Being scammed?

I feel for you though, particularly since the whole "guns" thing make it very easy for people to be taken advantage of, the number of people that don't realise how 'not small' airsoft is, and how many retailers there are is huge.
The reason I bought from him was that I wanted to buy local, I had looked at other sites but didn't realise just how many there were.
I initially contacted him because I was going to buy a gun 2nd hand off another guy and the gun owner had put it into the shop to get it apraised before selling it. He told me that it was pretty much scrap then offered me a agm m14, which I didn't want. I initially wanted the g+p m14 but he said it was crap and he didn't sell it. I told him I would go for the cyma instead because I had looked up the agm and it didn't get a very good reputation. He said he couldn't get the standard cyma m14. So I then asked about the m14 ebr, then seen the dmr stock version which I settled on (he basically just sent me a link to iwholesales). I just feel stupid and regret not just going else where and buying the g+p that I initially wanted. For what it's worth I'm enjoying the cyma, but something just keeps niggling at the back of my head about it.

Pleas at least tell us the name of the shop, I and one of my close mates work shifts only getting 2 weekend off in 5, so to get our airsoft fix we visit brick and mortar shops (sad I know but it's better than chairsofting and gets us out of our respective houses), I really don't want to fall foul of this clown!

If anyone wants to know the name send me a wee pm and I'll let you know. Not comfortable putting it public right now.

You do realise iwholesales = onlybbguns with the £144 gun

Both same place in Slough me thinks

No worries, would be nice if he gets you another mag or two at least but we all learn the hard way

Reason why this place is so great, lots of advice from many more savvy guys than me plus as we are not tide to any place we can open give good feedback on retailers & deals without say Zero One edit/deleting our posts to rival retailers etc....

Never mind - think of this like a JBBG initiation test you have to experience - most of us have screwed up on our first investment or two...

Welcome to the club you could say
