Is this crazy or what? See link.

I know prices are up, and this is a very nice rifle, but ..........

I hope the seller actually receives the amount of the final bid!

I remember seeing a gun safe full of Savage pre-mil "F" models in upstate NY, many with tang tags, a pair with duplicate serial numbers, some in special wood, all very high condition...

That collection would be worth a very pretty penny now!

Jed's

The winner of that auction also won the 32-40 for 2700 and the 308 for 4500 from the same seller. Lets see what the sellers 243 and 250 F’s bring!!

It's only money.

Widow's collection... maybe a couple of well to do family members driving prices up to help the widow? Hope she's getting the majority of the money and didn't sell it cheap.

If a 99F in 300 is worth almost $8000 why did we have a pissing match about the 32-40? LOL

"We" didn't....

I'm literally laughing right now.

[blah blah blah]

Dang.. did I say that out loud. Sorry.

Back to 99F's.

I thought this was about overpriced guns. LOL

Covid longhaul complication know as SAVID; causes bazaar emotional bidding

Looks like I shouldn’t be hunting with my F .300.

More expensive than a Winchester

Well,that should certainly guarantee continued safe queen/white glove status.

Two theories on why guns have gone up so much in value-

1) Good ones are getting hard to find as Savages have come into their own

2) Two years of decreased recreational and travel opportunities due to the manufactured crisis has created a glut of disposable income for collectors

As much as some people may want ridiculous sky-high prices to be standard, one or two sales don't set a new standard price point.

With Tommy Guns running up the market for years, I believe the higher prices are here to stay. Not $7600 prices, but $2000 Savages are very common now, where they weren't a short time ago. The seller of the 300 above has a few others listed as well, and he seems to have hit a hot button with buyers. Hang tags? Long winter? Pent up demand?

I find it interesting that there were four bidders at the $3890 point on that .300...and no box.

Can anyone tell if that is a 700,000 or 900,000 serial range?

776,190.

looks like a 7 to me.

I agree they've gone up. But $2000 or $2500 is a long ways from $7500.

Agreed. $7650 isn't normal, but it did sell with multiple bidders wanting to pay thousands more than normal.

this one was on the up & up, no bs

the last 14 bids were by 2 bidders, "money to spend, you are not going to out bid me"

One of those more money than sense situations.

notice the prices on used F-250's lately...





used - F-250

lmao

That was my first thought. But after thinking about it, maybe it's not the case. Assuming the tag is real and if the gun's original owner never fired it, or if it's in good condition enough condition that it's close enough, where would you find another for sale? Brand new, on the rack condition with original paper work ( I thought there was paperwork mentioned ). That doesn't mean enough to me to make it worth that much but to some it might.

just keeping pace with Joe Biden's inflation ..

plab

same seller has a 250 @ $3400. with a day to go
