    So who is going Wednesday to view the air rifles. It's the only day for viewing which seems a bit unreasonable

    Interesting that buyers fees on this auction are 30% and on the US auction for the late Ingvar Alm collection it's 18.5% with a 3.5% discount for cash

    I think it's 24% The salesroom charge 5.9% just to let you bid though from them, best to bid live at the auction or by phone.

    That depends on the specs of a new one... I guess sky is your limit when you order one of these, but this certainly is no bargain

    With a few notable exceptions it was like watching an auction from 25 years ago. The dealers would have had plenty of opportunity to replenish their stocks (no pun intended!).
