Any comments on the originality of RIA auction officers model?

Dick ,

you may have seen or have corresponded with the owner of the OM I referenced,

I also had a conversation with someone else you may know regarding selling some of his collection,

I'll shoot you an email when I get a chance

OK, will look forward to it.

Took part in the recent Rock Island auction and was able to buy an early Hoffer Thompson 1903 for what I hope was a very reasonable price. Also watched some of the auction online and was impressed that priced seemed a bit subdued. Not sure if it?s the economy (doubt), or the fear of government confiscation (maybe), or just a good time to buy.
