Why are used TC pistols so high priced like old banged up 350 thousand mile Toyota trucks?

I recently threw down a 450 dollar bid on a TC pro hunter stainless 14 in with a burris pistol scope and it sold for 900 dollars. I thought 450 for an auction TC would be a strong bid, wrong. I hate those things, being the TCs overpriced reputation. Theyre only single shot break overs! I wished New England would build some and hurt the TC sales. I bought a rem 700 .223 26 in bull barrel rifle with a leupold 3x9x40 with bipod and sendero stock for 600 on auction, so what the heck? Same reason I don't bid on Toyotas, ridiculous!
Recently got a gym membership, strange folks! I like to show up the roid zombies with my full motion curls with the 55lb. bells. Not their cheater short stroked light weights. It's holarious.

Simple economics...supply vs. demand!
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

Look at encore classifieds. They're not all that expensive. If you compare they're performance to that of a Ruger revolver, they look much better.
The secret to a long life is to try not to shorten it.

I'm not sure how you figured $450 was a fair price for the gun with a Burris scope on it? You would sell that gun for $450 with a scope on it? It's a very poor comparison to compare a contender or an encore to a break open single shot learner shotgun.

Got one. Turned over 155K today.
Had two pistol frames and a few barrels several years ago. Custom pistol grips, polished/plated trigger groups set at 12oz. Used to shoot pistol silhouette matches. Sold them to my shooting partner when I decided I liked shooting animals of flesh and blood more than steel.
Still regret selling them.

My 15" encore in 7-08 would shoot 3/4" at 100 yards. That's a pretty handy, lightweight deer killer.
