Ebay-High Pressure 30MPa Air Compressor System 228.12 free shipping

Still something fishy going on though, of course there is this: 



So topsee.666 is the one asking for more ransom money and topsee.666 is posting reviews for this compressor listed in this thread's auction...

[Bizill]

Unless Ebay knows this is somehow the same item and is allowing reviews from various sellers.  Weird if so as there are only 6 reviews...am I missing something?

[Bizill]

When I check reviews from other higher priced sellers the reviews show as sold by that seller for that particular auction.

[Bizill]

No, possible false alarm.  Looked at a few other items not pertaining to compressors and in the reviews section there are reviews from multiple sellers.

I just purchased one for $225.  I made a "Best Offer" of $200 which was turned down, then I offered $225 on one that was listed for $260 and he accepted it.  If this is not what it is represented then I will return it!  Pay-pal and Ebay are good about backing products. But for $225 I will take a chance.  I will let you know how it turns out.  This is water cooled where you'll have to submerge the water pump (included) in a bucket of water. So you will have to supply your own bucket and the compressor oil. I hope it works out I have three scuba tanks and they are only $6.00 a tank per fill. so I will have to fill the tanks 37 times to break even.  But as you know I really only need to fill from about 2800 to 3100 PSI. I could have never justified spending much more.

Congrats!  Funny thing is, his compressor up for auction is already at $228 with a little over an hour before it ends.  Those folks could have made and offer and saved a couple bucks!

The closest dive shop to me charges $10 a fill for my small 90ci tank, so I only have to fill it 20 times and I'll break even.  And since it will only fill my Marauder 7 times, I should see a return on my investment pretty quickly!  That is if it actually shows up...

You'll save time and gas money too!

It's 90 miles round trip to my local shop + $6 fill....

So using IRS mileage rates:

.535 x 90 = $48.15 +$6 =$54.15 per fill.   $228/$54.15 ~4.2 fills. 

Money isn't even the driving force... it's the hassle factor and wanting to up the power on several rifles along with adding a quarter bore at some point, and as Avator said, freedom is worth something.

I think the names on the left written in blue are the buyers names. The names under the reviews are the sellers. It says "sold by:" just to the left of topsee.666 . I recognize the other seller "lampseller". He sells the same compressors.

Not to say I'm still not a little skeptical, myself!

The biggest load off was not having to plan....
Since I first began driving way back when (Flintstone mobiles) I was always up for a road trip. Not much has changed. Other than it's better on a Harley. So it's not actually the trip that was bothersome. Mr. George charged me $5 a fill, $12 for a vis (fill included) and $24 for a hydro (fill included) so obviously, the cost wasn't the issue. The issue was the planning. Insuring there was air in the tanks for the weekend festivities. Is there enough air to finish this tune? And of course.... That's a 36" whip.. I wonder how many fills I am wasting over the course of a tank? All that is GONE !!!

LMBO.... Nailed it Bill. I was pricing microbore hoses just to save that little bit....

No ship notice yet, though my CC has been charged by PayPal. Usually, the CC isn't charged until the item is shipped, not sure what to think. We had a scam on Mitutoyo calipers here a while back, luckily the money was refunded but it was a bit of a hassle to get the refund. Hoping this deal is legit.....

[Buldawg76]

Sorry guys I was sick yesterday so could not get out to try to find the oil locally. I had no luck today after searching everywhere local. I just ordered a half gallon of the Chemlube 751 so will be waiting for it to arrive to fire it up and test it out. having it sent priority mail so hopefully will have it early next week.

I have not received any confirmation on the shipping as yet.  But Ebay and Pay-pal is great with that.  If the item doesn't show or is not represented accurately they will refund your $. I will keep you updated if and when they confirm shipping.

The original listing has ended and he has them resisted for $325.  It says 40 sold and today is day 5 from when I placed my order.  If I don't have a shipping notification by tomorrow, I'll be contacting the seller to ask why...

I'm right there with you Paul... Just passed the 5 day mark for me also... Will be really interesting to see what comes of this.

With so many sold that ebay listing is really deceiving if this is a scam:



I emailed him yesterday, got the canned response of late shipment so they will make it up with expedited shipping... blah blah blah.

[Norm_m]

Yes I go the same response when I contacted them asking if and when would mine ship. Also if I would get a tracking #

We'll see what takes place

  I offered 201.81 and was accepted...I was looking around at other compressors and seen same one on amazon,just for kicks I put it in my cart and thought what the heck I go to  check out to find out my 3% cash back was almost $200.00 and couldn't resist buying it under $200.00 off amozon.now I have bought two.if the e-bay seller doesn't ship real soon I may cancel that order.
