98c's, a second phantom because...reasons?, Intimidator to build and that's just within the past year when I decided to get back into it. I have a lot of impulse buys (about 95% of my current markers), unfortunately. I went and purged a ton last fall, and will likely need to do it again.

2 seasons ago, I impulse bid on a 68-classic automag , brand new in box, with a JJ barrel, on ebay . I threw a $125 max bid at it, thinking new in box would see it go a lot higher. Don't I end up winning the thing!
The shipment arrives and I notice right away the guy forgets to include the JJ barrel, so I try to contact him to either refund me the cost of the barrel, or just ship the barrel to me at his expense.
The dude ghosts me.
I try multiple times over a week, finally give up and open a claim with Paypal. I expected them to refund me maybe the cost of the barrel , say $30....but they ended up refunding me the entire sale!!!
I figured i'd get a reply now from the guy , once he saw the money leave his paypal, and then my plan was to settle up with him, xfer the money back minus the cost of that barrel.
Incredibly, nothing but crickets from him still !
Very weird situation, but hey, free automag!!!

Just bought 4 stingrays off ebay because I wanted 1. I was only interested in them because they were the original full barrel cover version that I remember from back in the day."but we all have electros and you guys only have pumps, this wont be fair"

Don’t regret it. But buying my PGP2k was a impulse buy. Found it covered in dust new in box at a pro shop one day. Never really gave them much thought prior. And I never been much good at playing stock class but I had to have it.
Think I may have run it twice at a field in this entire time but still happy I have it.
