No 207 Fuze --- What should I pay

What should I pay for one of these, as it's a 1940 No 207 it would be a good fuze for my 1937 cased
3"20Cwt round I think (undated projectile) ?
I have a 1942 No 221 on it now which may be fine but I prefer
something more in line with the case date. I presume a 207 is harder to find that a 221.
It's available on a high priced site so I know it's likely quite over valued, but by how much ?

Although developed from the 199, the 221 was more used on smoke and star shells. The 207 clockwork would be more appropriate for your 3” 20 Cwt shell if it’s an HE. This fuze is pretty rough and it’s hard to see it being worth more than £50, whatever that is in $CDN. Personally I’d fit a 199 as they are a lot easier to get.
