Model Forum / General / Models / January 2007Ebay question
In this auction, we have a replica handgun; I've never sold one of these before. I jumped through the hoops about not sending it worldwide and stuff, but is that right? It's spring-loaded and doesn't shoot anything dangerous, but Ebay's very particular about what can be sent outside of North America. Any ideas here? http://search.ebay.com/_W0QQfgtpZ1QQfrppZ25QQsassZskyway777 Minicraft Walther P-38 Luger 7mm 1:1 replica Stephen Tontoni avait écrit le 11/01/2007 : > In this auction, we have a replica handgun; I've never sold one of these > before.

I wouldn't think of sending it to the UK,there's been a big fuss about replicas (which can be reactivated) being sent to crims here and reactivated to be sold on in pubs. I realise your is probably not that sort of replica ,but the authorities are pretty jumpy about it at the mo. > >In this auction, we have a replica handgun; I've never sold one of these > >before.

Just good for target practice. On the other hand, it looks realistic enough that you could knock over a 7-11 with it!

Try a gun show instead. If officials get all excited about the word "replica" then you might consider the use of "scale model" instead. Good Luck BA > Australia is out, the Customs will confiscate it and prosecute the buyer > for importation of a firearm.( even though it's a replica) Socialism's progress requires that the country's resources be managed most efficiently. All citizens are "resources" under Socialist doctrine and as that Canadian female Government Minister pointed out in a speech a couple of years ago "Men are more manageable when they are disarmed". Enjoy the benefits of Socialism! >>Australia is out, the Customs will confiscate it and prosecute the buyer >> for importation of a firearm.( even though it's a replica) [quoted text clipped - 5 lines] > > Enjoy the benefits of Socialism! you must be a yank? > you must be a yank? Socialism can only be enacted by force and loss of individual rights. Force in that the individual is forced to pay an unnecessary amount of taxes to their govt. And loses individual freedoms as well.......

Whether you want them to or not! Bill Shuey -snip- > Australia is out, the Customs will confiscate it and prosecute the buyer > for importation of a firearm.( even though it's a replica) In Australia, it seems to depend on the particular state involved. http://tinyurl.com/y2289u Cheers, |
