I saw this rifle at H&H in New York a few weeks ago. It is even better in person. That said, I think that they (or whoever consigned it) bought it a Julia a few months ago for about $150,000. I was sorry to have missed it; that felt like a more reasonable price

It's not consigned, Holland & Holland bought it. It's not unusual for them to do that, or raise the price reflective of there margins.
