The biggest issue of this rig is probably the price. Albert mentioned seller wanted $25K. Obviously, no one took it, so it's consigned to RIAC, probably with reserve of $25K.
The relative value can be measured by #98 flatside sold by Holt's Auction a few years ago. #98 is super well balanced, with considerable amount of original finish, the only drawback was (1) the front sight was modified; (2) the magazine spring was replaced by a Schnellfeuer spring. It sold 22,000 British Pounds. One British Pound was about $1.6 USD ... so USD $35,200. If RIAC #92 goes $28,750 ($25K with 15% BP), the price is $6,450 lower than #98. If #92 indeed goes RIAC's low estimate ($27,500 + 15% = $31,625), it would appear relatively expensive than #98 (although the absolute value is still $3,575 lower than #98's final price, but the extra finish on #98 counts more than 10% in price difference IMO). #98 sold by British a few years ago attached for reference. |
