I wonder what the 226 will go for.

In past auctions all the guns go high since the public can buy them and the public gets stupid at times.  I've seen the prices be 80% to 120% of new retail prices.  That's right people get auction fever and pay more than new value for a used gun.  I'm sure some deals are to be found but I would say it is rare.  Now the other stuff at those auctions, great deals can be had at times.

From my experiences most of those people are there just for the guns.  The regular auction items will have some people milling around, meanwhile the majority of the people are in the building where the guns are laid out.

Prices were completely insane. Several guns went for over 100% of MSRP, not to mention actual retail price.

I was there, too and can confirm that the prices were crazy on everything, not just the guns. I had hopes of buying several things, but would not have given half of what most went for. Some of the prices on the vehicles made me want to run my car through the auction. Those vehicles had been well used, and most of them abused.

You guys described just about every auction I've ever been to.  Full of old, fat, rednecks and farmers with apparently WAY too much money that have never heard of the internet.  Almost anything you would want goes for retail + 10%.
