Mostly Retired Moderators L3wisD Posted February 7, 2018 Mostly Retired Moderators Posted February 7, 2018 I'm aware of that, given how your first sentence in the thread is "I'm selling my..." BBG often builds and sells high end RIFs, if anyone knows if £750 is too low of an offer, it'll be him.
Wo1f Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 You can buy them new from powair6 for £900 so I say that’s a fair deal. I’ve seen them go for as low as £500 on weaponcrates.

MILITATED Posted February 7, 2018 Posted February 7, 2018 For reference, I got 2 offers of 1.1k within 48 hours for my GBB one which will be collected on Sunday. However, mine was essentially brand new, as were the things that came with it. I would not have let it go for anything less than 1k to be honest, but the AEG one is more common and doesn't have things like a true ambi selector, so a lower price may be expected. However, £750 is essentially an insult for a £1.5k build. I usually have a rule where I will accept no less than 75% (of retail) for a build, or higher depending on rarity and condition. Sure, things may take longer to sell but I would rather not lose too much.

Do you think 850 all in would be more of a good price, I would be happy with that.

Supporters ImTriggerHappy Posted February 8, 2018 Supporters Posted February 8, 2018 Build is more like £1300 new and 2/3rds of new is average price. Things like the motor and barrel dont add much so deduct price of original parts from what you paid for those then add 2/3rds of leftover. Warfet again doesn't add much as most people with half an idea would want it out as they are awful. Only gate mosfet I would advise against. £750/800 seems fair as it is not a particularly sort after gun.
Supporters Druid799 Posted February 8, 2018 Supporters Posted February 8, 2018 Think it’s safe too say BBG knows what he’s talking about price wise ! but what it comes down too is ; A, you’ve obviously been around the block (don’t think a noobie in his hoodie and trakies would build this !) B, you built it so you know what went in too it C, Others can say to you “I wouldn't drop below X,Y,Z “ but what are YOU happy to take for it ?
