Strangest trade / swap / part-ex offer you've had?
16 January, 2014, 18:20
Feeling somewhat inspired by a previous thread, I am on a mission to find out just how many other crack heads there are out there in Airsoftlandshire.
So, what is the strangest request or proposition have you had for a bit of kit you are advertising?
This can include all the:
"Not interested in G36s"
"Hi mate, I have a G36 if you are interested"
But I am much more interested in the offers of hamster cages and antique gaming systems!!
I love Airsoft

Re: Strangest trade / swap / part-ex offer you've had?
Once had a guy offer me his JG ex two-tone M4 as a swap for my Inokatsu AK74 because, quote, 'I can get that AK for £130 from China'. Not so much an odd item, but his complete inability to understand there were different makes of AK/M4 etc was quite impressive.

It just annoys me that M79s are in MW2 when everyone else is using stupid futureweapons.
Derbyshire- apparently the secret training grounds of the Russian special forces.

Was it Scottkilller2000?
If it was, I imagine the plane was built to be piloted by his uber rich, playboy hamster!

Re: Strangest trade / swap / part-ex offer you've had?
I think topping the hamster cage is practically unbeatable, and should anyone have something that does, we want proof!
Mine's pretty poor in comparison, but I was selling a G&P M16A2 for £250 and said I'd take a TM1911 as p/x. I got a PM from someone asking that if he went and bought a brand new TM1911 (was £99.99 on Zero One at the time) then would I do a straight swap?

Re: Strangest trade / swap / part-ex offer you've had?
I was offered an ex two-tone JG Beta Spetz as a straight swap for the airsoft surgeon modified ARES AWS sniper rifle I had up for sale because "its custom and i've modified it".
Needless to say my response to that pm called doubt on the originators personal hygiene and the mating habits of his predecessors.
I also had someone offer me £150 all in for the para ordinanace pro-killer and Doberman i was selling for £175 each with spare mags. Even more entertaining the guy in question then left me negative feedback (since rescinded) after receiving my response to his offer.

I was rather shocked when he said that. I had to re-read it a few times.
But seriously? a Hamster cage?!?

Re: Strangest trade / swap / part-ex offer you've had?
I too was offered a two tone JG M4 CQB for a CA M4 with 203, couple of moscarts and chrome dessie eagle with 2x mags. It must be the same kid as Nun chuck, because he literally wouldn't take it that he was a tit and his gun wasn't worth anywhere near what he thought it was. It was of course, my loss and I am a big fat loser and he wasn't going to hang around for ever etc.
I was also offered two parakeets in a cage by a lad. Can't recall what for though? I declined.

It's quite a funky looking hamster cage to be fair!

If I had a hamster, it would most certainly have that cage! I might have even entertained the swap!
