Pete,
Ian Skennerton lives on the Gold Coast of AU and has his prices listed in Australian dollars. When converting to $US, the prices are quite different. Not meant to sound like the prices are ALL too high, but just that they need to be converted to $US.
BTW, Ian has a new book on guns coming out around Easter. He previewed it to me when he shot images of my Canadian Mounted Police .308 target rifle to be included in the book. His book is expected to be apx 500 pages with over 4000 images, but get this: he is expecting a price of just UNDER $100. From my preview, it will be a MUST HAVE book for all collectors.
