The seller should be following the rules for such items and posting the prices wanted for each in the for sale section so no unfair behind the door transactions or possible bidding can possibly be taking place as it now appears to be happening and against the well known and long established rules.

Try as I might, I cannot find anything in my post offering these items for sale,yet. I am only trying to get an accurate real world value.
Also, I cannot find any "rule" that you reference to.

Again, these "rules" apply to for sale/trade ads.
I am simply trying to get an idea from informed people such as yourself to their value.
I am now wondering how this seems to offend you?

Good luck with getting your prices. You may want to do a search for past sales on gun broker. You can view a ways back. You can also look at results from some of the auction sights. Rock island used to allow this but has shut down all but the most previously held ones. Again good luck, nice rifles.

Thanks for the suggestion... It appears as if there has only been one rifle listed and relisted in the last few months - it is a 2 barrel set. It appears as if there were not too many made, not too many sold, or no one wants to sell theirs!

Not offended at all it just appeared as if one here was trying to purchase the WH52 directly from you without going through the proper for sale or trade process for this site who knows those rules. Those are some real nice rifles and I wish you the very best they will indeed make someone and hopefully someone here very proud new owners should you choose to list them for sale here.

For what it's worth, there is another fellow asking for the same estimations on a gun he wants to buy. Happens all the time here. Buy, sell, asking for info shouldn't be a crime. Nice guns, but I haven't any guess on what to ask for 'em.

“Gauging Interest” sounds like a sale advertisement to highest bidder to me.  Fellows ask for values all the time & get polite informed reply’s

However will answer your question.  Pair of High Walls chambered with poor choices, value as action for a project only. 1000 dollars per gun. I don’t know anything about German guns.
