    Default Gunbroker Ripoff Artist..

    This guy is attempting to sell a Special Weapons clone for 6k.

    http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/Vie...Item=304713636

    Just sent him a note to take HK as it's not HK out of the title, and this is the reply I get.
    Sell it for what it is..

    Looks like the item is no longer on the site.

    Girlscouts? Hmmm, I don't know... I think it's kinda dangerous to teach young girls self esteem and leadership skills.

    the listing itself is somewhat confusing, maybe because i am not into mp5's. doesnt sound like he is trying to mislead anyone.
    is your beef with him the title? if so, big deal numerous auctions and for sale items list names of things that they arent. it gets people to look.
    i really dont see a problem with it.
    when i had a 300-221 for sale, i had whisper in the title. someone like you told me to take the listing down because it was not built by jd jones.

    Sorry to go off topic here but the pic of the bottom of the grip with the metal wire catch that holds the trap door shut... Doesn't the shape of it look like HK is giving everyone the finger?!

    My beef here is he is selling a 1500$ clone for 6k, he lists "All PARTS ARE GERMAN", when clearly it was built on a special weapons reciever. At most this gun is worth 3k, but more than likely 2-2500. He is trying to list it as a legit HK, which it's not. It's illegal to mark the spine with HK now the spine can be marked with MP5-K, but it's not HK MP5-K which he clearly displays on the spine.

    People like me know what they are looking at when it comes to these, and trust me I know the price ranges they fall in, and this was an intended ripoff. I am unsure of your situation, but don't assume I one of those people, when you you admited to that you don't know much about the MP5.

    Success he changed it to reflect what it actually is. No more "all german parts", and it's listed for what it is a clone.

    Before the tool changed the heading and wording, he was intentiionally misrepresenting the cloned item
    as a legitmate HK MP5. This in and of itself is not the way to conduct business and it also represents the
    firearm community in a negative light. Do we really need to defend someone who is out to scam people of
    thier $$$ and then come back to bite us as a community in the ass.

    So go ahead and defend the guy all you want, he misrepresented his product 100% until he was "called" out on it.

    I have an AR-15 that has all the colt parts, but its labeled as a Stag that Colt made a rollmark error.
    Wanna buy it for $900 way cheaper than the real Colts or we could go $2k since its a Colt mistake that is SUPER RARE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    (Understand what IM getting at now?)
