    Got this from tokyo hobby.net.
    2 questions...
    (1)Is it any good for a skirmish and and is there a review anywhere?
    (2)Do you get caught on vat,customs duty etc? and how long do they take to process the order?
    all help appreciated.

    1: Yes, it most definitely should be, though a longer barrel would be nice for larger spaces as at the moment there are no CQB(close quarters battle) sites in the republic.

    2. Hit and miss. How much is it including shipping?

    RC car fanatic have you actually recieved this order yet?

    I ask as tokyo hobby are infamous in the airsoft world as the biggest scam operation going.
    There are several threads on arnies airsoft forum about how people order and never hear from them again.

    Arnies Thread 2

    The owner of the site seems to run several different airsoft retail sites none of witch are reliable.
    If you have recieved your order than you are in a minority of pleased customers.

    Whats that.... €170 so and a possible 21% VAT and then Duty aswell. I'd buy local next time

    As of the site, never heard of them but they sound dodgy to say the least.

    well you can always get paypal involved to recover your funds...a pain in the clackers no doubt, but you wont have lost your cash...but you might have to wait to see do they send it...

    and if its off your credit card on paypal apparently you can go that route as well and cancel the transaction. I seem to remember Someone here on the board had to do the nasty with paypal....personally thank God i have never had to...

    good luck, let us know how you get on...

    Maybe we should start putting together a black list? Any others to add to it other than Tokyo Hobby?

    why the hell are airsoft global so expensive? they have nice stuff but for instance they are charging $540 for a P90TR (with large Mag) versus $240 on uncompany. whatever bolt-on they stick on they are not worth that

    there not expensive,i bought a ca m4 sportsline there and it was $108-thats something like €80 and the only p90 for around 540-550 is a custom one.Not just the gun itself and a big mag but a railed foregrip,battery,silencer and grip.

    im shore thats some strange custom version, i think with the massive magazine thing on :P , i;ve always found airsoftglobal to be competitive and great service.

    They claim the dragunov on their site is a TM, but its a JG and they charge 270 for it.
