Henry 45-70 Brass with side gate......Fraud, Collusion?

I have been trying to purchase a Henry for about a year now with no such luck. It appears there are abundant quantities here on GB, in fact Henry has even suggested GB as a source. I have bid on several auctions and I can now see the glaring difference between legitimate dealers and those just fishing for higher pricing/profits with installed bidders artificially inflating the auction.

A previous auction is why I am writing this post, although I did not save any screen shots I know the dealer and will post the details here as I see them.

Here is an example of a suspicious auction. Item *******, with No Reserve and the one and only bid is $1,465.00 and there is a 3% Credit Card fee. You may ask why does this look suspicious? Because there are Buy Now Henry's available for much less and No Credit Card fees. Item ****** is offered for $1229.00 and Item ******* is offered for $1199.00. I call this suspicious because there may have been a mistake in the bid and I am not privy to the details but GB should look at this.

You may ask why am I pointing this out? Because I am a legitimate and serious purchaser and I believe that GB as well as all purchasers and sellers should condemn any criminal activity that corrupts the legitimacy of a fair auction.
