Yeah, it ends up promoting the people who lie for public benefit. (Insert puns about current and former presidents here. :p )

Okay now this is getting ridiculous. I mean really, a super charger power pak for $500?

That is over the top, even for a relatively rare gun in good condition.

That's ridiculous. Do they honestly think that's worth $500? I don't think even a NIB CPS 2000 Mk1 is worth that much.

Looks like a record breaker we have there.

I think anyone who's even browsed through any of SSC's homemade forums at least has a rough idea of what you can build with $500.

WOW, do people even expect a sale? What's the point to sell a stock water gun for $500?!

I'll be unloading some big CPS's later in May and early June...they start at 99 cents. Price gougers can got to hell.

I'll be keeping an eye on those, though it's unlikely I'll have more money to spend on water guns. I guess it'll also depend on how well our water wars go.

That said, I myself am fairly cheap when it comes to buying blasters, though the problem is mostly budget. Specifically, I want to get a CPS 2500 at this point but I can't offer more than $50-$60 or so for one. (I can however, guarantee whoever I buy it off of that I'll do everything I can to keep the blaster in working condition as I have to all my other blasters.)

2 CPS 1000s for $90 isn't horribly overpriced. They're worth around $30, and $45 isn't too much more.

The Bottle Blitz one isn't rediculously crazy. That's only about four times overpriced, but the one I posted above is over 10 times overpriced.

Well martianshark, looks like that holds the record for most overpriced water gun. If we see anything worse, then the economy will be back on its feet.
