Why?

Post by Nitro123PG » Mon May 16, 2011 5:15 pm

One of the annyoing things about try to buy Super Soakers on eBay is people who bid early. The winning bid is always within the last hour, so why do people bid 4 days before it is over? All you are doing is increasing the price and making sure people like me who don't want to pay $70 for a super soaker can't get one.

Yes I agree with this, but $70? In my experiance they are more like $100+ when they arn't even in that good condition. I find this anoing too, I would love to buy some old SS guns but My budget is probaly more like $50. Though I will have to get rid of a few to buy more anyway.

It depends on the blaster. If you're bidding on a CPS 2500, that's a pretty good deal. If you're bidding on something smaller like a CPS 1000, that's ridiculous. (by the way, in my opinion, a small CPS is all you need. They have great power for their size.)

I agree, but my biggest complaint is in the varying quality. Many blasters listed as "working" end up to have numerous problems. Of course, I've also bought plenty of guns in mint condition as well. It is what it is.

I think this is a general trend with eBay. That's just the nature of the system.
