This is why I WILL buy from Jordan7831 he told me what was wrong with the gun, it was no big issue, he knows the gun well and is a solid guy. Oh wait shouldn't to be bitching about something?

Fucking clearsofters!

Thanks for the kind words. How is my ol' P226 treating you these days?

I also gave him a nice long write up on how to fully disassemble the gun and offered support in case you had any issues as well. Sellers shouldnt end communications after a sale is over. They should be available after the fact to offer support in case its needed.

Thats just me anyways.

I fixed the double feeding issue, just needed a cleaning so that slide cycled better. Works fine, just need more mags to make it more gameable now its like a desperate last resort in combat.

i know head shots suck ive had my fair share of them but sometimes if someone is only giving you his head that is all you have to shoot at.....

[jordan7831]

I dont understand why some people that sell their PTW in excess of 2000 have the balls to demand that the buyer pays for the shipping. On top of that some even demand the paypal with +4% be used as the payment method. THATS 80 FUCKING DOLLARS in paypal fees alone. Surely if your demanding two grand for a gun you can take a hit and give free shipping, or at the very least work the shipping cost into the asking price.

[Ricochet]

I don't agree that the seller should pay shipping because his sale item is expensive. I am however a big fan of having the shipping included in the sale price. It does make things more clear and easy.

I've actually been noticing a rash of this kind of thing as well. It's starting to seep into some more serious milsims.

Ya but if I as a perspective buyer am already paying 2 grand for a toy gun why should I shell another $40 to pay for shipping? And on top of that another 80 in paypal 4% bullshit?

[Grudge]

Either shipping is included in the price or you pay extra, either way I would pay for the shipping if I was buying. Just like with a retailer!

As for the 4% extra on Paypal, that is against the TOS for Paypal and you can loose your account for doing it! But then again you can offer a price like 2120 and include shipping and paypal, then offer a discount to 2040 for cash or EMT!

Your obligations when receiving funds

13.3. If you receive funds through our Services you must:

1. pay any Fees for receiving the funds into your Account depending on whether it is a Commercial Transaction or Personal Transaction;
2. not ask the buyer to send you the payment through a Personal Transaction if you sell goods or services and PayPal is chosen as the payment method; or
3. not impose a surcharge or any other fee for accepting our Services as a payment method.

It would work out to the same thing!

Why don't players that don't wear face protection aways poke their head out instead of sticking their body out so I can shoot at it.

If you're presented with just a head and you PID your target, take the shot. If someone whines about being shot in the head, remind him you're playing airsoft.

[PrIeSt]

If all you see is a head it's fair game. I think people have issues with being shot in te face when they are fully exposed. Yes it's the persons preference to not wear face mask. But it's a dick move just shooting for face when you have other options.

I think this particular peeve needs its own You'll Get Shot In The Face And Like It thread...
