foot, what's you're expert opinion on the fault and would you give us an estimate of the repair price please if you're able?
please graveyard.

refund wise due to work situation looking honestly about a month mainly due to my income.
as for my assumption im sure many people would make the same seeing the posts on this sale thread and bojjob's along with on the same day you ask for refund on these two demons you also list for sale alot of VG spares does give the view that your no longer intereted in owning VG's
as for the surprising leak with my marker can only assume its something thats happened in transit or in the three dyas before being aired up, only think that due to it left my possession with no leaks, after recording the video the marker was pictured for the thread and placed in its box, it was then aired up saturday morning and had no leaks, early afternoon i dropped it off with foot who told me you had asked him to give the marker a check over before being sent to you. now being that foot is a full vanguard tech im sure hes not the kind of person so post on a faulty marker after being asked to check it over. it had been fully serviced by him only two weeks before as stated in the original post also.
threads explaining marker sevicing can make things out to be harder than they are, from this VG video (think all of these service videos including this one are on the dvd-rom that came with the marker)
doesnt look that hard to me, from the looks of it it could jus be one of the orings on the QEV, transfer plus, solenoid gasket or one of the oring one the transfer plugs on the end of the manifold. and from the looks of your for sale thread youve already got all all the spare to do it, and if what was mentioned to me earlier that you could have blown the qev/diaphram using a high pressure reg, changing tank would not sole the problem if the diaphram was dislodge or an oring split.
surely if youve had various markers in your time paintballing surely you'd be able to do some maintainence on a marker especially when the company has provided a dvd with all the nessessary video's on??

I would be more than happy to fix the leak for either Rexy or LMS for free to get this resolved.
I beleve it to be the diaphragm thats failed, and wont take too long to sort out.
Dave that's very kind of you, thanks.

I suggest you arrange shipping costs to be split between you, it's only my suggestion but I believe it's the fairest way to resolve this thanks to foot's kindness.

im happy to split postage for it to be sent to foot. if its easyier as i've no spare money til friday 15th if Love Me Sexy pays postage to foot i'll pay for it to be returned??
Right, I'm happy to do that.
Who should I ship the gun to - Foot or Rexy? I'll include the spares kit I have.
I'll cover the outgoing post if Rexy covers the return post.
As an aside, I used the same two tanks on the other Demon I bought, and they didn't cause the QEV to fail on that gun.
I'm reluctant to try and fix it myself as I had a bad experience with a silver Creed I bought on here.
If I tried fixing the Demon myself, I could lay myself open to allegations of making the fault worse or causing another fault,
As I said earlier, I bought 4 guns last week - the 2 eclipse guns worked, the 2 vanguard guns didn't.
Is it too much to expect to receive a fully working gun?

if you send it direct to foot might be best/quickest for fixing as he's a half hour drive from me.
your right its not too much to ask for a fully working marker and its understandable, it was just that i sent it in full working order and was looked at by a VG tech prior to being posted to you and as heard nothing was wrong thort it left foot in full working order too.
i'm glad weve managed find a way to resolve this.

On a slightly brighter note sorry to get in the middle of this convorsation is there any anno wear on the black barrel
no theres not tbh ive never used them as the thread was too long for the standard 2012 demon back so ive never used them, i recieved two direct from vg after onli ordering the black one and it taking 6 weeks to arrive
