Always a good one, always come home with something. Photos on web site, last time I was there they did accepted C & R and I believe they facilitated Maryland transfers.

Wonderful auction if you're selling. Top money is paid there. No deals to be found for the buyer. The upside is that IF you are looking for some odd caliber, or a collector series, and you want to part with a chunk of cash, you might see it there.
I agree with BlueFins, I went to two of them and most of the guns were selling near or above brand spanking new. Something about i gotta beat this guy out no matter what the expense. I also went to an estate auction that had 10 guns for sale and a few home furnishings in WV. OMG I pulled up towards the house and there must have been 80 cars up n down the street. I turned around and went home never to look on the web for private auctions again.
-You might not want to lose hope in situations like the estate auction. In my experience the majority of your competition will be antique dealers looking for inventory on the cheap. So often there are only a handful of serious firearm bidders. Can't tell you how many times I've been bidding on a firearm and my only real competition was a local gunshop owner who usually cannot afford to stock his inventory paying over 70% of market value. Gives you a leg up.
-As to Redding, I've been a longtime attendee and it has shifted back to a seller's venue. There are 2-3 deep pocket dealers from the tri-state area who specialize in C&R and sell mainly on Gunbroker who have been driving this trend. They've been getting above market prices in the last couple of years (thanks Obama) and aren't shy, or too poor, about bidding up to market value because they're getting more than that when selling. Sucks but that's what happens when a venue gets a good rep and starts consigning interesting items. I will say that I love that Redding doesn't charge a buyer's premium and is so easy to work with if you have a 03.
