Borchardt Sale

Geez!!! $36K !!!! Well, here is a situation where the bidders do some price research and then set a price in mind. Then do the deed by bidding your price or pass. If your price is too low, then God has just said "NO!" and you should move on to something else. If the other bidder is just trying to fool people into not bidding or if you want to take a shot anyway and you win, then pat yourself of the back.

I've lost out on a Luger on Saturday during auctions. It happens. When the price went too far, in my opinion, I just opened a can of pop and unfolded a Klondike ice cream bar and found another Luger that I am now watching. I'm not telling about that one though. (HEE! HEE!)

But no matter how you look at it, the venerable Ron Wood and (hopefully me) have passed on information about the Borchardt pistol. So maybe the next time that a Borchardt comes along, you have some pointers to think about and (who knows?) you might get lucky. This should not stop you from having some fun watching this auction to see what happens. I have a book mark on it and book marks are cheap.
