I'm new to paintball. I'm currently looking to buy a micromag. I have an offer on this gun for $150. Seller says it is level 10 bolt and retro valve. Just looking to get some more info and see if this is a good deal. Thanks.

$150, wow the lvl 10 and the Retro valve are worth close to $125. That's a great deal :dance: :dance:

Bite both his hands off and don't look back! The Retro valve's almost worth paying that for on it's own!

I'm doing this on pbnation and now he seems kinda sketchy so maybe I won't be getting this great deal

The way I figure it...

Intelliframe = $60
Boomstick = $40
Expansion Chamber = $20
Micromag body = $100ish? (I've never bought one)
retro valve w/ LX = $125

So yeah, $150 is one heck of a deal. He could ask for twice that much. (Don't tell him that. :ninja: )

Course, if it sounds too good to be true, it just might be. (You never know with kids on the nation, though.) Just be really careful, and if the deal goes through, demand insurance, delivery confirmation... the whole shabang. You're getting such a good deal, you can afford the little extra expense for peace of mind.

You may have to change O rings on it and do general maintenance on it but there is very little that they could have done to seriously mess it up. Looks like a good deal. Unless the seller intends to grab your money and run, this should be a real good deal.

Like the others have said the valve should be worth 125
the micro body around 100
the intelliframe 60
plus the other items should put this in at about 300

:D Looks like rawbutter and I are on the same page on this

He agreed to half payment upfront and half after. I'll for sure want tracking number and insurance. If this does end up badly at least I'm only out $75 now instead of $150. Keep your fingers crossed for me ;) Oh and by the way I am debating on what barrel i should buy for this once I get it any suggestions? I strictly play scenario/woodsball if that makes a difference
