Wow...I guess no one wants an SFL Emag anymore.

[rdb123]

Wow this is odd. I've been trying to sell my SFL Emag for over a week now here on AO and no offers. I've also noticed other sellers such as ntn and Random have had no substantial offers either. Has interest in SFL Emags waned???

This is great. I've got a 1300 dollar backup backup gun sitting under my bed collecting dust. =\

That sucks man, good luck on the sale.

1300 is too much for an emag IMO, even if it's super duper.. heck, I think 1300 is too much for an xmag too!

[Creative Mayhem]

If I had the money, I would buy your's, NTN's, and Random's. Alas, I don't. Sorry

[NJPaint]

well, its a lot of money to fork out. The higher the value of the gun, the lower the number of possible buyers. I'd put up more ads... pbn... ebay even. I'm working up to buying myself an SFL or X-mag, and I know a lot of people that are in the same boat as me. When I have the cash and am secure enough to buy it, I'll see whats availible, till then I just gotta watch them go on and off the market.

i agree

[RT pRo AuToMaG]

you'd probably be better off trading it. most people have more money in their gear then they do cash.

I agree,
your best bet is to trade for 13-1400 worth of gear and then sell those smaller peices on eaby or pbn. get with me if you want to trade the sfl for some gear you can easliy sell..

I think the X-mag killed the resale of the SFL's. I've seen used X-mags go for around 1000. Since X-mags are pretty much identical to SFL's the only way you could sell a SFL for 1300 would be to someone who would fork over the extra money for it's rarity.

[barberjohn]

well, xmags may have hurt the price of sfl's, but they are still much more rare than any other emag out there, that is what makes them so expensive.

I hate to say it, bur rariety in paintball gear is a joke. I would say that most people do not care to spend an extra 200 - 300 on a "rare" marker, that they will probably keep for a couple of months, then trade/sell. If some one was investing in it, OK, but this is not an investment, it is a tool to play a sport.

Two years ago I would have spent 1300 on a used SFL, but I wouldn't even think about it now. I bought my X-mag new in box with both breeches for 1300.

I'm building my Karta E-mag for less then 1300, and it will look better then the SFL, and perform exactly the same.

Deadlywind ...with their Karta and Dallara ....have nailed it. I feel the Karta is far better in looks to an SFL and an Xmag.

I'll give you my '03 WASed Viking for it. Otherwise - I'd use the same cash on an X - I've seen 3 of them in the last week. Sorry about how things turned out.

There just isnt enough demand.

I don't think this is true. I'm sure someone would pay 1300 for a new Shocktech E-mag.

thats a fare trade. a 900 dollar gun for a 1400?

[Fred]

I think you're just asking too much, like most people selling used gear.

Yeah, its still in good shape, but how many shots have you put through it? Probably a lot more than I ever would if I owned it for twice as long.

Personally, I really like the SFL milling a lot more than the Xmag and Dallara... but wouldn't pay that much for a used one.
