Just cleaning the garage out ready for a builder to come tomorrow and I came across one of those pigeon decoy thingys. I bought it years ago of a chap with the intention of pigeon shooting but it ain't really my cup of tea.
It's home made using a wiper motor with a speed regulator and quite a nice thing (obviously home made, quite robust) and has the arms with it.
Question is, if I put it for sale what's a fair price ? I haven't got a clue what to ask as when I bought it we did a deal on some stuff.
How much gents ??

Bearing in mind I don't want to rip anyone off

If it's well made, not too f'ugly and works well, I imagine that should bring £40-£50 plus post.

Cheers George, I'll get some pics and put it on here at £45 or offers. I hadn't got a clue

Thing is, you can pick up a 'factory-made' one for about £90, so that seems about right.

Yeah, it'll do anyway george. It was just sat forgotten in the garage so may as well see if it's of any use to someone. I'd rather it used than scrapped, that's just a waste and I can't be doing with that (50's child see, waste not want not)
