sidibear Posted January 6, 2008 Report Share Posted January 6, 2008 I have two 2 1/2" brass shell cases that used to be placed either side of my fireplace, we have changed the fireplace to one more modern and they don't really suit it anymore. They are about 9 1/2" tall and about 2 1/8" at the top tapering down to 2 1/2" at the bottom. They would probably polish up really nicely. There are a lot of stamping on the base so they have been used quite a bit. £20 the pair +postage? For sale on here as eGay decided they were dangerous and removed the listing, here is my response to them. eBay Listing Removed: Firearms, Weapons, and Knives (=PS &12363 JM171802777) Hiya, two harmless decorative pieces of brass are banned? Oh but hang on,220188179259 (rifle grenades) prove that they don't go bang, and have you done a search for Bayonet recently? Nanny state or what? I know all about the Criminal reduction bill in relation to the sale of weapons but I honestly cannot see anyone walking into a bank and attempting to rob it with an empty brass shell case, or attempting to mug someone with said brass casing. The only way it could be made into a weapon is to put it into a sock and beat someone over the head with it, which you can also do with a housebrick. Are we to ban building materials next? Remember when eBay was like an online car boot sale and a great fun place to be? Sadly due to over restrictive legislation those times are gone. Have a nice day before someone says its illegal.
