The funniest part of the ad for me is the "willing to trade for VFC AK74M" ngl. Optimistic trade that.

You’ve missed out the accessories, the HPA taps are £9 each new, the hop unit iirc is about £50 new from overseas, the clutch precision set with postage is £130ish etc. Cheap scope and mount is still maybe £30/£40, spare outer barrel is another £25/£30… In total it’s just over £1K new. About £1080 I reckon at a guesstimate. Is he charging more than he should be? Probably, but at least he’s still charging less than retail - The same can’t be said for a lot of Mack submissions 😂

You didnt pm him though did you ?, instead you chose to essentially sabotage his thread, if a potential buyer is interested in his kit, they're free to negotiate the price via pm. You've just admitted you left "criticism" , that's not permitted, except in Macks, did I not make that clear enough, I even made sure it showed I'd edited your comment to avoid confusion, clearly wasted on you. Think im wrong, feel free to contact @Jedi_Master to confirm what's considered constructive input, & complain about feeling "violated" I'm sure it is overpriced, well actually no, ive no idea as ive never wanted one so haven't researched the going rate, but the fact still remains, the only place to critique any sales thread is here in Macks, no ifs, no buts, something some members dont seem to be able to grasp, so we remind them lol.

Whilst the way it was done was wrong, the guy selling is objectively charging too much. Aside from the pisstaking UK retailers, who are definitely not just dropshipping this, honest (DCA/Extreme) The gun + 6 extra mags can be had in the UK for about £740 brand new, or for those willing to import from Taiwan at worst case scenario, £580. These days, it looks like the latter is more likely to be the only option for those quantities, so this seller deems it suitable to jack up the price because of it. USD to GBP based of at time of typing average conversion of 0.74 GBP to 1 USD. Alu receiver WE SVD - https://kicbbgun.com.tw/en/pro_05_02.php?id=19870&category=184 - $292.38 USD = £216.14 WE SVD Magazine - https://kicbbgun.com.tw/en/pro_05_02.php?id=19868&category=307 - $ 48.12 USD = £35.57 Shipping for my last few orders of bigger parcels than this would ever be has been $60 USD with EMS = £44.36 So: Cost for the gun and mags shipped in GBP: 216.14 + (35.57 x 6) + 44.36 = £473.92 Customs charge of 20% taken against whole value inc shipping at point of import: £473.92 x 1.2 = £568.70 Add the Parcelfarce handling fee of £12, resulting total: £580.70. Or for UK, wait until Bespoke have the gun back in stock again, or will special order it for you: https://www.bespokeairsoft.co.uk/we-svd-gas-blowback-rifle-plastic-faux-wood £379.99 Plus Z1 to have the mags in stock https://www.zerooneairsoft.com/products/WE-GBB-Mag-for-SVD-20rds £60 £379.99 + (£59.99 x 6) = £739.93 (probably another £20 or so for shipping)

Hiya, I have send you a message -
Yeah sorry, definitely 24. Did double check both my AKs, neither of them have adapters like the Cyma's do. Very much appreciate the SRS adapter link, that is exactly what I was planning to make and somehow didn't come across it in my (admittedly quick) search -

Firstly you're exaggerating, by no means did I 'piss all over' his post. I left criticism that referred to other examples for sale at much lesser prices and told him where he can find them. I know this because I had been after a WE SVD for some time, and am now the owner of two of them. My most recent one came with a replica PSO scope, 5 mags, upgraded barrel and hop rubber, posted to me for the £360 asking price. This example had been sat for sale for a month. Perhaps now you can see what motivated me to leave what is inarguably valid criticism of the original £800 asking price of the example in question. I think it's pretty nuts that you have the ability to edit people's posts without their consent or even notifying them, making no mention of this in 'the rules' that you point to. Speaking of said rules, I reckon you should have a quick re-read of them. -Be constructive: 'If you have something to say, PM it to the seller' Yanno, instead of spending 10 years sniggering about people's posts in this thread without 90% of them knowing lol.

The RATech M4 (which for all intents and purposes contains most of the RATech catalogue for WE M4's in one unit, and has a forged 6061 aluminium receiver set, as opposed to the stock diecast Zamac receiver) in my guns list to the side cost £400 with 7 of the M4/MSK Pmags a little over 18 months ago, before the V3's were released. The retail on it when it was new would have been about £1500. WE V2's are essentially defunct and worthless now, so asking the same for a thing with some furniture on it with a single Stanag is a piss take.
-
I was going to post this ad but I'm not very familiar with what people would value WEs. Ive owned plenty and know that all M4s even new are not worth £400 without some major improvements (NPAS, steel parts, ect)

You pissed all over the guys sales post & told him, in your opinion, he's charging too much, the rules are clear, & your post definitely can be considered non constructive. Regarding editing your post, it was either delete it, or explain that the only place to critique sales posts is in Macks, i chose the latter, but something tells me you wouldn't be happy with either.
-
Upon request, I'm posting this here, less so because of the price and more because of the bizarre way this was dealt with. My post was neither off-topic nor 'significantly non-constructive'. Actually pretty weirded out by the fact that moderators can edit your own posts without your knowledge (only saw that my message had been edited when returning to the post), that seems like quite the violation as I'm sure most of you would agree. The seller only saw the edited message and was understandably confused. So what did I do wrong? Give fair criticism in a place where both the seller and a potential buyer can judge for themselves? You tell me.
-
Why, they're still around. (The one I miss is Classic Army) But there are many others now and overall quality has gone up with prices going down.
