I once went to a safari park and there was a rhino pissing. 

We did another lap and the rhino was still pissing.

True story. 

This is more piss taking than that rhino.

He's back again.

 

Bad sport! He's not even telling us how many entries there are so we can't estimate a margin, assuming that there actually is a prize draw. I bet he'd have to sell at least 40 or 50 tickets to be able to turn a profit.

Im pretty sure that to run any kind of lottery you have to be registered with the lotteries commission! If hes not then he might run it in good faith but you would never know!

People give you money in the expectation of not being sent anything in return. What could possibly go wrong?

 For £3 more you could get a new gun and holster that has the advantages of actually working and not coming in a minging neon green

Why do I get the impression he played once and discovered the reality of playing isn't like the edited YouTube videos he watched?

 

Overpriced two-tone AEG with accessories up for sale too. "Only been used once" but it's awash with scuffs and scratches.

He also has a rifle up, that states used once but looks pretty well worn.

I saw that but decided to just post about the pistol as that looks like a bigger piss take 

[Skullchewer]

Got to go for the rhino.

£250 preowned, or £165 brand new and an extra £40 for the drum mag

https://www.usedairsoft.co.uk/rif-s/electric-powered/m1a1-full-metal-thompson_i60427

 

At that price point, I think I'd rather buy this... thing

I think i'd struggle to spend that much on that kit new from a shop

The itemised bill lists the two-tone fee - am I paying a discount on that?

 

How long have the bio BBs been hanging about for and in what conditions?

The cheapest, toyish plastic CYMA + a bunch of free gifts.

 

Might as well be titled "Buyer's Regret Starter Pack".

He realised 350 for a used and abused GE was bonkers after he was made fun of in another channel, it dropped to 250 since.😂
The WE Glock just below it is still 200, but this was just funny.

To be slightly fair, those ergo rails do add a bit of value to the package. One of those things that just as expensive for a replica than a real one.

Shame it's on wonky...

Yeah, you need to be quite handy with a dremel to get them to sit properly (reference half way down the page)

If you can find someone who wants them and values them.  The more you fUlLy CuStOmIsE a gun, the smaller you're making your market.

Case in point with the heavily customised/modded Hi-Capas you see listed at £700 (for argument's sake) compared to £1,200 spent on the gun (funny that you're sold the gun whose parts have mostly/all been replaced!) and parts. If they had a bigger market, the seller wouldn't lose as much money.

[Dan Robinson]

A £700 HiCapa?   What lunacy is this of which you speak?
