Wisdom is merely the realization of how little one knows, therefore I am wise.

Oh cool!, the case that my AC came in, is an original item.  I thought it was just something someone put together. Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin

I paid $500 for my AC over three years ago, and this is for a used one with many handling marks (don't-ya just hate when a gun gets used for it's intended purpose? Wink) Mine was also missing the Tasco Propoint. Frown

 What are the prices of guns in Sweden, as compared to the US?  I guess this likely does not matter in the situation of such a rare firearm.  It's is worth whatever the seller is asking for it, or what you are willing to pay for it.

I have no idea of a fair price for that item, it may be pricey because it is New in Box. You will "lose value" on a NIB item once you shoot it, unless you believe the value is in shooting a fine firearm rather than look at it. Value is in the eye of the beholder, and I hope you "be holding" that one soon

I went to a bookstore and asked the saleswoman "Were is the Self Help Section?" She said if she told me, it would defeat the purpose.

That's one nice looking AC.  Like the others said since its so rare it's worth whatever you and the seller agree on.

American dollars? If so, that's pretty steep...but I'd still probably fork it over, if I could afford to. Something that rare doesn't come along every day.Smile

Has to be USD, as 1350 Swedish Kroner would be about $192.00 US.  Now if this were 1350 Euros, YIKES!

$1350 US is a hard pill to swallow.  I think the AC had a list price of ~$900 US when new.

Despite the high price, I agree with CF.  This type of deal likely will not present itself again.  So, if your budget can absorb the hit and you really like the gun, you should consider taking the plunge.  While you may be taking a partial whack on the price (maybe not since no one really knows what it's worth), your investment likely will only appreciate in the long run due to its rarity...just my thoughts.

No, I will pass on it. My first choice was a PPC anyway. I'll lay low and wait for an opportunity.

Do you know if the seller will ship the gun to the US?
