Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread

Ex-two tone, removed it with sandpaper or something too solventy?  Or that could be the "dirty" part.  How would you know, those are the only pictures he's chosen to provide.

Probably not practical, but how funny (and useful) would it be to automatically link to the lowest priced retailer selling each item?  It might wake some sellers up from their delusional dreams.

 
£350 base gun, £16 spring guide, £10 spring = £376
Knackered magazine -£16
Total = £360

Asking price is £325 - that is bonkers.
Only ten percent off retail for a used gun with no back up or warranty ?
Nope, nope and thrice nope.

I nearly added this but I think people just think if I have a gun I've used once or twice it's still worth loads... Saying that I saw one for sale with 3 mags for £285... Tempting

Edit: he says it has a warranty

Cars lose as much as 25% once you drive them off the car lot when bought from new, is there any rule of thumb for Airsoft guns?

I paid £350 for mine, but was the SMG version, more used but I got a charger, 2 Lipo batteries, 6 mid caps, a Hi Cap, a torch, a red dot scope a sling, tracer unit, an Evo Carry bag, a bottle of tracer BBs and other bits and bobs and free home delivery ?

It may be still in warranty, but that depends on

A) if it's transferrable

And 

B) if they would honour it as it's been altered

So, unlikely it has any warranty.

For a saving so small, why wouldn't you buy new?

You could probably wangle a deal with a retailer to reduce the price gap even further...

 
Would appear we have another player thinking he can get ALL (plus a bit extra) his money back ?

Same gun on TG (where I think this came from in the first place !) is now £130 but was £185 , even at the original price and with the ‘extras’ being offered don’t think you’d hit the current asking price ! ?‍♂️

They messaged me earlier about it. Soon as I saw the price I noped the fuck out of there. £275 is way too much for this gun, plus I'm more a fan of the classic look with real wood furniture. 

A CYMA was being sold on here earlier this year. The exact one I wanted, plus at my local site, for like £100-something. Wish I had the cash at the time.. Damn shame. 

 
That's pretty much for 2 guns, plus mags and 3 batteries. I think that's an ok price

Never mind the batts being FUBAR’ed (which by the looks they are as there blown) just clocked how much he’s asking for it !

Its a P90 , it’s not a recoil it’s just a TM P90 with some crappy viper pouches a couple of low caps , couple of mids and a hi and a VERY vague up-grade history . ?‍♂️

£105 from this seller  - including postage!!!!

Or brand new from here for the same price + post.
https://www.fire-support.co.uk/product/gp-military-type-m203-grenade-launcher-long

So for less than a tenner more, you get brand new....

Seems fair to me , He can hope ? ?

????

 
Haven't seen these around for ages, seem to remember they were cheap as chips way back, am I missing something ?

 
On a slightly different tangent, but still dreamers none the less. Something that as a seller really fucks me off big time:

People messaging me with stuff like "wats the lowest ull go?"

That is not how haggling or bartering works - you make me an offer, you dont ask me to name my lowest price. I think Im already offering things for a reasonable price, Im not going to suddenly say "oh go on then mate, you can have it for a fiver."

Generally anyone who messages me this I assume theyre either not a serious buyer, or simply going to make a ridiculous lowball offer.

 
Is the the new definition of "New"?

If so I have loads of "new" stuff I bought, tried, and then put in the cupbaord for years ?

Is that the crappy ASG one? If so they aren't even worth the petrol I'd use to burn it

 
Nah, these were out way before ASG existed, but probably as equally crap.

To be fair, most brands in that price range were moody, all need tinkering & tweaking to do what their supposed to, but this one appears to have none of those, hence the derision lol.
