I had a look the two spartans the 22 was a bit plain the 177 was better but there was a couple of dinks and the blueing was a bit thin

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!).

I guess it depends if it was bought online... I think it was bought at the auction, so a bargain buyers fee of 24%...

Surprized at the Abas Majors prices, more than some dealers ask. lst one at 650 with what looked like replacement grips. and the 2nd one going for 800 hammer prices. l sold one in better condition also with the plum cocking arm at Kempton in Sept for 525 l thought the cromed WR highest possible was a fair-good buy at 650 hammer. l though the early Webley Mk1 with all the engraving done by D.B in what looked like a repro canvass case was a good buy at 400 hammer. l would have thought the engraving would have cost a lot to do.

And a rather tatty break barrel version went for £5000ish.

That's crazy money.

If I had a Whizzer, I would look to sell it now.

There is definitely a bubble where they are concerned.

Agree with Rustybuzz, way over the odds. Did shoot that rifle many years ago. I wouldn't pay that much for it. On the plus side I won my old FWB back. Mach 1.5
