Lord Geordie Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 Well that was fun Sat from 2pm through till near midnight :blink: Still i managed to get a few bits for the wait. A 410 single barrel for the young laddy and a 12g single barrel for meself 410 was about £14 and the 12g went for about £10 can't grumble as well as getting loads of other stuff. Came home with nearly the same amount of cash as i LEFT with. Plenty good chaps there i met 2 lads from the TOG there and it beat sitting round the house. Some interesting lots there but the prices seemed HIGHHER than what you would pay in the shops for the Cartridges :o Still i will be back for the next one i think even though it takes near 4 hours to drive there LG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ayano3 Posted April 8, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 Lots of good gear went quite cheap.........the HV80 with scope and sound moderator only made £50 , a friend I know brought it.. Must admit I didn't buy much, really I only went to see what the gear I put in the sale made.....£170 better off Pleased you had a great day Lord Geordie, if I had known earlier that you were in the area you could have stayed over and had a day with me after a few Lincolnshire woodies. Next Sale 27th October Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenlander Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 I never got to it in the end as I had to work you have to get there early for a look at the guns ,as once the bidding starts thats your lot, you cant just bid on them if you have'nt looked them over,as i've picked up guns there in the past that looked ok, but then found dents in the barrles ,broken fireing pins and all sorts I know what you mean about some of the prices being high for things like cartridges,and they go mad for snap caps paying more than you can get them new from the shop for, makes me wonder if some of them boys ever get into a town and gunshops, I think they must crawl out the marsh once a year and stock up on old cartridges and things that shine. All the best Mick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Geordie Posted April 8, 2006 Report Share Posted April 8, 2006 (edited) Qu Quote you cant just bid on them if you have'nt looked them over,as i've picked up guns there in the past that looked ok, but then found dents in the barrles ,broken fireing pins and all sorts Tell me about it There was a heap of guys cocking the Shotties and firing them over and over again. I was CRINGING . I wanted to say something but eventually the auctioneer did JUST that and told em to stop firing them dry It was like being in a room full of clocks all you could here was " click click clikc click click click click click :< Still the ones i bought are fine and my kid is real happy with his new 410 LG Edited April 8, 2006 by Lord Geordie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
