When in doubt, start with a high price. You can always entertain offers or come down in price.
|
|

Yes seller looks like a shitbag because he refunded the guys money. He could have accepted a higher offer from someone else no problem but not after taking the other guys payment then kicking it back. Is that bad enough to warrant loss of privileges? That's a lot of money to leave on the table though.
I may or may not have previously offered more for an item in the ee that was already claimed |
|
|
Agreed. Accepting payment was a definite, complete deal. Very douche'.

Damn, what a rollercoaster with this tanodized G33 situation. I thought it was reaching critical mass over in the feedback thread, lol. I was wondering if torches and pitchforks would be provided, or do we need to bring our own?
Then the seller pulls a fast one and decides to honor the original deal? Didn't see that one coming. |

I just couldn't believe he was about to burn an 04 paid account with a bunch of perfect feedback over a magnifier. But that difference is (to me) a lot of money and I've seen ppl get themselves banned for a lot less.
If WILSON did have to threaten HOS for him to react the way he did, then he didn't make the turn around I thought. Sounds more like a personal info self preservation last ditch bitch move if that is what transpired. Don't know. But at least tacdriver is getting what a rightfully his. That's the biggest thing I care about on the subject. And I prob won't be doing any business with the seller in the future. |

What made that G33 so rare? Is this one of those clone parts where commercial buyers bitched about 14 different shades of anodizing so they stopped offering it commercially and went to a more uniform coating, thus making it super rare? Or is it rare for some other reason?

Just as a small heads up, the Arms Unlimited Surefire suppressor deals come with a catch.
I jumped on one of the 556-212s and it showed up with the collar beat to hell and an RMA # on the box. Thought that was odd, so I reached out to both AU and SF. Contact AU and they told me to talk to Surefire. Surefire said all the AU cans are very well used and refurbished. They're .mil cans that are basically sent back once units upgrade. AU sends them to surefire, who repaints them, gives them a new box, pouch, manuals, etc. Surefire sends them back to AU and asks they mention their history on the site, but I haven't seen any mention of them being used/refurbs/once issued/or anything else. They're working on resolving the issue. I know some guys in here probably like the fact they're actually issued. But they're military used. Which likely means lots of rounds through them, and everything has it's life span. For the price, it's hard to complain. Just think that's something that should be mentioned up front. Now you guys know. Had my collar been fine, and the box not marked, I never would have known.... |

I ran into a weird problem with my MK18 build. It has a MK18 LMT upper. I recently pulled out the round forward assist and dropped in a teardrop. I have swapped out forward assists numerous times, but I have never had this happen. It moves freely as it should, but the hook never actually contacts the BCG. It's almost like it's too short except it worked fine in the Bushmaster C7 style upper it came out of. The original worked just fine. Anyone ever experienced this before?
Also, pic thread: (I wish I still had the EOTech) Attached File |
