It's sad to say but there are some real asshole retailers in the airsoft world. These sites post insanely good prices, but the problem is once you send them money, you don't see your products. And since they are located in "Japan" (They are actually in Finland), it's very hard to get your money back. This specifc retailer has been screwing people for years though. He's scammed indiviuals and retailers alike.

I've been involved with tracking down and trying to help peeps avoid some of the following.

Here's a in depth post/review about this guy:

Beware of:

Miki Nakamura
User TTD on Gunbroker.net
tokyohobby.net
wwiiguns.com
japanairsoftguns.com
Tokyo Central Hobbies
renegaderecon.com (suspect to have directly benefitted from Miki Nakamura's many rip offs)

If it sounds too good to be true it probably is!!!

The less scammers the better.

Hmmm dunno why this was pulled so off topic. Anyway, if you have a legit problems with an order with a retailer or scammer. Money has changed hands and you can give us details about this transaction and why to avoid it, just PM me the info and I'll compile it in this thread. The first post is about a company/person whos been ripping people off for years now.
