    You need the right buyer in the right place at the right time unless you price stuff to appeal to passing bargain hunters

    As Nick says really, its not a stonkin' bargain - looks priced about right really for one in that condition.
    Might of sold a bit easier if you'd put it back to how it should be first rather than offering it down on power...

    Very good point, that. Consider replacing the spring with the full power one, and supply the lower power spring as an extra... Might just swing it. After all, the Scorpions were popular because of their beastliness

    Fwiw

    I think your price is spot on with postage in there as well as the new spring, and the rather nice silencer adaptation.

    What does £80 posted buy you S/H otherwise?

    As for condition, well that is what it is, but I would wager it looks a lot better in the flesh than the photos - flash photography makes things look worse than they are.

    That gun will still be blatting out pellets long after the higher priced monkey metal co2 wannabes have given up the ghost.

    The springs got to be worth a tenner?
    The silencer 20 sheets?
    Well where will you find a scorpion silencer adapter any way? Lets say for arguments sake another tenner for that?
    The postage, packing and trip to the PO will cost you what??? a tenner?
    That leaves the gun costing - £30

    It's a cracking bargain looking at it that way.

    If I didn't have two already, and a need to diminish the collection in any case, I would have snapped your hand off
