You never know, could it also be worth asking AA and see if they have any spare in stock ?

About 20% success ... a couple of stocks and an action come to mind. Other requests disappear into the ether but never mind. I do admit though that while I often browse 'Sales' I am an infrequent visitor to 'Wanted' and have never given/sold anything there that I can remember. I have at times managed to 'donate foc' a few odds and ends where the request has been made in a post elsewhere ... e.g in General or Collectables.
Cheers, Phil

I have put only a single wanted ad on the BBS (that was back in 2010 - sad .. I just checked) for a .177 BSA Mercury S.

Someone on here remembered seeing an ad whilst on holiday in the West Country in a local paper and from that piece of information, I tracked down the advert and made the enquiry.

Had to drive from Southampton to Penzance to collect it, but it was worth it (still have that rifle now and was actually using it a few days ago).

Although the rifle wasn't supplied direct by a BBS member per se, it was the wanted ad on here that ultimately got me the rifle I was after.

Guess that makes it a 100% success rate for me then
