US Buyer here. Story is I was desperately looking for one on eBay and Amazon, until I found this site.

I'm looking to buy a spare FE Golden Gun Cufflink. I have PayPal and I'm willing to negotiate a good price for one. I'm also willing to shoulder any international fees and shipping with tracking.

Here's to hoping there are still some spares left for sale. Thank you.

    Hi, again. I'm willing to pay US$100.00 for one. I'm open for all offers.

    BTW, I can only repair now and not replaced.

    The original factory will not do a small run - they insists on a min of 1,000 pieces
    At about $6 a piece - that is $ 6,000 min.

    We need more funding to make this happen sadly.

    Well here is my take on it. $100.00 dollars is not enough for a replacement cufflink. There is a member on this site who I am sure monitors these boards who had a big hand in design and construction of the original FE GG and could make a cufflink from scratch and have it gold plated. To be fair the cost for this would be more than $100.00 as the gold plating would cost that alone unless you get loads done at once. I wont name the chap other than to say his work is admired amongst most on this forum. Might be worth upping your budget and seeing if you get a response. Just my take on things. Other than that good luck in your search.

    I think that you have your wires crossed somewhere BOFFER, FE had Big Chief do the 3d scan of There GG and they made two 3d printed GG samples, both of which I use to own, one grey and one painted gold, both now reside in friends collections -{

    The person that you are talking about though, could easily make a trigger behind his back with his eyes closed :D

    Ouch, that's way out of my league.

    Yeah, you definitely have a point. I know it would be very different to make one from scratch. If that is the case, I could easily go up to $300 for a custom-made one for the FE GG. My base $100 offer is for a spare pre-made cufflink from the FE run.

    is it ok if the plating don't matched 100%?
    that is my concern

    Hi, I don't mind if the plating doesn't match 100%.

    I think you would need a magnifying glass to see the difference between the original item and a replacement one, even if the gold plating was new. Most GG look new anyway as few owners take them out and play with them so the plating looks new on most guns anyway. Good luck.
  • jenova-s_angeljenova-s_angel California, USAPosts: 24MI6 Agent
    Just an update: I'm still looking for one and willing to pay. B-)
  • BOFFERBOFFER Posts: 331MI6 Agent
    No worries. I did receive a message from the member on this forum who can make you a replacement trigger and his words were that he was happy to make you one and had messaged you regarding making you one but hadn't had a response. Check your messages and see if its there. If not I am happy to pass on your message if you like. As already mentioned there will be no difference between the original item and the fabricated one, they will be identical. I know this.
    Good luck.
