    Diana prices.

    Seem to have shot up again.

    Will they never learn?

    I hoped they had learned. Where are you seeing the prices, Arthur?

    Solware and Pellpax.

    Granted they certainly aren't the cheapest outlets for airguns.

    However there aren't that many retailers stocking Dianas.

    Yes, I see that now. The 34 Premium up by about £100 since the last time i looked. Shame. Can't see Dianas on Welsh Willy's site now. I think they mentioned supply problems on their site some months ago. You would have thought Edgar Brothers would have given the whole thing a kick up the a**e. Someone needs to. They deserve a chance.

    Yes, I was looking at the 34 Premium too.

    Very disappointing how the price has shot up in a matter of weeks.

    I won't be buying another Diana.

    Idiotic policy.

    My local (Park Street Guns) don't stock them, but they were able to order one at a competitive price. It's always worth asking.
    Good deals with these members

    Not a good situation but I wonder if it means somewhere else in the world is lapping them up? I've noticed the Diana website has been down for several weeks as well. They need to get organised.

    The break barrel rifles are lovely though aren't they?

    Do they do the 34 Compact in .177?

    They do (or did) produce it in .177 but I only see .22s listed in the UK, currently.
    I tend to buy my Diana's used as you can get real bargains.I regret not getting a new 34 Premium when they were £270 ish though.

    Im suprised to see how much the prices have gone up lately, i was looking at the smk product magazine and was looking to see how much tbe diana stutzen was and if i remember i think it was £599, i may be wrong but it totally put me off!

    They need to have a word with themselves.

    I also like the 280 carbine but that was also over priced in my opinion.

    It is not only the German stuff that have shot up. Look at the Chinese stuff. The PCPs are all in the £400~£500 now. It makes £750.00 for an HW 100 seem like a bargain.

    I paid £365.99 in advance for a 430L, now that's on par if not a bit cheaper than the competition but that was not with SMK it was a local gun shop via EBs when the 2weeks waiting time increased in stages to over 2 months at earliest I cancelled mainly due to the fact that I had ordered a stock to for the 430L and he needed the action, so I changed my order to a HW 97 and will have the stock made for this , (so much for wanting something different)
