Missed it...
« on: June 14, 2009, 11:51:30 AM »
Last night i was searching for gun stuff on the state gun trader site, and randomly came across an ad for a benji 392 or 397, plus an HB22 and a B2 for $150.  I clicked the ask seller a question, and got all excited.  This morning, hoping to see a reply, I had no reply, and the ad no longer existed. So close, yet so far away.  Really wanted the Benji, and the HB22 would have been sold and the B2 would have been the project after the B-3.  Oh well, I guess the TF-89, MMB-25 or 26 or the Marauder or 2100 or Condor or 1377 are in my future instead 8)

I would guess that every member here has been through that Jason,



You take a minute to look it over, maybe check the book value of the air gun offered, go to ask a question of the owner, and someone posts "I'LL TAKE IT"



In your case, closes the auction :0 :0 :0



Keep watching Jason, but be FAST, these air gun guys are realy quick on the ORDER BUTTON !



See YA, I gotta go watch an auction.

It's like being on Jepardy sometimes, if your finger is not on the button it will get snatched away!

Done that, myself, more than once.  See a gun for a ridiculously low price, do a quick search, come back and it's gone.  Ditto for a bathroom break.  Can't be everywhere at once.

It seems that they have listed it again, but it is up to $200.  How much would you pay for the group?  Benji has a scope on it

Decent 392s go for 95-115 in classifieds lately. HB22 in good shape, seem to be 70-95. B2- well, you know. The whole thing sounded a lot better at $150.



$200 seems pretty steep unless they are all mint. I sorta stalk the HB22... need another gun like proverbial hole in head right now... but someday I will stumble over a decent one down in the double digits somewhere and do something foolish.

Dave, I will see why the price jump.  I really have no need for the HB22, or really the 392, except to replace my dad's.  Just thought it might be something to spend money on
