Landsborough Auction - Paris, ON

[msbont]

Pretty decent place in my opinion, used to be the Gobles Tillsonburg shop.

Was in there not to long ago to buy an A5, thought the price was a bit steep so the owner checked online found the going price and beet it. He's a new owner trying to make it in the gun business so I will give him props and recommend his store

I've purchased firearms online from Switzers and GTA Guns. So far I am happy with my purchases but I am mostly looking for 12.6 pistols and older .22s and shotguns for winter projects.

I purchased 3 firearms Friday nights Landsborough auction. Picked up a made in Italy Beretta 950B for $125.00 + $18.75 buyers premium, fees and taxes. Considering how hard it is to find 950B's and this is about 1/3 the price I have been able to find one for I am happy so far. I'll see what the condition is actually like in a week or two.

The auction, anyone participate in the Auction?

I did through Proxibid. (online). It was a first for me with real time online bidding. I made a few pre-auction bids and I did end up with one prohibited from Fridays auction. Got me a nice looking CZ VZ 58 12.3 rifle. $275.00 +fees+taxes+shipping.

FALover I was bidding against you . I already have one so I let it go. Just to let you know my VZ58 was at the lab for 37 months. I hope to be getting it soon. Hopefully that one has already been examined

Not the best experience at Eli's. Found them standoffish, and generally couldn't be bothered even though I bought several hundred dollars worth of reloading items from them. Wont go back.
Haven't had a bad experience at Landsborough Auctions. Can be expensive but as mentioned above that is consumer driven. If attend in person the buyers premium is 10%. Extra 5% is for online auction participants.
Found the staff pretty good at Triggers & Bows to deal with.
