Firearms Collectors - Free 3 Volume Catalog, 6000 Color Photos

I suppose that some folks would be happier if they charged $10.00 for a set of catalogs that usually go for $60.00, and sweetened the deal with free shipping. 
Frankly, this is (or maybe was by now) a super deal any way you cut it. What you get is a set of top quality reference books that are informative under any circumstances; and might get you a major windfall if you happened to spot a sleeper at some pawnshop, retailer's shop or gun show. When it comes to making bucks you can't know too much, but you can lose out by knowing too little. Over the years more then one member has reported something they bought and discovered it was worth much more then they (and the seller) thought it was.
We are very fortunate that they picked The High Road to make this offer.

April Free Catalog Offer
Seems to be some confusion here and there on this offer to a few folks. We are not trying to hide the fact that we are charging for shipping.
The original post and the link that has more information has stayed the same. There is a $10 fee to everyone that covers the shipping charge. Actually in many cases that does not cover the ship charge. If you have not seen a set of these before they are 3 volumes, spiral bound very high quality. Its like shipping 3 phone books for a large city. Massive amounts of work go into the production of these catalogs. Just the photography alone, over 6,000 photos.
For those that do not want to get a set but are interested in the highlight pieces in this auction you can view our flyer online with this link.
For those of you who did take advantage of this offer there is more coming your way on top of the catalogs. After the auction we will send you free of charge a copy of the prices realized at auction. That way you can compare the price estimates to the price realized at auction. PLUS...we send everyone in our database a free copy of our 16 page full color flyer every auction.
By the way....if you see a gun or two in the catalog and feel like placing a bid. Its very easy to do. Remember the price estimates are just that, and estimated value placed on each item. Bid what its worth to you! Some will go below the low est. some will go above the high est. Every auction there is a few bargains to be had!
One last thing....I just checked and we have a few left. The offer will be over this weekend as we are getting low now. You will know when the offer is over the code will no longer work.
We just posted our latest blog story Viva La France, last weeks was Call of Duty, and Size Matters before that. If you want to read any stories we write about out items in the April Sale.
You guys have a great forum here, I personally read many of the post. Have a great weekend. Do not hesitate to call us if you need assistance.

I just tried to order by phone & was told they are out.
That was a nice offer. Just saw it too late.

Completely agree with Old Fuff as we were extremely lucky that RIA offered us such a great deal. Ordered a set this morning and will be waiting for the auction.
Thank you Dano223 and RIA.

I got home today and my catalogs were waiting for me. WOW. Just amazing references.
Got my set on Thursday. Looks great, very impressed. Well worth the $10
Just have a commit on Terms and Conditions section. Under paragraph 16 Class 3. It says individuals are not allowed to own machine guns in Michigan. This is incorrect and was changed a few years ago.

Mine arrived today. So many exquisite firearms in full color and with lots of useful info.
Catalogs are worth way more than the ten dollars I got them for and for just the reference and eye candy value alone.
Thank you very much Dano223.

My set arrived this morning. As expected the material contained within these 3 books is exceptional, and covers everything from medieval armor to current firearms. There is literally something for everyone, regardless of what their interests might be.
Unfortunately not everyone was fortunate enough to be able to take advantage of this outstanding offer. However they still have the option of going to the auction house website and viewing what is there. I highly recommend that everyone who is interested do so.

My catalogs arrived this afternoon, great catalogs too, unfortunately they will probably cost much more than the $10 as I will bid on a few of lots. Thanks RIA.

Received mine yesterday. Wow, the most incredible gun porn I have ever seen. Thanks to THR and RIA for setting us up. I can't afford anything at the auction right now but what a great research tool. Just fun to look through and honestly, still a good value for $60.00.

I received mine. They're even nicer than I imagined. Thanks.
I had to lock them up to keep people from borrowing them.

No, but be aware that it might be delayed because they went to the NRA Convention and set up an exhibit. After the auction they first have to make arrangements to get the various lots into the hands of the winners. Lots of packing and shipping to do.
