    Purchasing air rifles on Egun.de

    Has anyone any experience of purchasing from this site?

    I'd be interested in the pro's and con's as there were a few items with international shipping available that interested me.

    I bid on and won my 1966 HW55T on egun and it was sent with no problems at all and arrived fine.

    No sights but with original Shroud and decent metalwork and stock.

    Including carriage it cost me £195.00

    Opportunity is missed by most people, because it is dressed in overalls and looks like work.

    I bought 2 Walther CP 2 CO2 match pistols a couple of years ago - No problem at all.

    Have bought 3 guns fwb 300s / 300su / 601 with no issues, delivery normally is done via dhl and that should cost anywhere up to €30

    I have found that for the guns I have been interested on they are cheaper and in better condition than what can be sourced here

    I use the edge browser and enable the translator and that does a pretty good job of making everything understandable.

    For my transactions I did a Western union bank transfer as you don't have to pay transaction charges as they make their money on the currency exchange (which I have normally found to be very reasonable)

    Feel free to pm me if you have any other questions

    The email that they send in reply has a six digit code attached. You have to use that on your first log-in. It then gives you the ability to log on. The only troubles I've found are:
    * that the front page can be translated, but then you open other pages with no option to translate (unless it's my browser playing up).
    * attempts to question vendors regarding shipment costs have been met with " your account has not yet been validated" (in German), so maybe I need to exercise some patience (which is a problem when there are a couple of interesting items on there).
