AA Firepower

[fantom13]

Hi all

Guess im just testing the water, ive taken an interest in another form of shooting, so to fund this ive decided on using my AA firepower, i said in another post that my local gunshop would take it in px for a pistol, they have offered £90 - £120, I trust them to the ends of the earth but also appreciate i may get more from a private deal?
any comments or opinions or if your interested let me know

Treating this as a valuation thread then (you will have to start a fresh thread if you wish to sell it ), seeing as how the shop in turn will have to sell it on, I think that is a very fair trade-in price indeed, as tops it is worth £200 if mint (and I mean mint) or if is just vgc £150 (have this week just bought a Sussex Armoury Jackal, complete with dummy mag for £150, so know this to be correct ). Hope this helps. Atb: G.

If you're still interested in selling this air rifle, please let me know. I'm afraid I don't have internet access during the week. But am very interested.

As a newbie, you were automatically sent a p-m (personal message) strongly advising that you read the stickies/rules (a p-m which I know you received in the last two days). Sorry, but the sticky at the top of this page warning against offering to buy off the back of valuation request threads, could not be clearer, so unfortunately you have earned yourself a weeks ban from the BBS. Rules are rules mate. New broom when you come back however .

Awww, good grief ... You are a newbie, tiz the weekend (nearly), and I am in an exceptionally good mood, so just consider your wrists slapped, and on we go (no temporary ban this time ). Atb: G.

The value will obviously depend on the condition but in my experience gun shops tend to be a bit "tight fisted" when it comes to trade in's.

Irrespective of valuations people will often pay more if it's something they really want. It just depends how much they want it and what is desireable at the time. You often see cycles on here when it comes to 'buying' or 'selling' or 'wanting' particular types of guns i.e. Jackal's, HW77's, CP88's, Makarov's etc.

Just remember, with 'collectable items', once they are gone, they are often gone for good. You only have to check out the posts on this forum along the lines of "I wish I had never sold...blah, blah".
