Value of a relum tornado?

I was thining £30 works ok but has a bit of surface rust on the barrel, this about right?

as i could buy a b2 for that price, and as the internals of a relum are inveriably dog-rough as manufactured(like the aforementioned b2), i would suggest that it is more likely to sell for £5-10, unless you put it on - then you will probably get £60, as idiots on there pay that much for b2's.

are they really worth less than a b2?

well i wouldnt pay £30 quid for one- have seen too many broken ones due to poor manufacturing/quality control. dunno if they are more accurate than a b2, but QC seems to be similar.

QC aside, any item is only worth as much as someone is willing to pay

Someone out there might have had one of these as their first rifle, and could get some pleasure out of restoring it to rekindle old memories etc..

I've still got my first gun, a Slavia 618 in .177 - whole thing's probably only 2 1/2 feet long, brown barrel and worth naff all, but I'd never part with it!

I have one, its in very good condition cost me £25 its part of my collection! There's not many good one's about ! If the stock's good and rust is only on the surface i would rub it off with fine wirewool and 3 in1 oil and keep it as the value can only go up! Realy fine ones go for £60 to £80. I know they were rough but they go well in a collection!!
