I have a WE Gen 5 G17 with a few upgrades and accessories but I'd only ask £175 at most for it. He's smoking something good

TM Gen 5s having dubious availability because of Gaston Glock himself putting his fucking nose in places means they can charge whatever they want for it really, unfortunately - the Gen 5 TM is a bloody good pistol and is the only way to get TM's new glock system for the time being, so while £500 is stupid and has a euromillions chance of selling I can see one moving for like £300 to the right person, honestly

 
another one ?

asking £400 for something that’s worth about £250 second hand (optimistically).

I get there’s rumours that TM won’t be producing any more. But it seems like very soulless profiteering.

 
"These things are like rocking horse shit, unobtainium, hens teeth."

In fact, so incredibly rare that there's currently two for sale in the classifieds.

"Don't think TM will be making anymore either by the sounds of it. Not any time soon anyway! So price reflects the demand."

Well that's nice. Good to see nice honest people taking not advantage. Oh wait, no, shitbags are everywhere.

"Don't message me moaning about the price."

You won't get messaged, at all probably. But you will get ripped in here.

There’s a rumour going around that TM have unblocked the legal/production/rumoured issue that is preventing them from producing more gen5s.
 

I personally think people have heard that rumour and are trying to cash in their chips against naive people…

personally I’d ban people doing that sort of unethical profiteering. But it’s not my circus.

 
Wouldn't say i'm a shitbag.. All of my sales on here have been reasonable and fair. Always respectful and helpful where i can be. Sorry my price is higher than you'd like. But there's always going to be supply and demand resale. Anyway, ya moaning bastards. Price redacted. Not trying to be blasted on here as a scumbag thanks though ?

 
Eventually someone was going to get triggered ?

He’s been a spoil sport and dropped the price by £100 ?

Semi or auto? ? Don't get triggered dude. It's only Monday. Unfortunately it's just the way supply and demand resale works brother (don't look into sneakers, you'll have an aneurysm) Yeah i was probably being a bit shady with my first price. Still, closer than your offer before you decided to come blast me on here. Sorry i never took your offer pal. No need to then attack me and laugh about it like you didn't just try to buy it.. ?

But i will agree that £500 is a total piss take though..

credit where credit is due- £300 isn’t a mental price given what you’re offering in one package ?? also, the FI trigger is pretty mint.

Where do I start? Maybe with they're rare because they were discontinued as they didn't sell well due to being crap and unreliable so good luck to anyone who wants spare parts or extra magazines.

Or maybe that they were £100 new.

Oh and they never had a bolt hold open so the crap repair makes no difference

I'll just leave this here for the next time it's advertised. so I can simply copy & paste.

& I thought I was being constructive with my feedback.

Ok, lets try another direction...

Your cases are crap & apparently no one wants them, you're trying to sell boneyard rif's for too much (based on them not selling multiple times), by all means set the asking price at whatever you think is reasonable but don't be surprised if they're still in your bedroom this time next year.
