Sheridan XTS listed originally for $450.00 Its not uncommon to have a weird gun listed for too much, but this was my interaction with the seller.
Me: "Its a Sheridan XTS. The last one I saw sold for $30-ish. You can do an advanced search and select "sold" to price check."
Them: "Okay lol , def not the same gun… this one is extremely rare and you will not find it"
Them: "Best of luck"
Me: "I'm not interested, I was just pointing out what it is and what its worth. Again, you can search for "Sold" listings to see how much something sold for. Also here are 2 current listings for this model
Sheridan XTS Paintball Gun (Includes: Manual, Hopper, Squeegee)
Sheridan XTS Paintball Marker Black
Them: "Okay cool , I don’t remember me asking you ?? So why don’t you mind your own business 🤓"
The majority of the sellers with unidentified items that I identify are thankful for the info and sometimes even adjust the price to reflect the market.
Some of the sellers I've interacted with are a combination of Doc's famous "Craigslist Strip" and the antiques road show people who think their yardsale junk is worth a fortune. Thats probably this seller.
But, years ago I read an article about craigslist sales that had some theory like "When someone on Craigslist selling a dresser shows a picture of a teddy-bear sitting on the top left of the dresser and they have it listed for $12k, it actually means they are selling half a kilo of cocaine". More recently I've read about people laundering money by selling random junk on ebay for way more than its worth so they don't have to deal in cash... which isn't exactly a new way of laundering money.
So what do we think, just a belligerent guy who won't google his own item and explain why its rare, or someone laundering bathtub meth money with a fake ebay paintball sale?
