    The hardest part of selling your rifle is to be honest with your appraisal of it some just want the world for an average firearm for instance there is a dealer here in Aust that has MkIII's for sale on the web (usedguns.com.au) nothing really special from $1,200~$1,850/AU which they will not get so just based on your pics without looking at the bore and other bits like H/S I opted for a mid-range sale price you could advertise it for a bit more its up to yourself. Me I never sell once you have them it only costs the license fee to own them and ones in good condition will in years to come appreciate but they do need some occasional maintenance RLO & oiling the metal and bore.
    Like Peter L says "They aint making them anymore."

    I think what Cinders suggests of $600-$700 wouldn't be too much at all. Perhaps a bit more too since it's so nice.

    As Bindi2 has alluded this disease is incurable once it has you it can only be eased by aquiring more Lee Enfields besides the other 2 in the safe will miss the one being sold?

    No, it's curable. I had it bad but I'm cured. Nearly my guns are gone and I still enjoy looking and reading when there's time.
