    A lot of people on gunbroker will not ship internationally.
    Even if you find one that does - don't leave registration to the last minute as non-US buyers have to be pre-approved by sending an email stating your interest and this process can take a few days.

    I just sold one to gingernut for £270 ($338), it is like new condition (a minter) and unusually for an Airsporter very accurate, the best Stutzen performer I have see.

    I just can't enjoy things I overpay for.

    I am just the opposite, price is long forgotten after I sit enjoying a prized possession some time later. The wife is a case in point, still paying after 50 years !

    paramount.That doesn't mean I've not subsequently flicked stuff on though. Probably just to 'stay in the game'.Weird eh?

    Price is a interesting thing. It can certainly be part of the game but if you have a specific interest and you have been looking for a while, the price of most air guns don't demand large sums really. Last year I saw a pistol on gun broker that I had to have, ended paying maybe $50-100 more than it's book value. On a $400 gun it just isn't enough to even worry about, when the odds of seeing another like it may be pretty low.
