Many thanks for coming back on the Buffalo question.

In terms of value, as regarding the most talked about warbird ever, this has got to be in the top 3. However, it did seem to me, that a certain amount of hysteria seems to be attached to this aircraft, which does tend to "muddy the water" as regards true values of recoveries.

Once again, many thanks for contributing the thread, and now you know where we are, don't be a stranger :0)

Best regards

: Hi Guys,
:
: Regarding the asking price of the Brewster, first off, the
: Great vehicles ad is an old ad not posted by us. But you
: may be interested to know that the Brewster Buffalo was ap
: praised ( yes by a qualified and accredited appraiser ) at
: a fair market value that exceeded the asking amount on th
: at ad. I have a copy of the appraisal sitting in front of
: me that gives the justification on how they came to that n
: umber. Is that a realistic value? To some it is, but to ot
: hers it's not and some have said you can't put a value on
: an aircraft like the Brewster. In the end, the true dollar
: value will be determined by how much the Buffalo ends up
: selling for. As for its historical value, I guess thats up
: for debate!
:
: BTW, if anyone of you can produce a Brewster Buffalo for m
: e, I can sell it for you right now. Provide me photos and
: proof of ownership, and I?ll get the ball rolling right n
: ow. I can also arrange it to be donated to a museum of yo
: ur choice.

: All the best,
