    Pellet tins etc,valuation please

    I am looking for a valuation for my pellet collection. I would prefer to sell the lot at one go. Tins are marked with the % of pellets inside. Empty tins are not marked and sealed tins are marked as un opened.

    Not sure about the value of the pellets or tins, Mac, but the red and yellow BSA pylarms tin stands out for me as one that may have some value as I think it's prewar - and perhaps could fetch £15 or more on the auction site alone.

    Would it be worth listing the tins with an estimate of the number of pellets in each so a potential buyer could easily get a total for the different calibres?

    None of the other boxes or tins look particularly valuable to me, but I'm no expert on the subject.

    None of them jump off the page value wise and the condition of quite a few isn't the best either...so I think maybe a steak dinner to the right person perhaps?

    If you zoom in you can see the quantity of pellets in each tin. I cannot post the other photo. I will try again

    Ditto to all, but with the caveat that there should also be enough value there for a nice pudding, too.

    Aye, but a nice Cabernet Sauvignon to accompany it will probably have to come out of your own pocket...

    I'm more of a Merlot man these days, as personally, I find it complements my rare steaks much much more (especially when sitting on top of a couple of pints of Adnams Ghost Ship).
