I don't care what's described.. I won't even bother with a sale thread that has no pictures. IMO is pretty arrogant for a seller to think what they have is SO awesome you'll PM them begging for pictures. Got news for sellers like that: pleanty more where that came from. If you can't be bothered to post a pic or two, I can't be bothered to ask you for them. Airsoft in Canada is more of a buyers market now than it's ever been. I'm not going to waist my time with sellers that make it harder for me to buy their stuff.

The ASC classifieds is seriously degrading into a big fucking joke. I'm at the point now where any gun I buy on the classifieds has to be BNIB and from a VERY ruputable member or retailer.

Now I'll admit, I've misued the FMU acronym thinking it meant "full metal unit". However, I've also completely described every item I've sold making it perfectly clear what's metal and what isn't. I haven't got any complaints. However I'll make sure I use the term correctly from now on.
