C96 Persian Contract

[alvin]

Looks like it's good data then. The only problem is that I cannot sell it at $3000 loss unless I am desperate. Supposedly, there is a $2000 Persian in similar shape waiting a buyer in future auctions. Patience will reward you.

I don't know who bought that $4k instance. At loss of $2k, his instance will also be out of supply for sure. But this is still not the worst case, who bought that $7500 instance from pre98.... even assume there was a little bit discount, I am sure it was not too far away from asking price. This type of difference definitely takes these guns out of market for decades.

Now, we understand why it's rarely seen.

On the other hand, since market realized price is way higher than book, that should attract more old timers and their heirs to sell their instances. Turkish "Exc" $5000, ,,,, it should appear, a little bit higher than book is not unacceptable
