Title: Rock Island Auction
Post by: jcorl on May 08, 2017, 11:57:38 AM
Did anyone watch the RocK Island Auction this past Saturday and see the HSc commercial sell for $3,000?   I better add to my commercial category in my collection, it would seem.

Good Grief!  Was it gold plated?

That is what I thought!!   It was a low serial number, but  not a LGS.  It was beautiful.   The condition was 99%, but that price was way wrong in my book.  Then there was a 15% buyers fee on that plus shipping charges.  It was just a fine example of a commercial.  That was all.  Helmets were going for $10,000.  Then there was the $200,000 German paratrooper sniper rifle.  Prices were crazy high.
