“Basically brand new” and “used 3 times”… not really brand new then is it? Do people still want Tippmanns given parts are next to unavailable when something inevitably goes wrong with it?

That's what I suspected. Didn't Tippmann go under a few years ago? Meaning it's at least that old and if only used 3 times then it's been sat gathering dust so I'd be wondering what condition the o rings are in.

If parts weren't as rare as a politician with honest intentions it would be quite a good deal

I remember these coming out when I started playing over 12 years ago, so they are a fairly dated design and one of the first HPA out the box set ups. 

It definitely isn't brand-new if used 3 times, more lightly used like new. 

Also forgot to add why not post more images of everything like the eotech all we see is a box and no actual pictures of the sight so we don't know the condition of that or if the optics are starting to delaminate.

There’s been a few people trying to reproduce the important parts etc but ultimately no idea if that ever came to fruition. Tippmanns seem to sit around for a while now as GBBR’s are reliable and Daytona kits are “more viable” so the selling point of a tippmann being an Aeg with recoil is gone. Tippmanns also seem to be relatively easy to break due to the nature of them. Overall they’re a hot mess that warrants avoiding unless you have more money than sense 😂

Seller admits he was fleeced by the previous seller but other than the trigger box problems, he hasn't disclosed the "missing or incorrect" parts (other than the missing flash hider) so how can we know it's worth £200 as a boneyard item, GBBR or not?

£50 to fix a gun, i'd buy it on the spot had I not just spent a boat load of money fixing my computer and reserved other things.

 
Asking £55 when it’s £45 brand new (Although some places have it listed at £55, either way, LMAO)

I don't know if it was listed here too but it was mentioned on Used Airsoft within the last couple of pages. 

 
Babies are almost impossible to upgrade though. And they hate the HPA hose being attached,
