It's essentially worthless, as TM aren't making parts for them and no aftermarket because cybergun owns the license - and its always the slide that breaks.

He may have paid more in the past but this rifle has been below £100 for over a year.

Could be worse

These were up for £28 plus p&p 😂. Once I informed the idiot you can get them new for £14 she decided to reduce them to still more than what they cost for a fresh bag. 

[Amokura]

Even if it were listed for less than £1, not touching it with that second storage bag...

Ridiculous prices like that are the reason I don't even bother with ebay anymore.

Looking at his other ads I think his MO is to want stupid money

I appreciate the seller may have been burned by other people but Christ alive, why project that bitterness on to prospective buyers?

"I don't have the time to list every single individual item"

 

Nor do you have the inclination to show pictures of what you're selling to justify the price or even specify if the quantity of BBs you're selling and if the bottles/bags are complete.

 

A lot of that stuff is worth that much brand new but only if you listed brand names...

With the new VFC AK out now, and GHK’s with iffy QC for a while, I think GHK owners who want out will have to take a bath.

I nearly bought it but there are zero mags available anywhere.  I am waiting till the second run due in Jan when all the minor kinks are ironed out.

His excuses don’t add up to me. sounds like the courier has lost two guns and he’s expecting PayPal to have helped him somehow…

 

I could sympathise with him not wanting to post the RIF after that experience… but PayPal have no control over the postal system and will always side with the buyer if the goods never arrive.

 

on the flip side, what he’s saying is - if it doesn’t arrive, he’s keeping the money and the the buyer is done for.
