SKB I agree that it is not economical to buy and import low dollar guns. It seems that with Holts every gun I get a report on and bid on or just bid on goes for about two or three times the bid estimate. I set my bid limit and once it goes past that I am out. I don't figure the cost to import the gun into my bid as a rule but know I should. That would put me at much lower dollar figure but it evens out for in country bidders often have VAT which exceeded my import cost. At 550 your fees to import is very reasonable. I'd rather pay for the service than end up pulling out my hair trying to get people to use their brains and do their jobs.
