Hi Lads,
I have a non airsoft item Dell 5100 MP Digital projector almost new(41hrs on a 2200 lamp)
I would like to trade it for a FN200/A&K Dragunov/MK60/CAm249 or SR25 type of AEG.
Is there a way of doing this on this thread or can you advise what to do.
this would provide users on this thread an oppurtunity for a great trade deal
Thanks

Dogwatch

Yes, you can do it with a wanted ad. The emphasis has to on the airsoft items and
say you want to trade.

I originally listed my PT99 for €110 because it had a leaky mag and the slide lock kept engaging after each shot, both of those issues are fixed now I want to sell the AEG pistol for more than I originally listed it for as the faults are gone, do I need to get a new Ad or can I increase the price of my current Ad

Dogwatch

This thread.....http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=96057699

No to both questions. A slightly leaky mag is not sufficient reason as they are easily fixed and there is no mention of the slide in the thread.

Is it okay to list "Clearout" in a thread's title if further info is given e.g. "Clearout: Gun X + Accessories, Gun Y + Accessories, Assorted Tactical Gear"?

shytan

Yes thats O.K

Hi All,

New user here. I'm Dave. I placed an airsoft gun for sale (not sure if the ad is live), as a new user I couldn't post a website link. (sorry about that) The mod removed the link and told me to add price and specs of air gun. I tried to do this but I am unable to edit the ad. Do I create a new ad? Have I been blocked or banned because I posted a website link?

Any help/advise would be appreciated.

Newbie Dave

Steve

Hi Dave,

Welcome to boards / airsoft.

You haven't been blocked or restricted, there's a time limit here on when you can edit a post so best thing to do is start a new thread, I'll close your existing one.

If you need any help with posting pics etc or what has to be in the ad, please ask here.

shytan

Hey, I just found this thread. I would like to sell a G36C i bought from Main Irish Airsoft about 4 years ago. I only used it for a month back then, it's been sitting in my room since. My problem is I don't know what make it is cause i no longer have the box. It looks exactly like the HK G36C Sport Line Airsoft AEG on the Main Irish Airsoft website (I'm a new user so can't post links) but it has no markings for the make for some reason. I never really noticed at the time not sure if that's normal or what. I can post pictures soon if that's needed. Thanks.

Dvraiz

Update: For some reason I cannot edit my post, not sure if it's because I'm a new user or what. Anyway, I found the charger and was able to find out it's an ASG JG G36c.

shytan

To start a thread just click on the New thread tab at the bottom left corner of the adverts forum and fill out the form make sure to include the FPS/muzzle energy for the aeg you are selling and check -http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057193411 to find out how to post photos, hope this helps

Morning. I'm unsure if this is the right place to ask but i could not find an answer to my question.

Im a looking to sell my airsoft equipment and AEG, I have a buyer but he is 14 yo.

Is there any legal recourse from a parent etc, Is he legally allowed buy it and visa versa on me selling it to him?

Any info appreciated

I am a private seller.

Regards

Neil

shytan

The sale of an AEG to a minor is illegal without a parent or guardian present.Hope this helps

neildyr

Nice one, thanks for the helpful info. Will insist on a parental figure when buying it.

Regards

Can some of the category mods have a look at this for me please as it appears shytan and Dogwatch are working together on this one...

First off... After an offer of trade was made by myself to shytan he came back with a counter offer of my stuff plus €40 his way... I asked him how he came by that as the value of his gear was similar to the value of my gear once the conversion had been done from £to €.. He gave me a price breakdown and wen I asked how he came by the prices he said 2nd hand market..... Fair enough.... I asked wer he had found it out as I couldn't see that info anywer.... He then failed to provide the information....

This is a blatent attempt by shytan to stroke me...for want of a better word.... He has made up prices he wanted to pay for my stuff and tried to get extra money to sweeten his deal... Only wen he was Confronted he couldn't live up to his statements.... Now I know this kind of thing goes on....
But it is not something I have come to expect from a MOD on this forum....!! It's appealing behaviour to be honest and only adds to the bad name that this forum has in the Airsoft community....!!
I went on to tell him that it was grand... For me a better choice will be another rifle and I explained why..... He then went into a rant about how his was better.... I asked him if he seriously was saying that....only for the post to be removed by dogwatch.....
I bumped my own thread and said tounge in cheek that I would accept trades but no G&G rubbish or somerhing along those lines....only for shytan to edit it and state it was for rambling....
Granted my post was young in cheek....but why has shytan taken a personal vandetta against me by editing my post..... Surely it is up to me to me as to what manufacturer I want in a trade..... And how I articulate that information in my post, as long as it is within forum rules, is my business....!! What right does this so called mod have to edit my post....?? And ..... I can't post on my thread....?? Someone sort this out please.....!!

When the site was hacked it looks like most people can't post pics now as they won't open when you post them or the site won't allow it the other times. Is this being looked into does anyone know? Thanks

Dogwatch

Yes, it was reported to office. Now reported again to office as they were showing a few days agoe

Dogwatch

Update...... There is an issue with attachments which they hope will be fixed on Monday

T-Maxx

Maybe this question has been asked/answered already but I'm not going to read through nearly 30 pages to find out so;

Is it deemed acceptable to engage on-thread with a seller even though no muzzle velocity has been stated for the item? Can an offer be made or would it be limited to general questions regarding the item?

Dogwatch

You could make the offer subject to a legal fps being provided.
If you notice that the fps has not been posted, you could ask for it as well as your other questions.
You could also report the post for Mod attention as well.
It is in all our interests the anything sold is within the law of the land

Trying desperately to get rid of two airsoft guns - a Colt 1911 and an AK Spetsnaz. No where near an airsoft shop to get the joules tested so would using another example (possibly on this marketplace even) of joules for the same guns be sufficient? Used both of them in skirmishes for 2 years straight if honesty is any assurance.

You are required to post the actual muzzle energy of the guns you wish to sell here, guesses are not enough, shops or sites should be able to chrono them for you.

I have a lot of airsoft kit including Mp5 for which is up for sale on Facebook and some on boards. My question really relates to adverts.ie but the help forum is closed so cant post there.

Basically what I want to do post in adverts.ie stating that I have airsoft kit and AEG and want to swap for Xbox one. I understand I am not allowed to sell the AEG on adverts (fires at 0.80 joule in case you ask) but can I include them as part of a potential trade

thanks
Techy_1

Dogwatch

You would have to check with mods on Adverts.ie but I think there is a blanket ban of RIF's.

Techy_1

Yeah I kinda thought that, what I will do then is remove the current Ad in Airsoft adverts and relist it as swap only and include every item I have for sale including the clothing and RIF

thanks for the advice

Steve

You can sell all except the guns on adverts.ie

digital ninja

hey im wondering how the selling works within the marketplace?
ive only ever traded guns here so ive no experience with selling or buying.

Steve

The first post in the rules thread covers how it works, if you have any specific questions after reading it then we will be glad to help.

digital ninja

ah thank you,i think im more confused with the paypal side of it,like receiving the money from a sale,thanks again

Steve

I've only ever bought stuff with paypal, not sure how much help I can be there. Do you have an account?
If you are unsure or untrusting then the best thing to do is insist on a face-to-face meeting to deal.

digital ninja

yeah ive got a personal i use to buy stuff on ebay but i dont know if i can sell or recieve money on that account?would this be a question for paypal maybe man?

Steve

I was hoping someone might offer an answer here, best if you ask on a paypal related forum.

shytan

Your paypal account home page has tabs for sending money you can also send money (as a gift) to anyone with a paypal account as well as someone sending you money they just need the email address linked to your account

digital ninja

ah thank you very much,so who ever buys my rifle,id give them my email and then they can send the money to that,i understand now thanks guys

Steve

Just beware of sending money 'as a gift', never do it to pay for something. It's often asked for because the paypal fee is less however, you cannot raise a dispute if something goes wrong.

edbrenna

Hi I've made an offer for a gun on adverts, 10 euro below the asking price, the seller never replied to the offer, now a week later another buyer has offered the asking, and the seller has apparently agreed to sell, my question is should he have replied to my offer ????

thermo

Maybe he missed your post?

Steve

Its not a requirement to reply if the offer is less than the asking price.
