No mystery here.

Doug - If you read the paragraph above, or go to the actual auction, you'll note it says "Current Bid $10,001.00 Reserve Met!"...

Well, you see....further information came to light!! I missed that a reserve had been met in your original post.
Something then does seem odd.

You know, I just paid ~$500 for two pair of eyeglasses this last Summer...A lot of money, but they do seem to work...

Check out both Start & End dates, too...He re-listed the Reserve Met/Sold handgun *before* the end of the first auction...

Lemme add this seller to my Scheiße List...

It just may have been that the seller signed up for the gun to be automatically re-listed when he/she originally listed it and then GunBroker did not check to see if it had been sold before they automatically re-listed it.

Mike, Since it was established on the other forum that you were the seller, or someone living at your address, it would save time if you stop horsing around. If you want forum help, you should level with us. Norm

SO, if Mike had such a good year in the market, why is he selling instead of buying????
