Grade 00 guns are very common; and unless your gun has survived in virtially new conditon, or is a 16 or 20-bore with ejectors, it is remote that any knowledgeable collector will pay anywhere near that kind of money. If you visit these auction sites regularly, you will see the same guns advertised week after week at the same outrageous "fishin' for an idiot" prices. If the gun shows some use; but seems solid otherwise, have the gun inspected by a gunsmith qualified in vintage double guns; and assuming it is determined to be sound, enjoy using the gun with shot shells designed for vintage doubles.
