Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread

Not so much a 'this is overpriced' as it is a 'it might be overpriced'... given how descriptive 'Fully upgraded internals done by a proper technician' but with no actual detail that means it's hard to tell.

As is customary a word of advice for the seller, try listing what 'fully upgraded' actually means. Because as it stands you're looking to charge £80 more than one could be picked up brand new and entirely unfucked with, and there isn't much detail to justify why someone might do that.

absolutely this.

anyone who gets paid to fix airsoft gnu's calls themselves an airsoft tech, regardless of their qualifications. if you're going to insist that their work adds value then you need to name drop so their reputation can do it for them. otherwise a buyer must only assume that the work was done by billybob who took up airsoft teching after failing his degree in surfing and has only been doing it for a month.

and fully upgraded is a meaningless term, has it had literally every part replaced? has everything that could improve performance been done? the answer is no, because nobody replaces every single part and performance is such a wide term that to optimize a build in one aspect precludes optimization elsewhere.

i am sure it is but google search shows 3rd or 4th from the top £129.99 for the gun. 20 each the mags and nuprol holsters range from 15 to 25 depending where you go.

Don’t get your point

if it’s 190 you are saving £20 over retail buying second hand for a WE that is £110 at my local store (and on google). Even with the extras I don’t understand why you are justifying the price.

Just saying why the op could think it's reasonable. And that pistol prices vary wildly in the UK.
