otherrandomhero Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 I recently came across this. It is the KJW MK1 gas gun, for $40. I had to blink a few times and shake my head before looking again, but this really was only $40. I have heard the Mk1 is a pretty good gun, and have seen it for around $70 but this is almost half that. I just bought a CA36 with stuff for it and a KJW M93 but would this be worth getting? I usually don't get things just because they're cheap but holy ****, this is one hell of a deal. Link to post Share on other sites

Octopus Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 I'm a little confused by that site. Its an American site, so why do all the prices seem to have British Pound Sterling marks ( £ ) in front of them?? US Dollars is a $. Is it someone at the site who can't handle the complexity of different currency symbols, and all the guns are in Dollars with the wrong symbol.... ... or, are they all in British Sterling for some bizarre reason. £39.99 is about $73.50. Wrong currency or stupidly cheap price..... hmmmmm.. either way, I don't trust it. Link to post Share on other sites
The_Butchers_Wife Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Well I'll think that Octopus may have right. it's something funny whit that site. But if you feel that you are abel to trust the site and really will have that gun, well whats stops you. Link to post Share on other sites
morpcat Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 Prices for AEGs are way above what you'd expect to pay for them in pounds. Their address is in Ohio, so I'd say it's a safe bet that they mean USD not GBP. In anycase, getting the currency wrong is quite dodgy, if you were going to buy anything from them I'd suggest contacting them first. Edit: And it's not like you don't have time to, they're out of stock for the next few days! Link to post Share on other sites
machgo Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 When I go on there all the money signs are "$." Maybe depends on where you access the sight from? Anyway, I've found their prices to be quite high on the better products..... Link to post Share on other sites
Marine47 Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 all prices are in $'s for me. Link to post Share on other sites

Anyway, I've found their prices to be quite high on the better products..... <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I'm seeing pound signs, which seems odd. If the site is detecting where you are, then why am I not seeing Euro's ( € )? Another theory could be to do with whether your copy of Windows is in American English or Real English (As all the Americans say they see $'s), but mines in neither. My computers default laguage is Finnish, yet I see £'s. First I thought that site was weird. Now I think it doubly so. The twilight zone currency site!! Link to post Share on other sites
Basho Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 I see $ in the general descriptions and £ in the detailed. This is a bug. As to the price, well. I would ring them rather than order over the web. Basho Link to post Share on other sites
tiksom Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 £££££££ for me zł for me It seems that the site tries to be "smart" and presents you with a currency symbol that corresponds to your browser's "country" setting. I see Polish "zł" even when I am connecting to the network via US or other countries than Poland. The stupid thing is that only the currency symbol changes, not the amount. Silly programmer... I see 39.99zł (PLN), which is ~13$ (USD). Link to post Share on other sites
Octopus Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 How come I get the £ sign, though?? If it is changing the currency symbol, based on the computers language settings, I should see a Euro. Link to post Share on other sites
tiksom Posted July 13, 2006 Report Share Posted July 13, 2006 How come I get the £ sign, though?? If it is changing the currency symbol, based on the computers language settings, I should see a Euro. No, it's not computer's setting, it's browser's setting. I've changed the language to Finnish and this site shows me EUR. If you use Mozilla, go to Edit/Preferences, then Navigator/Languages, and check what language you have configured here. As you see GBP symbol, it is probably "English [en]".
