    Could I have a photo - f.o.c. - as you smash it up? It doesn't surprise me that the first thing to go is the box.

    Good luck with the sale.

    I'll have the plastic front sections, whatever they're called, the bits with Webley Tempest written on them.

    PM sent - there's a potential buyer that can't see sales.
