Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread

Why do people spend all this time, money and effort into building a custom rif then expect to get paid what they value it at? Why build it for you then sell it to someone else?


WE glocks go for about £80 off the top of my head now...(I've got one I'm tempted to shift so been looking at what I should ask for it)

OP got ripped off with that stippled lower, looks like one I did at home!

Oooohh ! That’s nasty ? 

would you admit to doing that at home ? I think not ! ?

Unfortunately this chap has fallen foul like so many others , just because you spend X amount ‘up-grading’ your NOT getting it back ! 

There like Pavlov’s dog and it’ll keep on repeating as long as there’s sales ! ?‍♂️

I think i just did! ill stick my Glock up on the classifieds later this week and go with a price of £400 as it was stippled by me and not factory done so surely that makes it more expensive...

it is starting at 99p though!

If I won it at that could easily sell the mags at a few quid each and make a profit.
6quid P&P !

AND someone has bid on it so you could end up in a bidding war ! ?‍♂️???

Given everything else in it, I assumed that the mags would have the springs removed and be full of either fire ants, or the restless spirits of deceased P90 owners.

Lady’s and gentlemen I think I may have found the ultimate “may as well close the thread not gonna top this” sale on ebay .

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Job-Lot-Airsoft-parts-kit-equipment-accessories-spares/223133283042?hash=item33f3c7b2e2:g:9koAAOSwy6lbkQvE

all one can say is “WoW ! And take my money now !”

?
cheers Tony, I've actually got that on my watch list (I shit you not), merely cos I wanted another one of those thermold mags to add to some my lad already has, but now you've outed it the price will go silly as peeps clamour for all that high quality kit lol......the rest of it is destined for the bin

Yoooouuuuuurrrr welcome! ?

but as the Borg said judging by everything else’s condition I wouldn’t hold my breath on it working ! ?‍♂️

 
Aaahh but problem here (apart from the ‘hopeful price’?) looks like most of its at least functioning , the sale on fleabay was all busted shit from the rubbish bin ! ?‍♂️

??

 
£150 for two daysacks which might have some interesting stuff in them

Am I missing something here? Is TAC worth their asking price?

That and the abundance of RS parts... Yes, yes it is. Not sure they should have listed as £1500 + paypal fees though maybe £1500 all in.

Yeah PayPal fees struck me as piss take a bit.




I sold mine recently for £1200 which also had a genuine peli case and a load of other accessories but I wanted to shift it quick and it went, probably could have got more in hindsight but that's not an unreasonable amount to be asking for the platform although the market for them has gone down somewhat over the past year or so (More so since next gen recoil platforms have been about)

 
That's an insane amount of money to spend on a RIF. You could kit out a newbie group of 5 from head to toe including entry level RIFs for that. Sorta money. 

Very intrigued to shoot something valued that high to see if it's a dream to shoot or a nightmare on your bank balance.

You say that but at the time I had the money to spend on that, being my only hobby its more of an investment in my eyes. Goes back to the whole geardo argument - why spend £200 on a pair of trousers... because I can and want too. The new system on the market the GBLS is £1500 starting with one mag and I know of maybe 5 or so people I play with that bought them as soon as they landed the gen 2 batch.

Personally speaking my systema was the best gun I've ever shot, when I say it shot laser straight that isn't your usual airsoft exaggeration (ask any systema owner)
