Kitman Posted March 14, 2014 Share Posted March 14, 2014 Specialist Auctions is great place for military bits 'n bobs with which to theme out my vehicle and ammo collection, etc, but where has it gone?? :cry: :cry: I can't seem to find it on google anymore, after a couple of "cannot find server" messages. Any news/info, guys? Cheers :-) :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they have had a major server breakdown, or an alien abduction :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stanleyrf89 Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 Yes - seems to have vanished into thin air, shame as it used to have lots of bits and pieces, with prices much more reasonable than eBay, I was never quite sure how it made its money so perhaps there is no mystery - they just ran out of cash?

Kitman Posted March 15, 2014 Author Share Posted March 15, 2014 A real shame if it's permanent. I will keep looking or a while. On the ordnance and ammo side it was ideal - some really interesting or rare pieces at non-dealer, collector prices. I got x5 unfilled 51mm mortar green, stencilled HE bodies, with fuses, for my display at £30 each. I had never even seen these before, other than in drill form (and then only once at Stoneleigh this year - asking price £120!!). Also, the same guy sold me x5 factory fresh white smoke bodies, complete with caps and all the parachute internals for £10 a go. Now that's a good price, and both sets were pristine. I got some nice 84mm Carl Gustav rounds there, too. It was also good for belted stuff, etc. Bummer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kitman Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 It seems that Specialist Auctions are back online. That's good, save that the pic's of the items are now teeny tiny! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
