Oh God! Where do I start? How about a 1906 navy that some guy walked into the Ohio Gun Collectors meeting with. I happened to be standing at the door when he came in. It had an excellent navy holster with a Nazi eagle sewed on it. The guy was selling it for a widow he knew and he wanted $1000 for the whole thing. I took a quick look at it and thought it was restored. It wasn't restored, it was mint. I took four steps and realized my serious mistake. Opps! Too late. Dave Molchen got it and I believe he is still drooling to this day.
