Tilley lamp sold for AU$700

My bid of AU$25 was out bid. Did any member buy it?

 

Where was it located ?
I guess shipping costs would be half of the actual lamp price.
These Swiss version FL6 boxes are getting scarse also, Like the "Beleuchtungskisten", lantern boxes.
I got mine for less but I had to travel to Swiss with the famliy taking a holiday at the same time.

 

Not I, but I would have liked to have bought it at either of the mentioned prices with all the kit and caboodle.

Didn’t see it, but I’ve bidder around that before and lost.

 

700 Aus$ is about 520euros is about 580us$ is about 410 uk pounds.

A Swiss Tilley FL6 set including the upper stand part is about 300 CH franc is +/- 300euro.
Buy it now pick up in Bern Swiss.
This last words make it difficult. You can't drop the box at a postoffice but it has to be shipped with a big shipper due to the weight at size. Even with friends on location it would be a hassle (I guess).

 

There is a Petromax table lamp, an 833, I think, going to auction through HiBid auctions in Temora, NSW, Australia. About 1 day and 18hrs to the auction start. The company auctioning the lot does not provide shipping so I will not bid. If you are local to the area or don't mind a bit of a drive... best of luck

 

@Jones the lamp , a few other interesting things there too.
