I actually bid on that item. $200 was a bit high for me. I wonder how much he put in as a bid.

Prices are going out of control, who would ever have thought a cps 3200 would be worth over $80.

Edit: there is only one page of stuff on ebay, and whats there is mostly STE crap. People might be checking less so if something good were to come up, not many people would know.

Demand would drop, maybe not prices but demand would. But both will probably go down, since prices are linked to demand. :cool:

Wow. I'm betting that $250 won't be enough to get that. And what are the other guns that are not so clear?

When i saw it my jaw dropped i could not believe it. Every single gun i have ever wanted is in that box, because there is a MXL, and cps 2500 in there don't expect it to go for less than $400. But the strange thing is it's in Sterling Virgina, that's less than 10 miles from where i live. If i drive over there maybe i can find some good guns left in the local stores.

:cool:

I may bid, i may not bid, even if i got it for $300 i would have so many soakers that i would not know what to do with them. Just one of those would make me happy. Also this may sound stupid but i asked the seller about shipping, and he said that i lived so close that i would be better off picking them up. I am still going to take a look at the stores though. :cool:

You're pretty close to Mafo0, Tr007, Doom, and some other people. You should really get together and have some huge war or something.

Why should I not think that! Good cps guns are out there you just have to keep looking in different places. If i had gave up and did not go searching, I would never have found a cps 2100, and I would have had to buy a Flash Flood. You may think all hope is lost, but I don't.

That's only like 45 minutes away from me, I live in the DC area. About that war thing though, I may be able to host one (large forest area with paths, deer trails, stream, and big open field in the center) but I would need permission first.

This is stupid, the cps 3200 is at $52 yet no one has bid on the lot of guns. I contacted the seller about shipping and he told me $30. Since when is a 3200 worth $80. :angry:

The Soaker lot ended at $117.50 . CPS 2000 ended at around $200 with a re-selling worth of around $200, while a soaker lot with a re-selling worth of about $600 sells for $117.50. People sure don't know how to pick a good deal for bidding.

That's the best deal I have ever seen on ebay, the monster XL alone could have gone for that much! The strange thing is that the price stayed that way for atleast the last 5 hours, nobody sniped and jacked up the price at the end. :cool:
