I don’t know and maybe it’s just me but this is insane!
Of course, none of the bidders had much feedback, so maybe “something is rotten in Denmark"

There you are, a manufactures gun modded and restocked for $2k. Not bespoke but off the shelf polished and smoothed over and a pretty piece of wood.. Its the namesake That sells. I am not a collector. I use all of my guns as well as some Venom onesI can think of worse ways to spend $2k
As someone who collects them I agree. Not shooting them is just wrong. Keeping them locked up in a safe 24/7 is even worse. But yeah, the first thing I thought of when I saw this post was your post. I really cannot imagine you couldn't sell yours for what you think you'd need to. Once a couple get into peoples hands and they make their way into the public eye at FT matches and whatnot, people are going to start knocking at your door for one of their own I think.There you are, a manufactures gun modded and restocked for $2k.

colleciting air rifles and not shooting them is as bad as not doing your wife ,to save her for the next guy.

I’ve dealt with the seller before and never had an issue, but I notice bidders with no feedback or very little seem to drive prices pretty high on their stuff. Could just be because they start their auctions a .01, no reserve, but in my experience of being on GB for over 20 years, they usually drop out earlyMarket manipulation is not a new concept ... sold for $1900.00
I smell something rotten as well .... could just be my own feet
looks a lot more like pellets than breech seal to me...Examine the pictures closely and note the presence of the entire breech seal stuffed into the breech end of the barrel in one picture.
Possibly caused by dry firing the rifle? Would that even matter?
Venom HW 77 owners just got a benchmark price to steer towards, and there may be more examples pop up on the market as a result.

if i handled the rifle and possibly shot it yes i could see $800If it helps the scope and mounts are worth $500+ the stock $500- so say $900- Venon name $200.Stock used HW77 $350+Should be more like $1200-$1400, me I would pay $800.Yes, a bidding war with rich people or they got caught up in the bidding war.
...yup, pellets...but seller didn't really know what he's selling, and removed the pellets on later photos?
Who really knows what your getting when you win that sorta airgun?
Wasn't that scope a non-airgun scope; I thought airgun scopes are made with "AO" for adjustable objective feature???
