Nothing special by today's standards its just the fact it's an SA58 and came out when classic army had good build quality. Always want the folding stock version but last time I saw one for sale new it was £400ish before importing costs so sod that.

So at £210 and in stock new, do we make that £140 for the used RIF and hi-cap and.... £30 each for the "brand new" (used) mid-caps?

I can’t be arsed to check the price, as that isn’the reason I’ve popped it up here, it’s the “can’t tell it was ever two toned “ statement

A bit over priced. Great mags, but can be had new for a tenner each if you shop around.

Ahh yes but you must remember these ones have been ‘beded in’ for you already so ‘technically’ they’ve been worked on so that means ‘technically’ there ‘upgraded’ and as we all know on here ‘upgraded’ = higher price ! Savvy ??
OR poor bloke got rogered on the original price from a uk retailer and thinks that’s a fair price !?

Looks like this EBB variant, which is, surprise surprise, out of stock.
I've come round to accepting that the prices of things that aren't in stock just aren't that meaningful, because it's not like we're just waiting a few days or weeks for a restock.
To be clear, I think he's a dreamer, especially for not listing any details. But there's no right or wrong price for it, just optimistic ones.

Fair play tbh, it's a little rough around the edges but that took time, effort, etc and values always get murky in that respect

Looks more like it was "foot carved". I mean, points for effort, but if I was going to buy something like that, for that money, I'd commission it from someone who can actually do decent work.

Definitely a dreamer , unfortunately his time and effort aren’t worth diddly squat when your NOT a professional woodworker , as good an effort as it is(which it is) it certainly doesn’t look like a professional woodcarvers work by any stretch . £800 ? nope sorry bud but your way off the mark with that one .
