I don't think you know what you're talking about with retail prices. looking today, retails goes for £185 (15% discount at the moment from the normal £200), 5 mags at £49.99 each (£249.95) so a total of £434.95, not including postage from retail.

 

Even the cheaper mags at £45 each brings it to £410, still not including shipping.

Exactly…you’re basically asking retail price for this when it’s a second hand product.

Jesus, have you even read what I wrote? It's already discounted, but not enough for you it seems.

The point he's making is it's secondhand, if someone buys it & should it go wrong 5 minutes in to a game, it can't be returned to the shop for repair or replacement.

Same goes for usage, anyone can say "never skirmished" etc, at the end of the day a secondhand buyer is taking all the risks, so expects to pay a price that reflects that.

For years the generally "agreed" framework for s/h pricing has been 65-75% of the current cheapest rrp.

So a ballpark figure for yours would be £287, clearly something you probably disagree with. 

End of the day your free to ask what you like, but don't be surprised  that people comment or you get a mention on Macks.

Didn't think pricing for this one would get this much attention. Probably should have done the price breakdown in hindsight.

 

I get the general 70% idea for pricing but I don't see it as gospel though and more of a guide as I have bought things from here before well above 70%. Depends what people are happy with and have the fund, not forcing or begging anyone of course.

 

Pricing wise, (based on when I bought it) was £200 for the gun and £50 for the mags. There seems to be discounts at the moment so it's lower, so I thought I'll mentioned it. It's priced to save money on shipping and one free mag compare to retail (The £45 mags is one of those preorder and wait indefinitely one).

 

Second hand risks wise, I understand it. I've bought things from here which I've returned and sold things which I've refunded (KSG). Appreciating that it's something you will have to take my word for but I value the importance of the feedback system. Any negative feedback from sales can affect any future interactions/sales and I do not want any negative.

 

If the sales doesn't work, and I really need the money then sure, lowering the price past 70% will be an option. I'm not expecting it has to be a quick sale, and happy to hang on to it. No loss to anyone.

Ooh, a whole £10 discount. Normal second hand pricing is 60-70% of the lowest price when buying new.
