A few, basic rules, tips and tidbits for selling or buying items here
An Item is worth what someone is willing to put cold hard cash in your hands for. You can list every single internal part and all the work done to it. You can list a rare and hard to find item. But the honest truth is that your item is worth what someone is willing to give you actual money for.
Cash is, and always will be king for trading or buying airsoft goods.
If you need to pay for something using digital methods, only use payment methods that have buyer and seller protections. Paypal and Venmo both have these available. If someone refuses to use these protections and demand you send the money via "friends and family" STOP. You are being scammed.. Immediately DM an admin.
Be willing to drive to meet someone. Shipping airsoft guns sucks. Use places like UBG or Advanced Action and avoid handing your fake firearms to someone in public.
If you're uncomfortable with a deal, don't be afraid to ask for someone to vouch for the person.
-----
Always post an asking price
If asking for trades, list the things you're willing to accept in trades
Always post places you're willing to meet up, or how far you're willing to drive. (Or if you're willing to ship!)
Always post pictures! Use a timestamp to avoid scammers (Put a piece of paper with your username and the date with your pictures)
Never post your phone number or email. Posts with either will be deleted with prejudice. This is how you get scammed.
