Air Rifle did not get past customs
It looks like my Theoben is no longer for sale.
I cannot quite see how the system allows a wanted advert to attract detailed offers of air rifles for sale when an advert offering the same is disallowed.
Anyway I have put pics in my gallery of the rifle that is not for sale If you are not part of the solution,you are part of the problem!

Bruce, you're quick - was just about to PM you about it - it's pending a decision from Da Boss, he will reinstate it or contact you about it.
I'm aware of the wanted thread hence yours has just been removed from public view for now, not deleted. Air rifles are a bit of a grey area that needs clarifying by MartinThe End

OK cheers, I know Ebay took the view that no weapon of any sort would be entertained, but when there is no legal issue it seems rather draconian.
Provided the buyer and the seller are both over 17 years of age it is not really contentious.If you are not part of the solution,you are part of the problem!

18 years old now.A common mistake made when trying to come up with a totally foolproof design is to completely underestimate the innate ingenuity of fools. :doh:

I had this on Freel2, its easier to blanket out all weapons as Martin and the Mods can not know all laws on what can be sold and to whom, with such things as age and whether they can be posted or not etc
This was prior to the recent wanted thread on here though.

Any issues with the site let me know!
Hmm, contentious one for sure. We sell cars on here, and more die in motoring incidents than air-rifle related incidents each years.
There are age limits applicable to car use and air rifle use.
Ok, TIC mode off
I'm pretty au-fait on the law around these things so Martin, if you want to take this off line for a quick chat, you know where to find me.
Cheers
AlI know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.
