Sako-addicted
Just a FYI on what two Sakos & one Ithaca(Tikka) sold for at a local estate auction where I live last Saturday. An AIII Sporter in 7mm Rem Mag-$900, An AIII Deluxe in 270 Win- $1025, & an Ithaca LSA 65 in 25-06- $750. All three rifles were LNIB with box/papers & absolutely perfect. I couldn't find a single ding or blemish anywhere. These auction selling prices are in line with what 8 Sakos sold for last spring at the same auction house. Sporters around $800, Deluxes around $1100, in very nice condition. I see asking prices all the time that are $400-$500 more & see posts here that seem to espouse the higher values, but my real world experience in my area does not reflect that. Were these two auctions an anomaly or do any of you see the same? BTW, I didn't buy any of them, so feel free to admonish me for my stupidity. I've worn my boots out kicking myself.
