Rogers and Spencer Army On GB
« on: November 04, 2019, 12:29:23 PM »
Just FYI. Is this a fair price?

I have no connection to this revolver or the seller.

In my humble opinion, that is a very low price for starters. If I were living on the US side of the Pond, I would go to some extends to get that beauty.

It is a great price, specially for an original. But I get so turned off by these sellers that won't do business with California, or impose extra hoops to jump through, like this guy. He can keep his R&S.

No problem, Dave! If you win the bid, have the seller ship it to me. I will, in turn, ship it to you in a holiday cookie tin covered in cookies (what is your preference?) USPS Priority Mail. I live in a semi-free state and will do what I need to do to help anyone until the Government encroaches upon me.

Would be a great price if you could be sure it wasn't fake.

Be hard to fake that finish.  It'll get bid up.

The high bid is now nearly $1500 with 1 day to go.

Over here in Europe, it would easily go up to $3,000,- plus whatever percentage the auction house wants for it's effort.
