    SVT was $850. SC 1903a3 was $425. Don't know about the M22 because the site sucks.

    Some 03's went for $325 if they had sanded stock up to $600 for a 98% 03A3 The M2 went for $1,200.

    I did get an email, which I didn't see until right before my post, from invaluable.com, where I previously registered to see that last Conestoga Auction. The email listed maybe 10 auctions across the country for this weekend.

    I put a bid on a 1903 made in 1918 in a nice stock but stopped chasing it at $300. It went for $450. If I wasn't intent on buying a Swede on which I'm bidding, I probably would have pursued it. When you factor in a 21% buyer's premium and Conestoga's ridiculous $65 shipping charge (from PA to MD), you can easily get carried away and way deeper than you wanted to be.

    There were some deals in the October auction - not so much yesterday. I might head up there next time.

    Whew! That is a bit of an add-on.
    So for example, the $850 SVT would be $1093.50 by the time the fees were added? (assuming they don't place a State tax on the sale).
    Kinda takes a good bit of the bargain right out of the picture. But $850 for a Finn Capture SVT is a very good price if the condition is decent.
