Intentionally bought this broken M4 Jing Gong S-Series. The guy who sold it to me, stiffed me a inner barrel and a hop-up system. The M4 hop-up system sells for 490 at vincents. The Inner barrel will be my AK stock barrel sawed off.
The target value of a “stock” performing M4 that has all the necessary parts to function is 4000. Its a deal at any value less than 4000! Consider the Opportunity costs and the non-monetary factors that add to the action’s cost. An incomplete set of parts, for ever part missing calculate the Market Price of the Individual Part Against the gun. Because, after all the only way to get the gun to work is buying the parts.
So I bought this for 1500. When I calculated the parts needed to make this run independently, this deal turned out a negative.
M4/m16 Hop-up System Php490 (vincents)
Stock Inner barrel Php NA (Stock)
Hop-up Rubber/Bucking Php NA (stock)
Gear Box Frame Version 2 Php1000(vincents)
Battery small 11.1V 1200mah Php1200 (vincents)
JG 450cap M4/M16 Mag Php230
A total of 4420!
Considering that Many people who have a good conditioned M4, even at stock will sell it only for 20% less at around 5-6000. They are not even giving you the mag and battery, its actualy a really really bad deal because technically thats -400 for a replacement mag (going rate of most stores) and -1200 for a replacement battery.
I’m not giving the name of the guy who stiffed me because, its leverage in the Seller Profile Score card in FAS. He’s going to have to own up to his word because, of all honesty this kind of dealing has consequences.
Of course I have to be realistic what he can possibly give me.
By the end of the gunban I might have 2 M4s and an Mp5. An armory enough to equip a small group to join me in games. At 3-4k per additional friend I can drag to the game, my chummy nature is getting the best of me.
Planning to get some of my open minded and athletic buddies into airsoft.
