Wowza, I'm somewhat knowledgeable about department store guns and their ilk (having just purchased my sixth JC Higgins the other day).....but I must have missed the memo on this one. Anyone else know something I don't?.....

I can smell the crack being smoked all the way from here.

[El Mariachi]

They have crack in Florida?......

One in 98% condition with scope caps and everything went for $92 in October 2008, just three years ago.

So......

Old JC Higgins are great, but they're not $3,000.00 great.....

[cleardiddion]

It says shipping and such included in the price. Maybe an overnighted gold plated box?

[CAR-AR]

Funds in confederate bills....maybe?

[janobles14]

i think a decimal got lost on the way to the party.

[El Mariachi]

I'd completely understand the price.........if it was in Zimbabwe dollars....

[MachIVshooter]

Maybe the result of a marital "discussion"?

Dude's wife: "You need to sell that ugly old thing"

Dude: "OK, honey, I'll put it up for auction first thing in the morning and leave it up until it sells......"

I think that is due a 'sticky'!

Only on the beaches.

[Huckelberry75]

I will have to remember that one about leavin it up until it sells.

I was gonna post something nearly identical.

Check out some of his other auctions. The man apparantly plans on retiring on a private island or something.

[Master Blaster]

I'm betting that the wife told him to sell them!!!!!

[clamman]

I have one that looks exactly like that one, except it's a model 29. And it's in MUCH better shape. I'll take $1000.00 for it lmao

[SaxonPig]

I bought one of those in 1986. I paid $12.50 for it at an auction and sold it for $35 a few months later.

It's worth whatever someone will pay for it; not necessarily what the seller asks for it.

[benzy2]

I suggest you don't take it to heart. I had an AR upper for sale on GB. I had a few local bites for it. Since I didn't want to pay relisting fees if the local deals fell through, I added two digits to the price. Had it priced at $80k that way. The point was to not sell but not lose out on the money spent for the ad. I had a lot of hate mail for it. People were upset at the price and had no problems typing long derogatory emails over a simple f/s ad. It ended up selling locally and being pulled.

The point is that some people aren't always looking to sell something they have listed unless an absolute sucker is willing to pay an unrealistic price.

[6x6pinz]

I have one like it in the original box and an original cleaning kit also. I would easily take half that for it. Might even be talked into a box of ammo to go with the deal.

[Lovesbeer99]

If I win the Powerball tomorrow night I'll buy this just for fun. I never shot a $3000 .22 caliber rifle before so with the millions I already have I'll feel even richer.

C'mon Kidz, you guys aren't being very good consumers------this man needs some bids, NOW. And hurry up, y'all got just 6 hours left.....:D
