Airsoft Club review written by SEB (airsoftswitzerland@hotmail.com)- Friday, 04 April 2003

First of all, I beg you to not be too sharp with my English, because it's not my first language (French-German). Well, I gonna try to write clearly. 

Okay, so, in my country (Switzerland), we can say that there is no Airsoft retailers (in fact, if you want to buy airsoft In a shop, you are quiet obliged to take a kwc [very expensive gun], which is distributed by 3 PYLONES). The only solution is to buy AEG's from other countries. When I was younger, I thought that it was not possible to buy them directly from Japan or HK, so I used to buy secondhand products. I did my first order 2 years ago, but went to the less expensive site, which was from a Japanese retailer, and probably the worst experience I had. After many orders, last year I found this pretty attractive site : AirsoftClub 

It had only been online for a month or so at this point.

The look of the site was so good, that automatically I put it into my favourites…After have read it, I found that more than a retailer site, it was a "news" site and "event" site too. They write review about customs guns and special events, always trying to innovate etc…

First contact: Well, I had to know something about a kit (msg90 at this time…), that they did not advertise . I get the answer ~30 minutes later…..Wow I said to myself quiet fast, further more when you know that a lot of other retailers do not answer you fast, or do not answer you at all. I asked him other questions and he answer me every times, precise, friendly answers. I did not buy anything at this moment, because I was saving money to go to Vietnam, Cambodia & finally, Hong Kong. But the guys (Algin; Dom&Eagle) were always very polite; very nice and accurate.

HONG KONG Houa!!!

It was really nice, all these shops and everything. Just before arriving HK, I mail Algin, because I wanted to find an inexpensive hotel, which is a pretty hard work in HK. The guy pick me up at the airport, find an hotel and show me the streets, retailers and every things really cool in HK (even made it to a wargame out there).

Orders: At home, I wanted to make a order. To see if AirsoftClub was reliable, I ask my friend to make a order in his name not mine, for me. He did it by Visa card (not paypal, normally visa=slowest…) So I order an infinity 4'3", one p90 with magazine 70 more, and a raging bull long version 8mm. I got an AIrsoftClub t-shirt too.

One week later everything was at home (6 days with Visa, from the moment that I put my shopping cart in the web….pretty fast!). 

What is really cool is that :

1 They are cheaper than every other website on most of their products.
2 They have an automatic post's taxes count, which make you earn 1 day (at least).
3 They have the WIDEST CHOICE OF CUSTOM GUN, in all the net (m14 are their custom).
4 They have second hand* products (for poor students like me :D)
5 They reply you fast, precise and friendly.
6 They accept visa card. 

*I did not buy any second hand products at this point yet.

In fact they are for me the best retailer on all the web. The only "less good" (I can not say bad, it would be lying) point, the tracking order is not really "at point" (French expression), I mean the best.

Since the first order, I did many others. For me and my team. Always perfect. Now wont pass with any body else. And if they do not have the piece I need, I show it on other website and they sell me it less expensive than the website where I found it.

HOUA!          HOUA!             YES SIR!
