Looks minty though.
I sell TatarGan in the caliber of the pope. Iron sits in the crocodile. A light bun turned out.
Looked at this holts fees seem mad 30% buyers fee plus 20% vat so if the hammer falls at say £2000 ie £1100 in fees thats
if i read it right ?
Hi if you right and i got it wrong its still way over the top me thinks
There's a huge amount of misinformation about
From our website
BUYERS PREMIUM
Holt's charge a premium to the buyer on the hammer price of each lot sold at the following rates:
25% up to and including £100,000
20% in excess of the hammer price above £100,000
VAT is payable on the premium at the applicable rate.
Under each Lot entry in the online catalogue, there is a buyers premium calculator.
The sellers fee is much less but varies based on the number/value of guns, this covers the reps visits, valuations, transporting thousands of guns around the country, catalogues, websites, insurances and a fair few staff to make the big day with drinks and canapes function properly
Its not ideal for everyone but for high value guns or significant collections its probably the best way to generate maximum value in a short timescale.
You can see the exact all in cost with the calculator under every auction lot online
So based on your £2000 using the calculator
So the buyers premium is £500 (not £1100) or 25%, the VAT goes the the government not us.What is the total payable?
Enter Hammer price £ = £2000
VAT on Hammer Price = 0
Buyer's Premium = £500
VAT on Buyer's Premium = £100
Total Payable = £2,600

A man can always use more alcohol, tobacco and firearms.
Everything depends on the hammer price, we have a lot of buyers in a lot of countries, if you look at what quality collections of airguns make on sale day its often double what you would get selling privately and massively more than trying to sell a collection to an RFD in one hit.
As long as you can agree a reserve that your comfortable with, all the risk is with us to sell it at a good price?

A good few people think nothing of paying £2K-£3K, even £6K on a shotgun. What price a pretty fab air rifle? The better, more sophisticated, ones have as much engineering as any shotgun.
Apologies for straying a bit off thread, but I notice Holts also have a refinished Webley Mk2 Service on offer in the rarer .25 calibre with matching Ser No to the barrel.
The refinish will no doubt put many off, but it will be interesting to see if it reaches anything close to the estimate.

If its not pitted its straightforward to strip the enamel and polish and reblack to the original finish spec...
Might have a punt myself if it goes for the lower estimate
