Top dollar to date? An excellent 1st pattern mk2 Webley Service from a known collection about 3 years ago. A lot less than advertised nowdays.

How very true Carl. Strange how you remember the ones that got away rather than the ones you overpaid on. As others have said, collecting is full of swings and roundabouts.
