From a posting in the 1911 section.
Look at the bidders names.

This Colt has been Re-listed due to the NON Paying winner.
Here's the bidder list of the first go round, that I've compared to some of this sellers other current listings, like a Never Issued IBM carbine. So many of the same names he looks to have a cult following or his own shill bidder roster.
Be sure to look for Ozzy5d C Rating (2) Transactions... among others

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Manufacturer of various vintage rifle scopes for the 1903 such as our M73G4 (reproduction of the Weaver 330C) and Malcolm 8X Gen II (Unertl reproduction). Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles.

high volume dealers who start at a penny seem to have a following of nimwit bidders--one has to know what you are bidding on--my grandpa told me the only thing you can buy at auction is at a price that was more than anyone else would bid, kind of a hollow ring there when you think about it

seller uses the same shill bidders on several auctions.....so who is dumber? Seller or buyers??? Or both?

Well, that "unfired & unissued" IBM is now gone! - Bob

Will be the buyers 5th purchase via GB from this seller.
Feed back will be interesting. Maybe all will be Happy.
Maybe they went to boy scout camp together..

I still wonder if the Sling was 'Un-issued' and if so: How could that be ?

Careful with this one, I paid over $7 K for it...

Safe New Year To All,

The 2nd place bidder on the IBM managed to score on the Colt. Take a look at how many he's bought from this seller in the past couple months.

I guess I'll hold on to my unissued IBM for a while. Although I'd let it go for such a stupid amount! lol

**shadycon** · 12-31-2018 08:36 AM

Un-issued/un-fired=not given to military after assembly/not fired since assembly. Who assembled it????????????????????

What I don't understand is how stampings that were applied AFTER the carbine was built ended up with parkerizing INSIDE the stampings? Same is true on the colt 1911. Makes you go Hmmmm???!
