Re: The eBay Scambuster Topic
Why do eBay think that's a good idea? You'd probably be asked to leave a physical auction house if you showed up wearing a mask.

Re: The eBay Scambuster Topic
hmm. I wonder if it is any good?
Pessimist: These blasters hold no water
Optimist: But their small output means they last just as long
Marketing: Huge blasts of water!
user: I shot it at an angle and it went a whole ten feet!

Re: The eBay Scambuster Topic
I do not think so. It may beat some XPs but that is all. I got one, it uses a double-stream but neither powerful nor good range or soakage. Lost money to my mind.

Supposively someone's selling a NIB MXL. Thing is, they stole the picture and description from iSoaker. And they claimed it to be an original MXL, but the picture shows the 2002 version. Not only that, they claim it's the most powerful water gun ever made.

"PERFECT GIFT BEFORE CHRISTMAS HURRY!!!"
(Yes, because people prepare their gifts for the holidays 9 months in advance.)
I think that description was stolen from another description that was stolen from iSoaker.

Re: The eBay Scambuster Topic
Do they even read the stolen description before they use it?

Re: The eBay Scambuster Topic
I know some people who just see how many bids there are, and if there are very few, something is probably up.

Up on eBay is an arctic shock. The seller says that it is CPS. He even goes and describes CPS tech. Please report this auction

Re: The eBay Scambuster Topic
That's actually just a person trying to make use of the two seconds of information that he found with a google search instead of asking the questions to understand what he's talking about. While negligent, I wouldn't think that he was knowingly lying, just ignorant. You might want to point him to a link that shows how the arctic shock works, or the principles behind ap guns.Captaing wrote:Up on eBay is an arctic shock. The seller says that it is CPS.

I reject your reality and substitute my own.

And again with a Gorgon. He says it is Hydro Power. And he is selling it for 3-4 times retail, when it is currently availible. If it was HP, though, might be nice, but I highly doubt it.
