americanidiot748 · 09-05-2012, 03:54 PM

i just recieved a eXTCy in a trade but i'm kinda strapped for cash what would be a good value to sell it for? its BNIB, but idk what its worth because there isnt any for sale in the BST...what do you think would be a good price to put on it?

chowser2 · 09-05-2012, 10:05 PM

americanidiot748 · 09-06-2012, 06:53 AM

lol, i was going to ask 175, that helps alot!

If its bnib and never even been shot, then sell it for 225 shipped. Definitely dont go lower than 200$. This gun is costs 250$ brand new so why would you sell it for so much less when you its still brand new?

chowser2 · 09-06-2012, 11:18 AM

I tried to sell mine early last month. Used a few times with qev installed. 220 and I got no offers on it

americanidiot748 · 09-06-2012, 12:59 PM

this is Brand New in Box never been shot but i would never get 225 for it, thats not how things work around the PBN B/S/T, i'll be lucky if i dont get a TON of lowballs at the price of 200...but i got hope i'll sell it!

Danny96211 · 09-06-2012, 02:40 PM

yea i know, this is pbn b/s/t and people love to lowball and then go sell there used products for a price 5 dollars lower than if it were brand new. I see it happen all the time, go look at the air systems forum for example. But im telling you, dont sell that thing for a dime lower than 200$. You could probably get 225$ for it at best. But most likely you will get 200$, and if you do get that much, make sure you tell the person to add $ to cover shipping. Thats what i would do.

I would love to buy that extcy off of you, but i dont have the money :/ I'll trade you my barely used lnib envy and cash! im serious! hahaha

americanidiot748 · 09-06-2012, 03:35 PM

ha ha, thanks for the help man, but i really need cash, lol

Danny96211 · 09-06-2012, 03:37 PM

Good luck selling it! And remember, dont sell it to the first lowballer that makes an offer!

My friend will be in the market for an entry level electro marker soon so I've been researching a bit lately. $200 seems to be a fair price, I wouldn't go any lower than that if I were you.

backwoodspball · 09-06-2012, 08:24 PM

I paid 225 brand new for mine on ebay when they first came out. If you really need the cash 175-200 would be a great deal for someone. But I wouldnt go lower than 175. Shipping will cost you 10-20bucks.

Your not gonna get 225 for it though, since someone will simply order it from a dealer for that.

people offer trades, 100-130bucks... just ignore them!

Make sure you use it first so you don't have to pay for Gold Ups.

americanidiot748 · 09-06-2012, 09:54 PM

Idk I just dropped a battery in it and I'm liking it, not more then the shocker but is there a way to take the magnet out?

edit: Looks like shes up on the Nation after all! anyways thanks for the help guys!!!

Danny96211 · 09-07-2012, 07:04 AM

I think the screw that's under the trigger is magnetic actually. So you would have to take that screw out and replace it with a regular screw. I could be wrong though. Why do you want to get rid of the magnet?

americanidiot748 · 09-07-2012, 08:13 AM

its way to stiff, plus its kinda sloppy

It's basically a re-vamped Ion and Ions don't get more then 100.00 these days. No matter what you paid for it, what you have into it Ions are a dime a dozen now. You'll be lucky to get 150.00 for it, but hey, there's always craigslist.

well, its not "basically an Ion" its basically an Ion XE, lol! but thats just slitting hairs, and i didnt pay for it i got it in a trade, i understand its 250 new but i didnt know what the resale value was since i havent seen one on the nation yet...at all!

He wont be lucky if he gets 150 for it... im sorry, but you dont know what your talking about. Ive seen used envys go for 170 and those cost 200$ brand new. You could easily get 220 for an extcy, especially if its BRAND NEW. its a great gun and it came out in 2011. The ion made its debut in 2005 so its older. The extcy is basically a newer and improved ion. Better looking in my opinion too. Why would anyone in there right mind sell their brand new gun for 100$ less than the retail price? I sure as hell wouldnt.

Actually, I have been playing/buying/selling paintball equipment for over 20 years, so yeah, I do know what I'm talking about.

Never said it wasn't a great gun. But everyone who has played paintball knows it's just another Ion and guess what else, everyone has moved on past Ions now, only sponsored players and noobs own them now.

You'll never get what you paid for it, because people will buy something else before they buy another Re-Packaged Ion. I have owned many Smart Parts guns in the past, including an Ion, great guns, but if I have 250.00 I'm going to pick up a used Axe or ETEK-3, not an Ion. Just picked up an Epiphany three days ago, basically an all metal Ion. Just in case you don't know what an Epiphany is, heres a pic:

Same exact one I got, sold for 300.00 new, got it and a tank for 75.00 bucks

Danny96211 · 09-09-2012, 10:40 PM

So your basically saying that all people who use envys, extcys, and g1's are either noobs or sponsored? Since you said the extcy is basically a revamped ion (witch it is) and that all people who use ions are noobs or sponsored. Do you have any idea how ignorant you sound right now? Just because someone shoots a "low end" spool valve marker doesnt make them a noob... The extcy, envy, and g1 are all great guns, especially for the price. An extcy can easily compete with some of the high end guns out there. Sure, it may not have all the bells and whistles, but it shoots amazing! I shoot an envy. I may only play rec ball but im definitely not a "noob". Please think before you speak next time.
