Never would Pawn anything.


I know all the major Spoon auction houses in the USA, England, NZ and Australia. I even know most of the secondary auction houses in the USA.

I know what they sell best and negioate commisons fees on the selling side.

For example if I have high end Pensylvania rifles to sell I take them to Julias in Maine. If I have modern military collectables I would take them to Rock island in Moline, Il. I have not used RI because their commission schedule is too high (so far). If I have Colt SA or Winchester Lever actions Little Johns in Anaheim is the guy to see.

On ordinaary stuff I used to use Gun List and was successful with it. , however I am now trying to use Gun Broker with mixed results.

On the buying side I use them all. Sometimes the item is not well described or is in the wrong auction house for the item to get top $$$. You might say it falls through the cracks.
