"tooo much to mention".  Yeah, tooooo much to pay. Especially for a TM that might be shredding its internals.

 

I generally feel a bit sad for folk trying to flog all their gear, but this bloke isn't even trying, and I rather suspect that actual "sensible offers" will be met with an "I know what this is worth all day long, mate."

It always makes me chuckle when sellers feel they have go give a reason for selling an item

Must be their guilty conscience niggling at them

Cant just say “It’s Fuckered” so I’m passing it on ?

[Adolf Hamster]

Tbf, the condition doesnt look too bad.

 

Looks like a typical case of not realising airsoft depretiation rates.

If that's actually a "factory standard" CYMA then it's likely to be over 1.3J and a Section 5 hazard.  Cheeky sods, wanting another £35 to make it UK legal (Statute legal, let alone site legal).

Exactly , one of the biggest piss takes I find by British retailers is the way so many of them charge us the customer ex amount extra on top of everything else their charging to stop them the retailer selling a gun that’s unfit for purpose in the UK ! ? like seriously WTF ??‍♂️

[Cannonfodder]

Considering a cyma 0.28 can be picked up for around £100 he's definitely taking the piss. 

 

As for a transferable warranty, my only question is wtf have they been smoking? 

[Speedbird_666]

£320 for a gun that only cost £260 a couple of months ago from Fire Support.

But have you seen the list of accessories you get with it? 

 

Scope stock touch pack handdel

[RostokMcSpoons]

To be fair you normally have to pay quite a bit extra at the massage parlour for a "touch pack handdel", but is this the time and the place for it???

[Cannonfodder]

Maybe this is what he means by stock touch handdel?

(also, these guns are [seller admittedly] naughty powered)

this guy got multiple items up, and has this at the bottom of each listing;

"If requesting to pay via paypal instead of bank transfer, please use friends and family. Goods and services takes too much of a percentage and the sale of rifs is not covered under their terms and conditions!"

 

I had a quick scan of Paypal's T&Cs, buyer protection programme, and some other bits
Could not find anything that even mentioned RIFs, air-powered weapons / sporting goods... no mention of

Is this scammer/dodgy alert?
or is there some truth in this?

I’ve definitely seen that people have had issues because PayPal don’t support transactions involving firearms, but I think if you can prove if it’s airsoft then it’ll be grand!

However, I’ve never had any problems personally with it.

Paypal quietly removed their objections to RIFS several years ago. I’ve made three claims for RIFS, and several claims for parts including some real steel ones with zero issues.
