Consignment! Colt Python Double Diamond

[BigRobb]

People pay more for less useful things. I think it's a fair asking price. If I had 10g to blow on something frivolous I'd buy that over a Rolex.

As a previous owner of that gun and a Python aficionado who has owned about 60 of them up to now, I can attest how amazing that gun is..... tight , crisp and brand new in the box. $9K in the USA translates to $13K cdn after exchange rate, GST and brokerage fees so actually the gun is priced at market value. ....... Oh what's that?? You're not a collector? So why are you part of the conversation.
To those who think it is exorbitantly price.... Go find another in Canada.

Just to be clear the $9000 US price that I referred to was for the boxed 2 gun set which included the 150th anniversary Python and the matching officer's model 1911.

Having said that if this gun sells at or near 11K then it isn't/wasn't over priced. As always, fair market value is whatever someone is prepared to pay today.

As an aside, I can't find any reference to these pythons ever being offered by Colt on their own. Were they or would this be a gun from a set that got split up sometime in the past.

It's funny how collectable and luxury items can really bring out the jealousy and hate in some people...

I thought it might be fun to put this set back together.

Once the loonie drops to .10$ on the petro dollar this summer it will be a steal.
