    "but we all have electros and you guys only have pumps, this wont be fair"

        Ahhh, I bought this lot on my lunch break! I was scanning ebay, clicked on this lot read the description, and I blacked out! I don't understand much of what he was saying. I wanted the old electro hopper in the lot. I figured between that and the mag it was worth it. Shipping was only $28 too. I wonder if he is going to give me trouble when he finds out it will cost him $80 to ship.

          Nice, I have never heard of one. Let's hope this stuff doesn't stink to high heaven.

          It is basically a fixed barrel Trracer, the internals are nearly identical so don't expect it to be a carter or anything. It was actually my first marker that I ever owned and was my main marker for 3-4 years back in the 90's.

          I recently sent mine to Doc and had the barrel cocker threaded

          What are the odds, I just watched docs YouTube video on him cocker threading a fixed barrel marker, lol. If I like it maybe I'll send him a message. I have always admired his works.

        $28? For me it said $97 or something for shipping.

          He had the express shipping listed as the main shipping so it was super expensive. If you scrolled down though there was a FedEx option for 27.70. he is gonna get burned on shipping. I wrote them and said don't worry about shipping the paint and some other things to cut back on shipping costs.

          But that paint might be the old stuff that actually fit the barrels. You could have resold it as "vintage" 😃

        I woke up to 12 messages from the seller, they are upset about shipping. The messages make about as much sense as the description. They keep asking these odd questions and I have no idea what they want me to do, lol.

        I told them again to toss everything but the guns and hoppers and ship the cheapest method, but they wrote back saying Express is over $300. I knew this would be a mess, lol

          I got a message that just said "got it" then a shipping confirmation and the shipping slip said under contents "paintballs and paintball tubes". I told them to toss the paintballs and tubes and send the guns and hoppers. I am now worried they sent just the paintballs and tubes. We will see on the 27th, lol.

        WTF are they trying to ship it next day air? I just bought a big lot (45-50lbs) and the guy charged me 125. Which is probably still twice what he paid.

          I don't think it was next day but it was "express" they kept saying that they wanted me to get this before Christmas, but I specifically told them I didn't care how long it took. I'm not playing until the spring. This was just a real bad call on my part, I should have known better, there were too many red flags.

        Gamble could pay off. Who knows, maybe he'll accidently ship you his meth lab.

              I got the package in today, they shipped it express. It came with a ton of awesome stuff. Four old school hoppers, two powered, one I have never heard or seen before made by USI https://paintballhistory.com/vintage...TFRI8w8iezhKjc.

              It came with a 68 Special with three cool barrels prob not working. A Talon, Nice Automag needs a rebuild, and a Black Hawk Nelson pump, which shoots great!

              Also came with pods tanks and some other stuff prob not gonna see much use.

                Not bad. The Mag probably makes up pretty close to what you paid for the whole thing

                  The lot came with about 500rds of Evil paint, 1000 rds of Marb, and maybe 1000 of something else. I toweled off all the paint and I kid you not the marbs and evil shoot better than paint I have been buying at fields. Breaks super easy and nice and round. Bring back the old paint!!!
