Cookeville online gun auction

Ran across this. Some prices are still decent. Bidding goes through the 18th I think. 10% buyers premium

If it's like their last one, I expect to see HiPoints going for Colt Python prices by the end.

 

The overall quality looks better this time.

I saw a Python at $1250 already.

I expect that one to go north of $2000 by the end, even with its significant wear marks.

Most of the ammo is already bid up to the normal prices, higher in a few cases. Same with most of the magazines. 5 PMags for $60? I see specials every week or so for <$10/ea.

Still, there are a few guns on there that might stay low enough to be considered a deal. I'll keep an eye on it for sure.

Good Grief! Anything I might be interested in is already at retail prices for brand new. What are these people thinking?

I watched the last one,  it was comical.   There will be no deals when it is over.   Just save your time and money and  go buy it brand new.   You also have to figure that considering the source, these are not cared for firearms.

I would bet it will go over 3K.

People get wrapped up in the bidding. I would assume right now these bids are just for the bidders to mark their items; the serious bidding will go down in the last few minutes.

Is there a single source? A lot of those look like new in the box.

I bought a couple of firearms through them a year or so ago. They were from a sheriffs auction, and had been apparently stored in a damp evidence locker since confiscation. I would definitely recommend looking over the gun in person, and be aware that all firearms (including antiques) have to go through the background check and registration.

Last time the bulk of the lot looked like what you would expect to be taken off of people who were arrested.  I'm not sure why the police department is selling guns new I the box. Didn't realize this one wasn't a police auction.  I retract my earlier statement.
