Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread

Offering for sale, rather than selling. It's telling that PatrolBase are out of stock at £95, and you have to go to £130 or so before you find any in stock.

I was saying earlier it's surprising that UK retailers haven't punted prices to the moon, but actually some have.  They must be like dragons, preferring to sit on their hoard to bear to part with any of it. :D

Can't get a TM 5.1 hi capa for anything other than stupid money people need to stop recommending them I am not paying over £300 for a pair of stainless 5.1s

 
Now, I'd never make fun of anything that anyone buys, considering my completely pish loadout which consists of a mighty Unreal Tournament 2004 Redeemer-esque slayer of a UAR, an awe-inducing plastic fantastic Lancer Tactical M4 and an utter death machine of a 20 quid Chinesium 1911 springer. Add in some thoroughly geeky and naff fake sci fi foam armour, and I'm less Master Chief, more Disaster Chief.

However... before purchasing my awesomely unimpressive gear I did my research thoroughly, so knew what to expect and made my choices deliberately within my budget. And I'm happy with my choices.

Quite amazing how many folk jump into things, not just airsoft, blindly spaffing wads of dough like Rishi Sunak on a bender without having the faintest scooby doo about what their riches are going towards. Their choice I suppose.

Wow, new or used? Not a hi capa fan but thats mental money. Think Airsofts going to resemble Mad Max soon, folk turning up at skirms bartering over gnus and having duels to decide who gets what ?

New Generally don't buy used pistols. I want to used them as bases for para ordances as they are double stacks.

It’s the same model, but as you can see, it’s discontinued and renowned for being an extremely accurate copy.

I need to know what it’s actually worth lol, I know it’s not £1500

Tbh, even with all the mags, no more than £600ish ?

 
I think he must be on this forum , it’s dropped to 900 now ! ??

 Mate of mine selling it, chancing his arm as the gun has a lot of sentiment for him

Clearly he really doesn't want to sell it, it's not one of those "the wife says it's got to go so it's priced accordingly" is it ? ?

No, a good friend of his left it to him when he died, doesn’t want to sell it but needs the cash

I've done well out of the second hand market over the years and they have done well by me. It's a symbiosis that works. I can honestly say that I have never purchased new.

Been gifted new but that's a different matter.
