, you can buy cheap and sell high. The margin is so great they don't have to sell many to make money. Had they applied a little elbow grease to the one I bought they could have sold it for more.
