      Have you made a complaint to paypal? You might get a bit of compensation for your troubles

      yeah i tried, they just said, if you dont get the item, dispute it so you dont loose any money .... what about the seller though!!

  3. Would you believe it, only 3 hours after paying a Royal Mail blackmail/handling fee, another parcel has finally started moving again after 2 weeks in limbo … what the bets on another blackmail/handling fee??

  4. Anyone else notice a new trend with none UK eBay sellers giving useless/made up post tracking numbers >.

      Sorry, that was more for TeddyBoy as I know some of the HK sites are useless. If it's not working on the Royal Mail site then it isn't a valid tracking code or they used online postage but dropped it in a letter box and not at a post office (still gives you a tracking ID but it won't be tracked as it needs to be scanned first and this isn't done at a depot unless it's been done at the office).

      I bought a foregrip from Honkers recently and was amazed that the tracking number worked and able to go to my Royal Mail sorting office and see which postwoman had delivered it to my house and who had signed for it.

      The tracking numbers are universal and should - in theory - work everywhere. The problem is money of course - only the more pricey companies get tracked in the UK too (EMS Speedpost do for example) and lots of the foreign companies give the number wrong or something. It'll only show in the UK database once it's landed at Coventry or Heathrow though usually.

  5. I may have to by another jack sooner then I thought :D

      sp00n

      there will be ways to power it down, such as power down shells etc

       

      or like i did with my webbly, using a refillable co2 cartridge, then a co2 recharger.

  10. Anyone know where I can get a pdi 6.03 430mm inner barrel from in the UK?

      I should be receiving my new donor body today in via PF for my Jack :o) but not building it until i've done some barrel testing and until my new IGL and longer wire harness arrive. one major thing i've learnt from my SMP is to test test test before stripping everything out. with barrel testing as an AEG i will notice if there's any difference when firing it as a HPA system.

    4. sp00n

      sp00n

      Spot on, though I do need to give the barrel a clean (forgot to clean it before assembling it)

      dunno if it was TWG vs GF I'd say TWG wins by 1 day usually.

      TheFull9

      Given NYCs rules on firearms, I'd imagine their rules on airsoft are very restrictive.

  21. and now everywhere that had a TM vsr g-spec in-stock is now sold out :(

      @sp00n - to get the best effect from your AC unit, turn it on full and go sit next to your electric meter. The breeze from the meter whizzing round will keep you cooler than the AC unit.

      i actually have a 3.2Kw solar panel setup .... ;)

      I go for the cheapest UK retailer out of the pool I use normally. Last time I looked at buying from HK it was barely cheaper if at all, with the aggro of customs etc
