This did make me giggle. Not sure what he is thinking? I put in a "cheeky" offer of £5 plus postage (£8.45 total) but eventually got him to decline then I bought a new one for £10.45 delivered.

I think it would be funny if we all put in offers at increasingly lower values and see if he gives in.

I wouldn't be surprised if that resulted in a forum ban for all involved. -_-

I'm sure it's a lovely pistol - absolutely moistening nice, but I'd never ever spend that much on a pistol.

 

It's the sort of collectible thing that @Marc.RG1 would like though?

 

This is the other one I saw today

 

it's not so much the price, which I'd say was reasonable, but it's this line:

Great fun, used for target shooting and skirmished once, very reliable.

 

Reliability cannot be gauged from a bit of plinking and one game?

You can only really say it's reliable if it's got through 8 or so games with no issues, surely?

Especially given how fickle these G5s can be.

Didn't @sonofsammo have his break after one game?

@L3wisD yeah it's nice mate and I'm sure fun to shoot, but no more fun then say the 1911 you see in my avatar, but yeah I would definitely not pay that kind of cash outright for a airsoft or airgun either, I'd rather go shoot the real thing lol..

Even my custom built guns did not cost that though, my limcat custom for example I think is hitting around £430 ish but that has been build in stages over time, around 1 year, so the money is spread out. And that price includes the TM hi-capa donar.

I saw that, even if its worth 1k. Nobody is going to pay that.

Looked it up, if you include postage VAT etc, might run to over £1200, but I wouldn't want to pay anywhere near that for a pistol.

Yeah they will.

Stuff like this is usually easier to sell than the cheaper end of the market. Probably not on here though.

 

Unless your being sarcastic, i would probably agree in some ways.

 

£1200 RRP now £700 is probably a good deal in the right neck of the woods. For me im more in the £150 RRP now down to £50 kind of range... -_-

 

love this thread by the way, often my highlights when browsing are here, as everyone is saying what im thinking :)

No sarcasm there is a big market for high end stuff amongst the collectors and milsimmers. No offence to this site but I never even consider selling stuff through here.

Yes, yes it did. Not one skirmish. One game. That's fewer than 5 mags through it and about 45 minutes play time.....
Reliable and G5 do not belong in the same sentence, unless it's a sentence which decries their reliability....

Well more interestingly that that it’s priced above the price to order it direct. Configure the same thing, it’s less than that in euros delivered...

 

Nov looks like he has a sale on at the mo. The guns are months away when ordered and there’s no telling how far his one is away.

 

hes living in a dream world. He needs to get taking that red pill and join the rest of us...

I didn't realise we could sell things we didn't own! Why didn't I think of that sooner!?

 

Coming up!

 

One Tokyo Marui 416 DevGru.

Not received from the shop yet.

Will order it once you pay me. Can't get newer than that!

 

£840.
