I don't care about a fudgeing box + I have shipping insurance. What if his thing has XPBackfire-esquety packaging? What is more important? A BOX!!!! Or shipping insurance. You decide.

I ordered 11 CPS soakers from ebay without insurance and there never was anything lost. No one wants to steel a water gun. The point is, that if a watergun is still unopened in its original box, that means that its unused and will last very long. If a soaker is not in its original box, then of course it has been used, meaning that it was most likely used since the original retail release, shortening the time it will function.

Shipping cost is irrelevant in a soaker purchase. Its the quality of the model which determines the value. And the less a soaker is used, the less the quality decreased.

shipping insurance is included free or for less than $1 when you ship certain ways.
Also it is not that important as I have never lost anything in the mail. Be very cautious when buying a soaker that isnt NIB. It might have been damaged in some way that isnt obvious. Also, a soaker NIB will usually last much longer and condition is guarenteed. If its not NIB, you have to rely completely on the seller's description, which isnt always trustworthy.

The CPS1500/CPS1700 is highly superior in Power, Soakage, Shot Time and Tank compared to the CPS4100. And $14.99 is good shipping for a huge soaker in its original box. a lot better than paying just $19.99 for the SoakerTag 3A

Well, if anyone wants a new in box CPS 1500, I could probably get one...or two...

Ghiniflip · 05-12-2004, 12:12 PM

Spinner, I'm interested in getting two 1500s. Were you serious about being able to get them, or were you referring to the glut of fake ones we've seen lately?

Spinner · 05-12-2004, 02:09 PM

I'm serious all right. B) PM me if you want.

Ghiniflip · 05-12-2004, 05:50 PM

Er... I don't use forums, chat rooms, IM, etc. much, so I don't know what "PM" is. What is it?

What the ****!!!! It isn't a 3A. It is a good soaker. It isn't soaker tag either. It's just in that box!

EDIT: Changed the word after "What the"

Ghiniflip · 05-12-2004, 06:37 PM

Thanks, Toaster. Well, I guess I should also have asked, "How do I *do* a PM?" But I just clicked on Spinner's name and found the option for sending him an e-mail. I guess that should work.

BlueSmudge · 05-12-2004, 09:06 PM

I don't know if you guys have noticed the high bid on ebay right now for 1700 but that's my high bid. If anyone else really isn't willing to pay as much as I am for this gun, please don't drive the price up. I would do the same for you guys.

What are you talking about? Can you elaborate on "it" and "box"?

MilkMan · 05-13-2004, 06:20 AM

Box= soaker tag box

It= CPS 4100

Toaster · 05-13-2004, 05:24 PM

^ the CPS 4100 is a soaker tag gun.

that works, but to send a PM, there's a little icon on the bottom of the posts for the person you want to PM. it says PM and has a pair of little people heads.

BlueSmudge · 05-13-2004, 07:13 PM

the 4100 is not a soakertag soaker! It just comes in a soakertog box, most likely because they had overstock and they repackaged them.
