 Topic: Thread moved: Advice neededPosted: 17 July 2008 at 8:40pm |

I was told to move my thread here so I did :o
I have the following Items: Tippmann 98 custom A.C.T with: Response Trigger Cyclone feed system 20 Oz Co2 Flatline barrel 14 inch J&J Ceramic barrel I was wondering if anyone could tell me the best website to try to get as close to retail value as possible. I'm moving on to a diffirent setup (tournament friendly speedball gun). All of it is brand new which kinda sucks because I put so much labor into making the upgrades work really nicely. Also if anyone is really savvy about this sort of thing, do you think I could get close to retail on ebay or some place like that?? |

You can't even get close to retail by selling a used tippmann. Sorry but the resale value is terrible.
Ebay will probably get you the highest amount of cash but that is before their rediculous final value fees. You have to also be willing to accept that crappy sales do happen. Pbnation.com is safer and has trades (so you can get some gear). Your best bet is there. |

Thanks for your help. =)
So your thinking maybe half the value? I think I bought all that gear (including the remote line) for about 400-450. Edited by Aegaris42 - 17 July 2008 at 9:07pm |

You're better off selling the stuff separately instead of a package deal. You're apt to get more money that way.

Ebay is probably your best bet. PB Nation and McCarter Brown have sections as well, but I find buyers there are more savvy and tend to know what things are worth used and you get less return. |

Yeah half if you're lucky unfortunately. Best to part it out as I said in your other thread. |

Yep, if you really wanna sell it part it out, but my best advice at this point is keep it.
