ML Roak 0 Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 Sounds like he is selling beta test drums. Nice. I'll wait in line like everybody else. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bvamp 604 Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 3 betas? no, I dont think so. This drum is NOT the same as the beta that was tested at the "florida saiga shootout" on march 1st 2008. This is new production. It is probably one of the buyers that is recouping some money off a large order from Mike. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

waltham_41 52 Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 The US is not backwards on the clear cover. Were they not backwards on the betas? Also, he says comes with factory instructions. Sound like new run to me. Funny that all 3 of the auctions are at $305 at the same time when they all started at a buck.

jrance@iacwds.com 716 Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 These were not from the 15 prototype run. These were from one of the test runs Mike made and then were fitted with the improvements of the current production models. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rotortuner 0 Posted September 12, 2008 Report Share Posted September 12, 2008 The current model has a different body for the increased strength, do these have the current heavier body? Mike probably told the guy to list em to see what they will innitialy draw on there. CJG Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Much like the stock guns going for 800.00 in a drought edit: spelling stock not sock gun Edited September 14, 2008 by madmax4x4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bvamp 604 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 LOL thats too funny. Mike is going to up his price if that keeps up. Better buy them direct now, is my advice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cain Marko 10 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Looks like you can get the Drum WITH a Tromix Saiga 12 for only 930.00 more than what these guys want for the drum... http://www.atlanticfirearms.com/beta/storeproduct659.aspx Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bobotech 3 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 LOL thats too funny. Mike is going to up his price if that keeps up. Better buy them direct now, is my advice. Might not be entirely true. There will always be someone out there that has to have XYZ no matter the cost. those are the guys paying 450 dollars for 230 dollar drums. They just have to impress people at the range no matter what. They are the ones keeping the price on gunbroker high. How many drums are for sale right now on GB? 5? I just checked, looks like 4. None of them have any bids and they are started at 399. The guys that bought them at 400+ just had to have them but there probably isn't that many out there willing to pay that much. I want a drum badly. Am I willing to pay 400 bux for one, NO way!! Maybe 250 but no way on 300-400. Just because there are 20-40 people out there willing to pay 400 dollars for a drum that normally sells for 230 dolllars doesn't mean that the market will normally support a 400 dollar retail price on the drums. I think that the quick profit taking on the drums will be slowing down. Now its just time to wait for the second run. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
waltham_41 52 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 Thats how I see it too bobotech. If a person is going to make a killing on those drums they better do it now before Mike gets them into normal production. Hell, if the price would stay up that high, Mike would be kinda foolish to not sell his only on GB for that price! Money is money after all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Juggernaut 11,054 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 ya never know... the seller is from Ohio...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MikeD 541 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 It's not me selling them on gunbroker. I wish I could, but just can't. I did sell a lot of AGP mags there and ebay when they first came out ( and made damn good money) and other hard to get items but it wouldn't be right if I sold my own product in this manner. Especially while people are waiting for their orders to ship. I did know and predict the drums would do this though and have encourged many that they sell them on there and make a little extra cash. I think the first run customers that have put up their money on this project, some for as long as a year, deserve every cent they can get from them. Early sellers should see a large investment return percentage. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

mscottrogers 56 Posted September 16, 2008 Report Share Posted September 16, 2008 My cash is tight right now and have 2 awaiting my shipping number. I'm in the low 1000's for mikes order number. I still don't think I could part with them and reinvest. I would like to but 1 in the hand is worth 2 in the bush so to speak. Maybe if I wear them out in the first week or so I could try to sell them. kidding I bet it would take at least 3 weeks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
