Old ship model kits for sale

I found a thread on Model Ship World where someone else bought an unbuilt kit, see https://modelshipworld.com/topic/21118-hms-prince-by-pirozzi-amati-164-original-1978-kit-by-vince-p/
Kit by Amati from ~1978, before laser cutting came along. Original price $600 in ‘78 would be a premium kit, hence the wooden box. Amati still sells construction plans online (https://www.amatimodel.com/en/plans-of-construction-static-models/product-hmsprince-plan-b1016.html), in case yours are missing. There is a forum for selling here, or eBay might work?
 
This is the Amati HMS Prince kit. It has been discontinued for some time. I am currently working on mine. Pretty rare these days. Got mine on Ebay. Paid about $400, but that was a deal. I have seen them for as much as $1000. Very nice kit. The instructions are terrible, however, the drawings are very good. The smaller box is the fittings box, I think the fittings run about $200 now. The drawings and fittings kit are still available.
 
Hello

How much would you sell the kit for? Is shipping to Austria possible?

Regards Thomas
