I don’t even remember what this 586 is priced at but it’s around 3k with a mildly negotionable status. The range owners know the seller is asking way too much and about five have sold already. Did I mention they have been on consignment a year?

While there are some real jewels is this collection, this 586 would not be my first pick. There are a couple of 3.5” 27s and several other 2.5-3” N frames.
There are well-heeled collectors who might pay $3K for a pristine example with box, but I agree this one is at least 20% overpriced. Sounds like there is some form of estate battle surrounding their sale too.
