Prices will be posted on Monday.
As far as this being a trend, well this is the third auction in a row that English gun prices were really down.
When you can buy a trio of Boss RA self openers for 55K, well you fill the blank
My friend had a very nice Purdey pigeon gun that sold at bottom of the reserve. He lost money on a beautiful gun.
I still say, the Vintage craze is gone. When it first started in the early 90's any English gun out there could be sold.
Now 28 years later those guys are falling out of it.
Plus the two large collections that was dumped on the market in the last couple of years did not help either.
I bought mine because I liked them and always felt they would increase in value. Now, well I suppose my wife's next husband will have to deal with this problem.
