    You just have to wonder about people some times

    I bought a Turner Saddlery Sling fior my 1903. It is an excellent sling and I want to put them on a couple other of my rifles but they are a bit pricey so I thought I would check out eBay for used ones. They are bidding used Turner slings up to more before shipping is figured in than I paid for mine brand new directly from Turner Saddlery after shipping and not by insignificant amounts.

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

    Again I ponder at some stuff on flea bay when the latest from the sellers is "Last One" then 2 ads down the same seller same item with no "Last One" all a mind game and I often wonder sometime about shill bidding it may or may not take place but some items you gotta wonder, like $9/AU for an ejector screw for a SMLE or $27/AU for 3 mag cut off screws + P&H....
    One add I saw the postage for a small item was $27 USAicon for a small screw go figure. If I sell on flea bay which is ultra rare the 52K round trip I do to post the item I do not pass on to the buyer as that is my lot
