Not sure if the extras and upgrades warrant this being 90% of the retail price but wanting £20 for shipping is taking the piss

 

Personally i always factor shipping costs into my asking price but £20 is not unreasonable. depending on size and weight parcel force 48 can run £13/14 and you can easily spend another £7/8 on packing materials.

As @-davo- posted rifs aren't covered by the extra insurance so I didn't include it and as said rif is being shipped in its original box the only extra packaging material needed is something to cover up the outside

Ah, but you're missing the fine details... 'fully upgraded' doubles the value.

Given the clown is also selling v3 AKM GHK mags with the feedlips already filed (GHK system is reliant on the feedlips being tight to get proper airseal, if you are getting jams its the BBs or your guidetabs on the nozzle not the feedlips, but I digress) I doubt he could upgrade his own arse with both hands.  I have forgotten more than this clown knows about GHKs.

 

If the argument did hold water that the upgrade parts were worth full value its still doesn't account for £600 difference.  But hey, don't criticise him!

Did I really need a smiley face to emphasise sarcasm?

Unless they've changed their terms, there's no point buying the insurance with PF since, as far as I remember, RIFs are excluded from the extended insurance cover
I'd be surprised if they even gave you the £150 in the standard cover they offer for any lost rifs

I've had a chat with Luke over at negative airsoft about this and he's explained how even if the delivery van ran over a mine and exploded or if the driver got a change of heart and decided to take your pew and become a nomad in the woods they'd find a way to weasel out of the cover, it's just completely pointless and a waste of money really

Didn't even spot that, just thought the price was a bit mad, these are £125-£150 rrp usually ?

Correct. However I haven't seen those green grips before so maybe there's £100 worth of krylon on there😂😂😂

 

Also I don't know where he got the idea that's a flared mag well. It looks pretty standard to me

I don't know why he's calling it a "magwell safety" either

[Cannonfodder]

I guess he means the grip safety

What kind of smack has to be smoked/injected/inhaled/swallowed to put a £550 price tag on this bundle?

"Beginners bundle" = Two-tone shit I bought and used for a month before dropping the sport - whilst trying to salvage what I paid. Although, what caught my attention is that the OP bought four of the same batteries, presumably for the usage of the same RIF. Plus, there are plenty of retailers with simply superior "beginners bundles" to offer for a fraction of the price
