Wow, but definitely not my thing.
I can't even add up how many NIB rifles you'd get for $18k. Twelve Little Big Horns, Four Chief Crazy Horses, 4, 4, 4, 4, etc. I give up.
I'd shoot some of the ones in the bottom pics, but the rest would have to go - the ones with the stock medallions.

I'd give my left one for one of the Indian yellow boy carbines, wouldn't want the whole collection though, looks like there would be plenty of money to be made if you had the money to buy it though!
Wouldn't the seller get more for his collection if he sold them individually? I would imagine most people are not looking for multiples of the same gun.
If my math is correct, that is 52 rifles ( not including scabbards, ammo, knives, etc...)
At $18,000, that's $346.00/ gun.
I could not even afford the shipping and transfer fee. (Shipping is probably $12.00/ gun + transfer fee= ~624.00)

You don't get them for 18K, it's still reserve not met. For 56 NIB rifles, I bet the reserve is 30 or 40K. He'll probably have to break up some of it.

Almost unbelievable. For what one would pay for that collection I'd have a bonded private carrier deliver it to my FFL for the transfer. I'm sure I could afford that if I could afford that collection.
I have to wonder how the guy got all of them. Something between stole a tractor/trailer and bought them on super reduced clearance after a few years.
I can just picture the guy from Pawn Stars trying to negotiate them down from what his expert said retail might be.

Most (if not all) of the Winchester manufactured commemoratives are C&R eligible. They’re also all built on post ‘64 actions.
He's basically using gunbroker as cheap advertisement for what's probably a forty thousand dollar collection. But yeah, franklin mint commemorative plates and baseball cards and all the other entropy-averse "collectables"... No real sport in buying something of intentionally limited run and then sitting on it.
Anyone gotta a clue on the production runs of any of these? Are they usually under 5000? Or more like 1000?....
