Selling Monster XL

Post by **pritch** » Thu Jan 26, 2006 10:46 am

Hey,

I'm in the UK. I have a Monster XL that I kind of need to get rid of due to impending move and lack of space. The thing is just so darn big :;):

I rescued it from going in a friends bin a while back. It's in good condition overall, there are a couple of scuffs but minor. There's no discolouring as it's lived inside. The main problem is that it leaks from the charging nozzle when pumped, so it doesn't build up much pressure at all. It needs fixing somehow, I've made a couple of attempts but never cracked it. I used to fight this gun with my CPS1500 and I know it hasn't been used that much at all as the fault developed quite early in it's life.

Anyway I'm a bit old for the scene now just wondered if there'd be any interest from UK soakers who want to make an offer. I really wouldn't want to see this end up scrapped cos they don't make 'em like this anymore

WHAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!IF I HAD A MONSTER XL I WOULD NEVER EVER GET RID OF IT NO MATTER WHAT.Maybe you could get a different cap but that is just my guess.

Please don't use all caps and so many commas. That is often considered spam, and at the least is annoying. A post like that would get you flamed/banned at a place such as NerfHaven. We are very lenient here, but don't test it...

You should sell it on eBay in early/mid spring to get the most money. People would pay $100+ even for a gun that isn't in the best condition, if you market it right, not that I'm garenteeing you'll get $100. But if you're looking to get it to a good home, and aren't so much after money, then someone on the forums might buy it.

I browsed the nerfhaven boards once, didn't really like it, then again I don't like nerf.

I'd reccomend a CPS 1500 or a CPS 1700 or a CPS 2500. The 2500 goes for less than half the price of the MXL, and the 1500 and 1700 go for a fifth of the cost. I have a MXL, and, though it isn't too bad a soaker, I prefer the 1700 to it.

How much would you want for it if someone in the USA wanted it?

Hi, sorry I really can't post this to the US, I think it weighs more empty than my 1500 does fully filled!

Oh.

But wait, why not UPS it?

UPS costs a fortune, sadly. You'd be looking at over £50 for shipping alone, I would guess.

AKA ~$87.35, plus at least $50 for the gun, way too much money to be anywhere near worth it.

Does anybody in the USA want to sell a MXL?

Post by **Soaker Master** » Wed Mar 01, 2006 6:54 pm

Did you know that on ebay there is a cheap Monster Xl that will ship to the United States. The only thing that is wrong with it is that it has a broken bipod and a jammed trigger. I'm debating over to buy it or a working CPS 4100 and Monster X. Crashdummy also wants to buy it though.

Got that right. N' I got deep pockets. :laugh: More like I know my mom's paypal account and ebay account. :blues:
