I have never had a problem with them and have bought a fair amount of stuff through them.

Notably in this auction of the stuff I book marked SW M 629 P&R 8 3/8 B went for 1700 wt buyer prem..about 2K. And a Colt 1911 pre 70 NM GC nib apx 4K...

JYL should be eating his hat..as to what the prices realized for that same spoon went for at REATA a coupla weeks ago.. I brought them to his attention.

Overall prices at Watson's auction were sizzling...
Nibbling my hat . . . but do I want to buy a unfired NIB pre 70 NM and then have it modified, railed, ride in a pistol box, shoot the crap out of it, and generally degrade its value by 50% or more? Not decided.
