Where's it for sale? If it's on Gunbroker, then there's a premium because it's marketed to a much larger audience. If it's in a local shop, shave a big chunk off that number.
And all that's presuming the sale actually completed.

The Model 59 in question is in a local shop in the Boston area... not on Gunbroker. That particular shop has 244 used guns for sale as we speak. None of the used guns there are ever displayed in their factory boxes and I didn't ask. There are no visible signs of wear or use. It looks unfired, but who knows? The original owner is no longer with us to tell.
Anyway, enough of this. I think we've both made our points in regard to the Model 59 and how we see it today. No point in further repeating.
