Buyairsoft.ca?
 
after a quick search for a review with not much of a result on the forums i decided to post up.

I tried out the online chat with buyairsoft today to find out when the g&g umg will be in stock. I've also noticed its been out of stock for at least a month since ive been looking.

"Madeline" responds back saying they update their online inventory every 30-60 days.

Before ending the conversation i say that i would like to order as soon as possible and i thank her for helping.

I come home only to find an email stating they are in stock.

Coincidental? or something to be cautious about...

avoid buyairsoft.ca like aids. They take to long to get your order and I would not support a seller that encourages kids to play airsoft.

Try the classifieds buddy, your aved now use it :P

I'd buy from another retailer whether its in stock or not. I looked at this site when I was in the market for an AEG and I'm glad I didn't buy from them, I have heard alot about their lack of knowledge and they gave me incorrect info when I had a live chat with them (Madeline). I wouldn't trust them.

The place has had problems and users here do not enjoy the fact that they sell to underage peoples as well they have a 'kids' edition for sale. So in short, stay away. And you can find all the dirt on them with a little effort.

Oh shit.

Wow. Thanks guys.

Rather encourages them to play irresponsibly. I have no problem with a retailer who sells to parents who they judge (I know, it's arbitrary to do this) to be responsible and not just give little billy his gun and run amok with it.

To be honest I've kind of had a change of heart (no I'm not "going native") but if a parent is genuinely interested and understands the risks associated with not supervising their kid while using it and always supervises them while using it and keeps it under lock and key when not in use there's no reason why they shouldn't be able to get their hands on one. I know that it's an ideal that 99% of the time doesn't happen since the parents just let their kids run amok and blame anything and everything for their screwed up kid. There are ASC members who are parents and I believe one member who has a young kid that shoots a TM "boys series" gun in the backyard with supervision and treats it like a real firearm and when not in use it's under lock and key. That's how things should be done IMO not this lazy parenting bullshit "buy my kids an airsoft leave them unsupervised and go to the mall or w/e". Really it's good reinforcement for the next generation of airsofters (I am not saying kidiots who run amok and play in public parks or w/e but the net generation of interested welcome additions to the community)

Anyways, aside from my little rant I would avoid buyairsoft/CAS and instead vote with my dollar and buy from places like the retailers in the classifieds, and places that only sell to 18+ (and/or "responsible parents").

I'll have G&G UMG in stock in about 4-5 weeks.

FrankieCees, you're AV'd now man; there's no reason in the world for you to be shopping at BuyAirsoft

The one time I bought from buyairsoft.ca, they sent me the wrong gun, but it was better than the one I wanted so I kept it anyway. I would avoid them if I was you.

Buyairsoft.ca?
 
Haha... I saw some one with a nice quote once. I think something like sending someone to buyairsoft isnlike sending someone to a Thai hooka with no protection or something. ;) was laughing so hard

Because you never know what you're going to get

I ordered my AEG from them, didn't have any of the hassles you guys are talking about. I guess I got really really lucky! Don't think I will be buying any more from them though.

The reason I ended up ordering from them is that they had the G&G M4-CQB/R in all black, and they are starting to get a lot of all black AEGs.

lol Yeah, that was my quote. I can't remember exactly who sigged it though.

Rabbit May 26th, 2010 10:38

Meh..I was just going to order from them because I would be getting something brand new. No hassles.

The gun im looking only has one post up in the classifieds and they're asking for more than I would be paying with buyairsoft and theirs is used.
