I've given my 2p so I'll leave it at that.

 

As per previous advice i've googled it and the average opinion is 2c (USD) which at the current exchange rate is 1.5p.

 

Now we're all gonna rip into you for charging 33% above fair market price!

If you get butt hurt when people call you out for ripping others off then you should really give your head a wobble and have a condor moment to contemplate why you are getting called out. This forum is great as people who do know better help those who don’t. 
 

If you are here to make a quick buck of other people who enjoy the same hobby then stick that hpa 50 rpm beast up your arse and let rip.

You don't need warranty when it's fully upgraded though. 😏

 

(Shame he wants such a stupid amount for it, as i'm after another one.)

Definitely,  but if people are going to comment directly on a thread, it needs to be polite, & ideally informative with a retailer link to the item.

Unfortunately what some of the older members used to consider "banter", now has serious connotations irl, which of course the snowflakes are all over it.

Describing someone as a nonce is unacceptable, unless they are shown to be one.  One does not have to be a snowflake to object to such “banter”.

Agree, I don't condone such terms within the parameters of "banter", it's connotations far outweigh any possible attempt at humour.

I could have deleted it, or issued a warning, but I think there's more benefit in other members correcting the person who bandied it about than me policing every hurty word, there's only so many hours in the day lol.

Plus, my comment you've just quoted wasn't in reference to the N word, but rather the comments on the guys actual sales threads.

Wait... has something gone straight over my head? 

 

Genuinely thought people used nonce as the most exaggerated, blasé, broad insult for anything that's remotely strange or aggravating regardless of it's actual meaning.

 

Must just be a local or generational thing. 

 

Apologies if that's ruffled some feathers with the guys in here, not the intention.

In light of recent posts and announcements from the mods - i feel like they should fully support bullying for this one

Give me your money so I can try to make my own money off of your money

 

It’s almost as bad as the guy who set up a GoFundMe for people to donate to him so that he could set up an Airsoft shop 😂

[GiantKiwi]

Oh, he's posted it again further inflating the price.

 

It's a V2 WE GBB which is now end of life, you can buy the V3 Scar H with 3 extra mags brand new for around £420 after shipping and import charges are taken into account from KIC.

 

Has 'semi locked' it because its running at 420fps, but also claims it has a RATech Aluminium NPAS nozzle in it - so I wouldn't trust it to be actually semi locked if he can't even figure out how to twiddle a screw to reduce said fps.

 

Aluminium Nozzle and the TNT hop unit only belong in one place anyway, the bin, as they're significantly worse than the original parts, so they do not add value at all.

 

He's also irreperably damaged the bolt to make the charging handle non-reciprocating, as it is not possible to make that reversible.

 

So, even if you discount the things he will let you option out, he's asking for an £100 premium over new for a fucked Scar H.

You're not wrong.  In the 80s I remember it as describing someone who dressed in bright garish shell suits.

Maybe another example of words changing meaning over time.

A nonce is a sex offender, typically a pedophile.

 

It's an acronym for not on normal courtyard exercise, ie a prisoner who can't be allowed in the open with other prisoners for their own safety.

 

So yeah, a little excessive for someone who's overcharging for airsoft guns. 😂

FFS. The last thing airsoft needs is another insufferable twat with an over inflated ego and a camera.

Well get a fucking job then like the rest of us. Why should anyone else give him £500 towards his own hobby. Get fucked.

 

At just 19 years old he's decided he doesn't want to work, he wants to solely persue his hobby and thinks everyone else should pay for it.

Fooly upgrayedded though, and 79 happy purchasers.  Some people do value the narrative.

The older I get, the more I understand why older people in my youth were so irritable.

 

Does this kid have no concept of humility?

 

I'm curious why he needs a GoPro or a Scope Cam. Granted, the image quality is better with them but he can find himself a generic action cam (and a suitable mount) for a small fraction of the price that will give him a much larger fraction of the video and sound quality. If he was good or prolific enough for a donation or sponsorship of a GoPro, he wouldn't need to set up a Just Giving page to mooch for one.

 

He strikes me as the choosing beggar who would spit in the face of someone offering him a free Happy Meal because he wanted a fillet mignon.

Same here. I frequently have to cover myself in Canesten because i'm such an irritable cunt.

 

He's just another youngster, with no humility or concept of the real world, that thinks he should get money just for being him and doing what he wants to do.

Well he's not planning on paying for it himself, so why get a cheap one?

I was going to donate £0.01 and leave a comment, but the minimum donation is £2.00.

I wanted to message him and tell him he's a piece of shit scrounger and he should get a fucking job like everyone else to pay for his own stuff.

I wonder if the guys at UCAP know this parasite is using their name and company logo to push his begging

Not like he has form for selling knackered shite, one of the GHK AKs he sold previously didn't even have the hop ramp screwed down cos he's a fucktard he doesn't know the platform and its quirks let alone how to upgrade one.  Yet I am the bad guy when I point this out and am being sarcastic.  Guy is a full on bellend. 

 

EDIT: I thought that this was Leez again...carry on ...though I stand by my bellend comment
