I threw a $1200 bid down on this 5% finish Colt SAA that's loose with a rough bore. I thought that was a darn good bid for what amounts to a parts gun.
Nope. Hammered down at $1850.
I also put a bid down on this 1924 Colt Officers Model 38 for $550, never expecting to win what was at the time Colts premium DA revolver.
Yup. I won the Officers Model.
Same seller, auctions ending at roughly the same time on the same day.
I really don't get how a rough-as-a-cob, standard SAA can collect almost 4x the money that the OM did, especially considering the condition.
Works for me, but that kind of blows my mind.
