Update on Privi explosion - 5 arrested
Five arrested in connection with Prvi Partizan explosion :: emportall :: Business news from Serbia
I know a couple of collectors interested in lot 456, think they have postal bids in, there is a few things that interest myself but dont know if i,m going, will give the catalogue i good going over tomorrow, lots 29, 30, 125,196 and 308 stand out, will let you know if i,m going.
I was not going to mention lot 308, hoping that tucked away where it is no one else had spotted it.
Just depends on how much of the original is left.
Lot 30 - got it marked up, but for interest only, not being an RFD cannot just buy any number of actions 'on a whim'
How was the auction? I'm on nights at the moment, so about the time the viewing started I was getting in to bed.
Did you bring any new toys home?
Because I'd already worked out I'd be on shift I didn't order a catalogue, were there any good (Enfield) rifles to be had?
I got a good result at the last one. I got a tupperware container full of rusty bits for £12, mostly rough castings of hammers and top levers, but there were 11 Parker Hale scope mounts in it. Most of them cleaned up really nicely and they've been going for between £20-£40 on flea-pay. Not a bad little earner, I'd say I've had about£220 out of that £12 tub so far.
A wide range of pricing, the No8 I was 'going for' seemed to fetch a bit over the odds (at least to my thinking) whilst others fetched very low prices :
To all prices there was 20% to be added for buyers premiuim and tax - prices to actually pay in brackets
No8 Mk1 BSA with NZ markings. Nice but 'well used' condition £600 (£720)
No4 Mk1 with tunnel foresight, little battered but good 'used' condition £80
(£96)
No4 Mk1 De-activated condition similar to the above No4 £130 (£156)
Nice BSA & Co long Lee £400 (£460)
Badly butchered Lee Metford in 410 calibre with no sights and a bead attached on the muzzle. £40 (£46) Not restorable.
10 brass butt plates £10 + 20%
1 off Alfred Parker Matchmaker front sight £10 + 20%
a 1963 RFI action / barrel and a 1944 M47C action and barrel (together as 1 lot) £26 + 30%
60 plastic oil bottles £4.00 + 20%
US$1.63 = £1.00 so £720 would be US$1200
Aus$ 1.91 = £1.00 so £720 would be Aus$1400
Keep it up and I’ll immigrate to Oz and make both your lives miserable with bad jokes I learned online at Gunboards from someone called Dr. Beer.:bitch:
P.S. I still have the $5.00 Australian you sent me for my birthday, the ice cream store here in the U.S. won’t take monopoly money. :crying:
P.P.S. Tell (expletive deleted) Whiterider to put these dancing bananas where the light never shines. :dancingbanana::dancingbanana::dancingbanana:
Signed the better shot ;)
