All Serial #1’s and Zero’s. Is it real, was this someone at Winchesters personal collection? Are these fake? What do you guys think?

All I can say on that guy’s stuff….WOW….and not a good WOW. I imagine that’s a tactic to get people to contact him privately so they can negotiate a “good deal”…strange.

No Reserve, but a $100,000 Opening Bid?
Any sell yet?

If he gets the opening bid on all of them he’s at $5.7 million. I think he wants to win the lottery.

His listed address is Hamilton, MT but given his so-called “selling” prices, I think he’s actually living on Fantasy Island!

the previous link was to all of the sellers listings on GB. Try this one as it goes to just one of his $99,000 listings. You can then clink on the link to see all of his listings.

Looks legit to this untrained eye, seems an exceptional collection of commemoratives is being liquidated. Reasonable tactic for a private sale but I’m sure GB has seen this game before.

They appear to be a legit FFL. Here is the link to their website and the photo of their building they posted. Can’t beat that view!IMG_0034.jpeg

Interestingly he’s not a new seller.  He has 70 pieces of feedback as a seller.  The feedback links to past auctions that were not priced like his current batch are:
