Yeah I’m not desperate to offload to be honest but would like to reinvest it more toys. 

Several factors honestly. Most people arent going to want to pay 130quid over retail even if it has an added scope. This is even more true if its a GBB. Then the market for GBBs is generally smaller than that of AEGs, so your crowd of potential buyers is smaller. Next, GBBs as DMRs tend to be less accurate than their AEG counterparts, so people looking to field it are going to be turned off by that. This is compounded by only having one mag - people are going to need to buy more if they want to field it (and the mags arent cheap - an extra 50 quid a pop adds up fast). Any gun once used generally drops in value by a third, so at best you should expect to get about 675 by following only that rule ((860+165)*2/3)(though that can vary wildly based on availability, desire, etc.). A collector is just going to buy new, as they will want a perfect condition version, and brand new that gun plus the scope would only cost about 1020 quid. Id set it at 800 open to offers, and see what comes along, expecting to get between 650 and 800 for it. Theres no major issue leaving your starting price that high, but most people are going to ignore it with that high of a price tag, even if its just a fill-in.

Great advice, I knew I was being a quite optimistic at that price. Will drop it and see what happens. Being honest I’m more hoping for a swap but we will see what happens.
