Ebay sellers that SHOULD NOT BE USED!!

if you have more people keep adding airsoft or not, don't post if you are going to talk out of your ass.

The store is called AirsoftDragon ran by 2airsoft, I bought a vest from him which I attached the pictures. The vest was ripped and I asked for a refund of my money, he did not write back for a number of days and when he did it was in broken English and did not make sense. I asked 3 times for his address for a return and he did not comply so I went to e bay and complained. He sent me this

Quote::
we sell over 50 pcs same item on ebay.all got good feetback. don't play on ebay. first time you tell me you don't want this item. secod time side item damaged . you laying. if this item no open.no break.we can full refund . if this item damaged.we can charge new one.but can't refund.

Exact word for word, no one calls me a liar and gets away with it. This guy is a cheat, a liar and sells s**t, the vest is such poor material I would be embarrassed to wear it.

There was another seller I don’t remember their name but it was like tinas27 or something, they are a UK seller who sells a lot of cheap airsoft stuff, well its cheap because its all plastic and crap. I bought a RIS from them for 90 bucks; it looked good in the picture said it was a RIS for marui, classic army, sas. I get it it’s a plastic p.o.s. for a boy airsoft gun which costs like 30 bucks. I e mail the seller no response, and I tell ebay, they did nothing. I am stuck with the pos.

You can always leave really bad feedback for the seller. That way the word would get around a lot faster. But make sure what you say is the entire truth, other wise people will just add it all up and it won't make sense to them.

Before I always make a purchase on Ebay I contact the seller directly and ask them any and all the questions about the product. Like maybe, on your r.i.s., I would have asked them if it were metal or not. That way I can always have something to fall back on. And I always keep my receipts and conversations until the product is received and I am satisfied.

And that strap on the vest looks cut to me. Not torn or the sewing coming undone. Thanks for the heads up though, that totally is a bummer about all that crap that the seller pulled.

the webing was not cut but when they sewed it up they missed and this piece was not even attached to the the side so it was just hanging loose, there are 3 more pieces like it.
I did leave him a negative comment and he left me one saying that i withdrew my payment after i got it. I dont know how to withdraw a payment so he is makign up s**t and giving me a bad name, i am not to concerned becauce his ass is grass soon.

did you pay with paypal? if you did you could probably get your money based on damaged product.

that webbing is not cut. it looks like it got ripped off the stitching. the frayed ends are too uneven to have been cut.

i have had past dealings with this guy. i bought a belt with two pistol mag pouches on it. when it came, it was missing a button, the seam was coming apart on one part of the belt. the buckles for the two pouches did not match and one was falling apart.

my dealing with him ended on a brighter note, though. i emailed him about the problem and asked what he'd do about it. he first suggested that i return the item and then he'd send another one. i emailed him back saying that it wasn't my fault he sent a damaged item. he should've known better than to send broken products - he handpacked the items. on the same email, i told him to send me a new item before i send a the first one back. three days later i got a new one and he didn't even want the first one back. i was PO'd that the first item i got was broken, but was satisfied that he sent another one. so the best feedback i would've made was a neutral so i didn't even bother making one.

i used pay pal and i filed a complaint, which he said he will offer a new product, but i dont want a new one i just want the money so i can get a better quality vest, becasue this vest even if not broken is pretty crappy. He was unwilling to do that so i esclated my claim and now its out of my hands

Airsoft Dragon is notorius for very very very sub-par quality work...


I have never seen anything offered by that guy worth a damn - sorry to hear about it - what kind of vest was it supposed to be?

Im sorry to hear that. Did you buy from them before? Cause I did hear bad things about them and would never go to them hearing on what they did.

no i did not buy from him before, the vest is this one cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayIS...osi_widget

in the picture it looks good , but when i got it the material is like that of my car cover, some cheap ass stuff and all the stiches are wrong and dont even hold the vest together.

i contacted e bay with the buyer protection thing and it said i used pay pal so it sent me right to pay pal and not e bay, i think pay pal will do a much better job then e bay.

Just so you are aware, paypal will take money back from a refund if any for a service fee. The last time I used them for a dead beat seller, they took $25.00, which was more then what I had paid for the item.

This is why I don't use airsoft repro stuff. All the gear I use is the real deal. Except for the guns that is.

eBay is sometimes a gold mine of good stuff, like what Breech pointed out. Look for items mislabeled - I managed to snake an HSGI Denali off ebay for 80 bucks....Just be educated in what you are looking for, and do a little bit of research - when in doubt, you can always ask me, and I'll help you out best I can.


Also rummage around the closeout sections of various real deal gear retailers - sometimes they let vests and other things go at insane prices simply because they're not popular in certain colors (woodland and desert camouflage gear is going for fire sale prices right now with the Army's switch to Universal Camouflage).

...for example...

Not just the chest rigs, they got a fair amount of things on clearance, some up to 70%. Packs, vests, gloves, pads, holsters and more, there's a lot for sale/clearance.
