Buying stuff off ebay

    Personally, I haven;t bought of this buyer before, but that sling looks alot like the free one you will usually get with Snipers, and I can say, they are pure crap. TBH, I personally could never trust a cheap sling.

    Why spend €250 on an AEG and then 5 on something that's gonna stop it crashing to the ground?

    That sling does look like crap and as for the seller with 99% you would probably have no problems with. I bought a reflex sight off a hk seller with no problems!

    Looks exaclty like the sling that I got with my AK Spetz. Lasted 1 outing and then it broke.

    Invest in a decent one and you wont have any worries.

    Guns are too good to put a cheap sling on to.

    When buying on ebay just keep the phrase "you get what you pay for" in the back of your mind and you'll be fine. (And personally I would not buy that sling.)

    tbh, ebay varies... its like saying 'i want to buy from Portobello market... who's bought from them before? when its a hundred or more stalls... It depends, check peoples ratings.

    THe sling in paticular, looks like the cheap **** that comes with chinese aegs... I wouldnt bother.

    You can pick up good quality, comfortable, IDF slings for about €15 posted. I'd need to find the seller though, but shouldn't be too hard to find.

    So you can waste €4, or for the sake of an extra €10 get something robust and comfortable.
