sorry, was out last night
Ok, so all good points.
When i said the XSV and Nexus cost the same to mill, i was exaggerating a bit - but having said that, i agree with bennor. At the end of the day, these team guns are the same material, just a different design - and if, like i'm sure planet does, have a cnc machine that can do that sort of thing, then its not gonna cost a whole heap more to do.
Ok, so lets for the sake of arguement say, it costs planet an extra £25-£30 gross (including the extra time and effort - Where is the rest of that £250 coming from?
Yes they are a custom label, and its like all things, as a couple of you say, you pay for the exclusivity - but lets be honest - although all the manufacturers bring out 'limited editions' - they'll make as many as they can sell And why not? Fair play. I wasn't aiming this at planet in particular, just happened to notice the 1050 squid price tag and wondered.
Answered my own question then really aint I?
Mike from brum, couldn't agree more than with your last comment, but i wasnt referring to the SL66 when i wrote about the xsv - now paying an extra 266 for a complete overhaul and improvement seems alot better value for money than an extra 250 for the standard 06 customs! Perhaps this puts my original point more into perspective - in the SL66 you get clearly get your extra money's worth.
Keep comments coming though, this'll be a good thread for anyone looking to get a custom ego
Mario - i wasnt talking about the SL66, thats a completely different thing - no need to get personal with the Angels Give me an Angel anyday
Rich - go back to PBNation you traitor
