They've been on for some time with no bids. They started off at some totally ludicrous buy it now price IIRC & it has slowly been dropping a little lower over time as nobody has taken the bait. I presume the smaller item is a small hand held telescope. The main item is a genuine WW1 Periscopic Prism Company sniper scope but it lacks its original rings & also the objective housing - not sure if lenses are actually missing or not (didn't look closely as not interested), but regardless, not an easy item to complete. I have bought two of these scopes recently complete with their ring assemblies for less than this one is being advertised for. Not a bargain unless you have the necessary spares & can do some hard haggling with the seller.
