Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread

I thought you couldn't return IFs because the shop voids the manufacturer's warranty by painting it? Not that I'm defending this guy.

That is a fair point, although a lot of the stuff that BBgunz4nedz flog seems to come with stock gelcoat plastic parts, not painted over.

If it's been charged for as a customisation service, then you can't return, but if it's a stock item, I can't see any problem with it.

A quick google search has bbguns4less selling them for £189:99 and in stock

Yep, it wasn't a lucky guess ? and don't forget the 7% discount if you leave it in the basket for 24hrs.

That makes it £176

 

[Encore]

Vector = £460

Mags - £90

Total £550

All from extreme airsoft. At 70% you're looking a £385 second hand and that's not taking into account the two tone nature.

£420 wanted for a two tone vector (AEG) with 3 extra mags and the most egregious thing? Use of comic sans font family for the typeset. 

Can't help but wonder if the price was chosen simply not by logic but for the '420 blaze it' meme, font choice supports my case, and the final bit of evidence? The two tone colour is clearly marijuana green.

The prosecution rests it case.

I tried this recently just out of interest and didn't get the super secret offer.

Possibly it's only for new accounts, although it's not rocket surgery to obtain a new email address.

I still haven’t got past the fact someone dropped that many beer tokens on a pissing two-tone !?

It is baffling. I can actually understand (if not agree with) dropping that much on a rare RIF, even if it's a wall hanger. But on an obvious toy that will shoot much the same as CYMA AK, no, I don't get it.

Im surprised the shop two toned it. I know the customer is always right etc (never in my retail experience but thats another thread) and if someone wants to pay for it then they will supply it, but if I were a retailer I wouldnt be able to bring myself to two tone a vector.

There was a 2-tone GHK and MWS on here recently.

There is a two tone marushin 8mm M1 on used Airsoft at the moment. It breaks my heart.

damn

as a note for any new players- we get that 2-tone is a necessary evil and most of the time nobody is gonna judge you for it.

unless you do it to something nice then all bets are off.

There was a full wood kited L1A1 for sale a while back that had been two-toned . 
just let that sink in , the player had paid extra to have the wood kit fitted THEN had paid even more to get the same wooden kit painted puke green !

You can't fix stupid but with enough duct tape you can at least keep it away from a keyboard.

It's a 20 year old gun design with a plastic body. TM armalites were always a let down.

Bloody hell. That read like one of those scam e mails from a Nigerian prince.

Bargain, malfunctioning WE Glock, two leaky mags, for about the same price you can buy a brand new one ??

To be grudgingly fair, he does claim that the mags are OK and it's just the gun itself that's defective, and has included fees and postage, which is always nice.

To be more fair though, you can get a new, warrantied Army Armament R17 and a 2nd mag delivered to your door for less than that.

who wants To be fair? ??

 

[Druid799]

Another chancer trying to slip a rip off in amongst some other fair prices ? 
asking 250 for a 170 gun because it’s got some unknown scope and rail on it ?

I think not .?

if you're meaning the bizon then that looks like an amazon special red dot on your generic ak siderail.

something like this:
