'GD' Airsporter price ?

[Troubledshooter]

A friend has a highly collectable BSA Aisporter Mk.2 in .22 calibre with three piece stock in superb condition, 95% for both action and stock, with superb etching.
He is thinking of selling but is not sure on value.
I do not have any pictures but trust his description.
Anyone got any ideas ?

Ha ha ... Not me this time, as don't need another, but I sold one similar for £175 collected, one in vgc for £125 posted, and an average (but still very nice) example to a BBS friend for £75 plus post earlier this year, so see the price range as quoted above (and again imho) as being right on the money .

Thanks for the replies so far.
The figures given so far, tally up with my own estimate, but he seems to think it's worth quite a lot more, hence the reason for this thread.
I am not interested in it as it's .22, but if it was .177, who knows.
I've basically run out of space, so it's got to be something special to tempt me nowadays.

If your friends Airsporter has not got a foresight hood, there is one for sale on "e##y."

The BSA foresight hood offered on Eb@y is the later 'rounded' type, not the earlier 'angular' type which is so difficult to obtain.
