Guessing it didn't really sell, and will be relisted?

Modedit: thread of no value after link expires without a few screenshots. Looks like a lot of shill bidding to me.

the sling is especially weird, never seen one like that.

At least they call it a “faithful reproduction that has been masterfully refurbished “. Crazy what people will spend on absolute garbage.

I added the screenshots. My opinion: carnival barking and shill bidding, Gunbonker festivus.

Several years ago I was at a gunshop that I seldom visit. They had a Mitchell's "Collector Grade" Yugoslav M-48 for sale for only $1200! I just laughed to myself and left. I wonder if it's still there?

Mitchell's really prettied that rifle up, which is all the buyer cared about. Everybody's happy.

will be relisted?

I'll offer $300. That could be made into a nice "tribute sniper".

Two questions brought on by this. First, notice celtic man also bid $2,200. Ive seen this numerous times, but never been able to figure HOW to bid up someone at the exact same bid. Second, along the same line, how do you trick gunbroker into allowing you to bid below the minimum bid amount? I had put a bid on a rifle, for say $2100. I can't remember the exact amount, but it was over $2k. The person who won the rifle, won it for $2100.12. They entered their bid after mine.
