Dammit who Snagged it!

[Griffin]

Title says it all who snagged the JLS F2000 Electric Airsoft Rifle that mark got in at A&A.

[Deftonius]

I can tell you who didn't snag one...

...You.

FACE.

[ThunderCactus]

he should have another one up there pretty soon

[Griffin]

Any other new items not yet listed on his site TC?

[Tankdude]

Exactly 5 times the cost it is in HK.

Pretty impressive mark up, but since its rare, why not.

[Amos]

That was supposed to be my baby... But it wouldn't have came in intime for the indoors season.

Whoever got it, Talk to me. I've got an entire list of stuff you need to change as soon as you get the gun to make is a beast of an airsoft gun

[HaZarD SFD]

ya ok. and you forgot the part about the nice little (or should i say big) profit for him too. i wonder how much profit he makes on a gun?

[McKee]

Well I just bought a WGC custom xm177e1... 740$ with shipping... its like 230$ from WGC... it's a shitload of fuck but what are you going to do, airsoft importers can charge whatever the hell they want because we have no other choice.

I love people who feel business should run non-profit especially in support of their hobbies. I have some free advice for all, free since that's what the best things in life are.

1)Move to Hong Kong, stuff's cheap there I've heard.

2)Start your own business, I bet Flame would take some partners on.

3)Or face facts.

This "hobby" of running around with toy guns fits into a tiny niche in the real world. There will never be an airsoft gun lending library, and there will never be widespread acceptance in the population. Even professionals like the military and police don't get the time of day here, maybe because they haven't got enough flashlights strapped on yet. Maybe we need a poll on that.

Money talks, and bullshit walks. Now please feel free to have hurt feelings, sulk, post up photo's of yourself with wads of Cdn tire money or your parent's credit cards.

[McKee]

Yeah, no way should businesses be non profit.. nobody is saying that. However, when just across the border you can buy an airsoft gun for 1/4 of the price, and here we're being charged over 300% mark up... thats a little fucking excessive. So yes, at the end of the day the only choice we have is to suck on it and pay the money or quit playing, that doesnt mean im not angry about it, and with the dollar as it is right now, its only twisting the knife deeper.

[ancorp]

$550 for that thing?! That is abso-friggin-lutely ridiculous. I can't believe someone payed that kind of money. It should cost about $300 at most, but hey, it sold fast, and more people would spend that kind of money on one, so why not make a nice huge profit from it, right?

[Goldman]

99 usd to 550 cdn eh? Right on, just hope the mechbox doesnt fail since the box itself is proprietary.

IF I understand what I have read about the laws well were lucky to get any guns sold to us period. With that said I can see why he or ken or anyone else who has the proper licenses etc selling them for such a price.
