    Webley Excel Valuation, Please

    I am about to put my ex-Webley Museum .177 Excel up for sale (someone already has first right of refusal), but I don't know what price to put on it. It is exactly as I bought it at the auction, as far as I can see it is in brand new condition, although there are a couple of minor dings which presumably occurred during transport to the Wallis and Wallis auction rooms - photos here:

    Left side:


    Right side:


    Ding in woodwork:


    Slight marks:


    As ever, any help would be most appreciated!

    Be doing well to get £150 for a 177 Webley Excel

    I reckon if you get £125 fair enough for both parties

    Tell me about it, things have been a bit rough recently and I'm afraid I've had other things to concentrate on. Still splatting clays and I've joined the Tunnel target centre recently to get a little shooting mojo back. Shooting the .243 inside is an interesting experience...

    I'm sorry to hear you've not been having a good time, Rich - the offer for you to come and join us for whatever kind of shooting appeals is always open. Likewise, if you just want a chat at any time.

    Vulcan without a safety catch in a youth sized stock, Of interest to a Webley collector maybe, but deluxe Vulcans don't make a fortune, mint condition status sadly detracted by dings, may still be the most original one in the UK as teenagers rifles tend to be used so fewer will be unadulterated than its Vulcan cousins.

    Excels seem to sell for around 100 in good used condition, £150+ if there's a collector hankering after one
