For an any of you auction heads out there, there is going to be a decent firearms auction in Stratton this Saturday.
Flockauctionsllc.com for info. The firearm auction lots start at 1pm, according to the website. Stratton is about 50 miles east of Limon on I-70, if you were wondering.
There are over 70 firearms being auctioned, lots of Ruger and quite a few Winchester 30-30's among others.

MODS, if this is an inappropriate post, I apologize, and feel free to move or remove.

I have no affiliation with the estate or the auction company, just passing it along.

Maybe it should be in Buyer Intel in TP?

No problem. Still deciding whether it's safe for my checkbook to go. Could be dangerous.

Hope they don't allow online bidders. The auctions down here are so crooked. I have witnessed on multiple occasions live bidders "win" and then 30 seconds later/few minutes they announce "sorry we had an online bid that we didn't catch" or some other nonsense and they tell the live bidder that they didn't actually win and they are obligated to honor the online bid. That or online bidders bid up items so high before the live auction even starts it isn't worth the trouble.

I was bidding against the auction house employees a few years back. I ended up with the item (not cheap) at around GB prices. So I don't feel horrible, but I still wonder what the going price would have been without those bids.
