Heads up! Vintage Gallery 'auction'

[Garvin]

This is a special heads up for collectables readers. The Gallery will shortly be having a fundraising drive involving a month-long 'auction' of airgun parts and accessories. It will be unconventional in the sense that bids will be in the form of donations offered, so you'll have to trust us to run it fairly. If you don't, then don't bid in the first place. Obviously don't bid here or involve the BBS in any way, since it has nothing to do with it.

I'm afraid there will be no favours for friends of the Gallery, so please don't ask however desperate you are!

Wow, some great stuff there and a couple of lots I’ll definitely take a punt on.

Those HW & Falke sights are fantastic.

If it’s not all yours then there have been some very generous contributions.

Cheers,
Matt

Quick reminder to get your bids in. Please don't leave it to the last minute - there's nothing to be gained by doing so.

Just to be clear what I'm doing here. I'm trying as far as possible to keep valuable spares and accessories that may help to keep vintage airguns going (and enhance them or inform in the case of books etc etc) in the hands of real collectors. That is, the kind of people who love old airguns as much as I do. I'm not so much trying to maximise value as keep them in our hands as much as I can and benefit the gallery in the process.
