WAY too good to be true. Keep your money in your pocket.

Price seems too good to be true. Have not heard of this site or company but they seem to be a general importer as they are selling a lot of unrelated items.

The product description seems to have been translated from a foreign language or written by a non-native English speaker.

No way in hell is this legitimate. IF the tank is actually up to specs it is listed at 1/6th it’s proper cost. I took off for it being 2 years old. STAY AWAY

$70 for a 6.8l Cf tank is scam. Cheapest one are the acecare 6.8l tank on ebay. Brand new for $250. So there is no way a 6.8l Cf tank is $70. Must be out of its 15 year life.

I have a feeling that the ad is legit. but misleading and only refers to the valve. I've seen this type of thing before on eBay. It will probably be made clear at the checkout. I may be wrong but it's a pretty common practice. Usually, a price like that requires more investigation before laying out the readies.

I took a swing at it. Took screenshots along the way when I have to file paypal dispute..

Let us know how it went! Please

If so I thought that they had extended the life of these carbon fiber tanks another 15 years and China knows nothing about ! So that’s why it’s so cheap?????

I am new to the game. First pcp on its way. However in my search for all things air gun I have come across 3 other web sites like this one. Each had it's own name. However all were 'fashion', with a $100 compressor?

All seem to have the same web designer, very simple colors and same layout. Each has a different street address in China (if it's real?) But all have a Gmail email. All are new in the past few months.

I hope you get your tank without a hassle. But I am wondering if it is a new scam against silly Americans. Spend enough to set up a web store, keep the profits for nonexistent or wrong product. Them move on to your next project.

Some legitimate air gun dealers have never showed in my many Google searches. I learn of them from you guys in these forums. Yet new sites that have no user comments show up? Seems like chumming the water to catch us deal hunters.

I would love to be wrong. A $100 compressor would be a lovely way to start my pcp obsession.

It shows shipped. We will see.

 

[bluemoon_wulf]

Viperjoe, any word on your shipment?

The small items I have gotten from China usually less than a month.

 

[Str8tshooter]

Opps, responded to wrong thread.

I have just ordered my first PCP, an Air Venturi 22 cal. It will not be here for a month and I am trying to decide if a tank is preferable to a compressor, and how many fills can I get out of a 75 cubic ft tank. the compressor I am looking at is the Air Venturi Trailcharger. Any advice or opinions would be much appreciated for this newbie.

Shows shipped means nothing. I recently bought an item on flee bay, showed shipped, all of us were scammed. Fortunately flee bay’s guarantee refunded everyone’s money. Yes i thought I was getting a deal, but recently with the supply chain situation, good deals are rare and all kinds of scammers. I hope I am wrong here, but recently I paid for an Omega 6.8L with 2 gauges and bleed valve. Mine was $700 and it is great tank.

YMMV
