Who's going to Rosehill's firearms auction in Olds?
 
I was looking at the Rosehill Auction Mart Gun Auction site and they sure have a pile of firearms to sell!

Quite a few never fired....looks like something for everyone there. Preview I believe is this Friday and the auction on Saturday.

Just wondered if any members on here were going?

where you get to pay 15% more than full retail on a used firearm of questionable background plus a buyers premium and GST. Seen too many people pay too much that I no longer waste my time looking for deals at auctions.

So I guess you won't be there then.

You'll notice he didn't say that. Or even that he won't be buying, just isn't looking for a deal. :)

Usually everything goes for more than they are worth.

You'll find better deals at auctions when you don't advertise them and invite 50,000 AO members to come out and bid against yourself.

I was at their auction once, and between the crazy prices at their previous auction, and the crappy roads that day, the crowd was fairly small, and there were some deals to be had.
I hope one day the stars align like that again.
