    Sold a s410 superlight rifle t'other day complete with zoom scope,case and bipod for £325......just seen this ad on that infamous site https://www.freeads.co.uk/uk/buy-sel...air-rifle/view and now it has got me thinking I sold to cheap.

    Depends on the condition and what scope, bipod yours came with. Good condition, with basic no frills scope and generic bipod I would say £400,ish give or take

    Trumpetier is on the money for me - the guy placing the ad should be reported for drug abuse, you just know he was high when he posted that figure?

    You can advertise for what ever price you want, doesn't mean your going to get it.

    I would say that if the rifle you sold gave you many years of good service and put a smile on your face and you got your asking price then all is as it should be. If the buyer got him/herself a bit of a bargain then look at it this way, that same person will now have a share in the fun you once had.

    Don't let sellers remorse get in the way, life's too short and I should know. I like Gibson guitars, especially Les Pauls , unknowingly I once undersold a very nice "1955/74 Special" and it ate into me for ages afterwards but you cannot turn back the clock.

    I'd say so depending on the condition and the scope ofcourse.

    Hardly used it,less than a tin of pellets but did have a nick in the rear of the stock and a bit of damage to the barrel.....I got what I thought the rifle was worth so I have no remorse.

    It doesn't matter what the asking price is, an item is only worth what someone is willing to pay

    Weebster, the socks being used do indeed have holes. This makes them holy and as such religious artifacts. I believe I may have under valued them hence price is now £650! You may blame Brexit on the increase if you wish, everyone else seems to......

    Its times like these when these ad's appear on that site when I know we need a online national register of stolen gun serial numbers that can be checked out in seconds. He's been very busy 'buying' and selling this fella...hmmm.
