    Great result, Trev! By 'quid' do you mean NZ dollars?

    Presumably the fact that New Zealand is effectively an 'internal market' these days is forcing airgun prices downwards? If someone could spend a month gathering them up and bringing a container load back to the European market there may be some money in it, if customs didn't interfere...

    Quid=pounds(currency of Gt ). I did a 'conversion'for you. Our NZ dollar is worth about 45 pence......and getting cheaper by the minute.I'll do some pics tomorrow.Trev

    Yeah that would have been ridiculously cheap, it's true.

    Great score, especially the Haenel-R! that one alone covers all auction cost. When that German is giving you a hard time, sent her over to the Netherlands for some Disziplin!

    If this helps I shall be in Albany on Saturday and loading a container for the UK in about a month. It should hit the UK before Xmas.

    Move fast enough and this can be in it. Please remember that NZ is 12 hours in front, while also 25 years behind and a whole lifetime better.

    And when a Yorkshireman tells you it's good tha'd best listen.

    Owt to help, Mick

    Hi Trev,

    Nothing from the UK but I've some Land Rover stuff to come from Coatesville and some petrol cans from Matakana later today, Saturday. I made the obligatory pilgrimage to Horopito yesterday and plan to be back to Dannevirke on Sunday. I think I bid on the Haenel at Ted's last sale.

    Oh well, doesn't look as if any of the BBSers are very interested, does it?

    I'll keep tuning in although I've had most of a week with computer problems.

    Al the best, Mick

    I should have said that the deadline would actually be late October if you were willing to post to Dannevirke.
