So, I got this today.

There's a fun story aboot this, so here it is.
Back in August, a local player was quitting. He had a package of gear for sale, mostly black tac gear and gun externals. Also included in the package was an Elite Force 1911 (CO2) with 3 mags. All in all, the package cost me $125.
Over the next few weeks, I sold most of the gear/ bits off but couldn't sell the 1911. By this point, I had covered my initial investment of $125 so anything I sold after that would be profit.
I decided to open up to trades in case I could get something better/in higher demand. I was contacted by Simeon Purvis about trading his USPc for it. Little shit tried scamming me and about 5 other people. I got the gun back after confronting him and contacting his mommy. He didn't bother repacking it so I got the gun back, but beat to shit. And he stole the cheapo little laser I had with it (not that big of a deal, but it's the principle of the thing).
After getting it back, I relisted it for sale/ trade. I was contacted by another party about wanting to trade his broken MP9 for the 1911. This trade went perfectly. The MP9 needed a new disconnecter and piston. I ordered and replaced these parts then began the process of selling the MP9 off.
I couldn't sell the MP9 and was contacted by a teammate about wanting to trade his A&K M249 for it. We traded and I decided to sell the SAW since I don't need another. I once again listed a gun for sale, this time being open to trades for boneyard LM4s. I thought it was a long shot, but what the hell, worth a shot right? 4 days after listing the SAW for sale, I was contacted by a player on AP from Minnesota. He was interested in trading his slightly boneyard LM4 w/3 mags for my SAW. Since he didn't have much for the way of feedback, he offered to ship first, let me check it out and then ship out my end if I was satisfied. Well I was, so I shipped the SAW out to him.
At the end of all this, I ended up with an LM4 that I practically paid nothing for ( yes there were shipping costs involved, but selling off the majority of the gear covered those as well. All in all, I'm about $10 out of pocket).
Did I do good?
Sorry (not really) about the double post.
