Macks airsoft dreamers of the week thread

[E21A]

Was literally just about to post about the ssg24 for almost DOUBLE the cost of buying direct 

[kasaran]

jedi is in there warning about his use of stock imagery, so may not be there long

[Tackle]

 

Yeah I know it's almost old news, but what a pisstaker  

[Rogerborg]

It's not so much a problem with stock imagery, it's that he's asking for money now in return for something that he doesn't have and which may not even exist.

 

That's the kind of shenanigans that gets marketplaces a bad name, and if it were up to me, I'd delete the ad, ban him, block his IP, and shag his sister for good measure.  Then send him pictures.

Totally agree with this. 
Advertising stuff you haven't even got is a big no no in my book.
And as @Rogerborg says, is the sort of stuff that could get the new classifieds section a bad name.
I think it reasonable to delete the ad and then tell him he can re-advertise when he actually has the RIF and can post actual pics of it..... If he's above board, I can't see him having a problem with that at all.

Not so much a dreamer but I'm almost certain this is @Hellfish old AK which he traded.

The photos are definitely the ones from his advert before, I hope this is the guy he traded it with?

 

[Guest Pfc.Macdonald.J]

I don't understand...

[lemon191]

It means the seller has run out of stock but doesn't want to relist the item so bumps up the price to stop people buying it.

Someone already reported the use of stock/retail images as it's against the rules to not use your own.

Yeah I figured someone would, lot of backseat moderators on here. 🤗

 

[proffrink]

Hitting the 'report' button isn't backseat moderating lmao.

Which, IMHO, is a good thing, helps stop the scammers & dreamers slipping through the net, don't want to end up like zin was a few years ago, members getting turned over left right & centre.

Seems on the expensive side as it’s about £400 worth new. 

[E21A]

Comes with 1 for £210 and another 4 new is £140!

You literally just posted that it was worth £400 new!? Or did you mean including mags?

So £330 seems reasonable then.....?

 

Sorry I am not sure what you're getting at but seems alright to me.

That it seems expensive considering you can get all the stuff new for about £70 more

[Wo1f]

I bought one with 4 mags for 200 so I’d say a little expensive. I got a good deal though. I’d say £275.

 

easiest way of judging if it’s too expensive is by looking how long it’s been for sale.. if it’s not gone in a month then it’s obviously too expensive 

[Duff]

Got a goodun I think....

 

 

£40 more than retail Robert? I man sure it has 2 extra leak free mags but the tracer unit comes with as standard at RPP £179.99 with the mags being just over £25 a pop, you're basically saving a tenner by not buying brand spanking new.

 

Sorrry love you really @Robert James 🤗

Well stuff sells for 65% of RRP generally so yeah it's priced reasonably. Unlike this mook!! 😀

[proffrink]

I think it's getting to that point where we just name this thread 'Mack's marginally overpriced AFUK classifieds of the day'.

The tracer doesnt come with the pistol. The pistol comes with a silencer, the tracer is an ace tech which retails at £70. The adapter for it is £15 new, so, all together it comes to give or take £333 brand new. This has only been used about 3 times. I don’t think £220 is a bad price.
