only 2 bloody dollars!
Bon jour Eric,
I had US$300 on each of them. You would have made more money but I was at work when they ended. You should have ended them on a weekend. Not a happy camper now  , really wanted them.If anyone has another pair of WS19 spares cases - especially AUST AWA ones, that they are wishing to realise, I am extremely interested. Pedr

The buyer would appear to be Alan Kerr from Milarm. He has a private museum located above his gunstore in Edmonton Alberta.
I must say I was a bit surprised these went for so much. I always considered them to be a $40 box.

$40 dollar boxes
G'day Rob,
Guess those boxes are only $40 if you've gott'em and don't need any more of 'em. Maybe I bid too much, but I don't have them and I need/want them. It's the same with all this stuff now. The day's of paying with what is loose in your wallet are gone. ( Ebay's probably to blame too ). Bought my carrier for $1000, now they're worth 6 or 7 times that for equivalent. Still, I have seen post war adverts with carriers for sale to farmers for 50 pounds, even though 50 pounds was alot back then, they're equivalently much more expensive now. Pedr

A BIG Thanks !!!
I wish to thank David Pope AKA Cletrac
    , for his notifying me to the sale on Ebay of this item. I really can't say enough, how appreciative I am of his assistance.After a small discussion with the seller about shipping the item outside the US, I snapped it up....and it appears to be NOS, Judging by the colour I am thinking that it's a US one ( PYE ). It will sit just lovely next to my 19 in my carrier. Thankyou,Thankyou,Thankyou,Thankyou. I do feel like I'm robbing the poor girl though, as I was fully prepared to pay more than double this for the ones Eric was selling. Now to find the other box too! Thankyou David once again. Pedr Photo's aren't great...they're the Ebay ones. Posted here for posterity as Ebay gets rid of them and later on these threads look dumb without the pictures that match the items we were talking about.
