Looking for a CPS 1700 or two

Post by **Aqua_Flash** » Thu Jul 05, 2007 4:46 am

I know they aren't too available, however if someone has a CPS 1700 or two to sell or trade then I'm interested, I'm sorting out my armoury one last time and making lots of changes, thus why I have lots of guns available to trade for a CPS 1700 depending on condition and all.

I have the following guns that I am planning to sell or trade:

CPS 2000 (3) - Boxed one is leaky, other two fine
CPS 2500 (2) - Both fine and working like new
Monster XL 2002-03 - Nice condition, works like new

If there's no interest I plan to sell them soon in a week or two on eBay.

If any of them interests you and you have a CPS 1700 or two you would be willing to sell or trade, ask and hopefully something can be worked out. Just remember to give me fair offers.

However I will be watching eBay just in case, as like I said before I'm aware they aren't offered much.

Thanks.

Could you possibly post what you would be looking for, in terms of prices? I mean, for the 2000/2500/MXL?
I'd be happy to buy at least one of them from you;
at least one of any of the models that you have listed. Most likely just one of them as i probably can't afford more. I don't have a 1700. sorry, but i'll be happy to offer cash.

Sorry I'm only willing to trade some for a CPS 1700 if anyone does. The only reason why I mentioned sell was due to the fact some of the guns in terms of value are worth a bit more than a CPS 1700 in which I'd probably want a bit of cash as well.

Besides the shipping on them would kill. If nobody has a CPS 1700 I'm fairly sure I can get the prices I want selling them on eBay soon, in which if a CPS 1700 pops up I can just buy hopefully, however I'll wait for a bit longer to see if anyone here has one (doubtful but still).

Unfortunately, you probably won't get the prices you're thinking of. 2000s have not been breaking $200, MXLs have not been breaking $150, 2500s have not been breaking $70. The Ebay market is flat right now. It is not a good time to sell unless you need cash fast and can accept lower-than-peak premiums.

CPS 1700s have disappeared off the face of the earth. I cannot remember how long ago the last one popped up on Ebay, months probably.

There is a CPS 1500 on eBay right now. If it's performance you're going for, the CPS1500 should be virtually identical. OF course, if you want the colouring of the CPS1700, well, then a CPS1500 won't match your desire.

For your information, I sold a 2 CPS 2500's a few weeks ago for just over £50/$100 each on eBay UK. The UK market has been behaving differently in terms of prices, however for now I'm waiting until there is an improvement in the weather which will be a week or two.

I guess I'll just wait for a 1700 on eBay or hopefully someone may post here who is selling one (doubtful again).

Do you live in Toronto? Canadian Tire was selling some CPS 1700's, but they weren't very cheap, if I can recall (59.99 for a 1700, as good as they are, they aren't worth that much) but if you're willing to spend money on a soaker you really want, then go for it!

I live in the United Kingdom, however I'd be fine with that price. I take it that they were new? I would be willing to pay that price for the gun plus the UK shipping.

It went for twenty dollars. Yep, twenty dollars. My idiot friend didn't tell me about it until there were only five frakkin' minutes left, and I wasn't able to get on in time because my ebay account decided that that day of all days to just not work. I'm still crying inside because of it....

Since it doesn't look like anybody has a CPS 1700, I have put up my guns on eBay, I'm sure I'll find the right 1500/1700's for me sooner or later.

Anyway all my auctions of nearly all of my armoury are listed here.

Wow, I can't believe the second CPS2.5K is the highest so far! I thought It would either be the CPS2K MK.1 or the MXL. But the CPS2.5K? Wow!
