I have one, it Sucks iinn my opinion always leaked and have to keep it in the gallonof fuel. Then its hard to fill once the gallon is more than half empty.

BUt for $5 its worth a try....

It leaks? Crap, I was hoping it wouldn't.

mine did, when it was full it leaks out the tip. The concept is great, its just not that good of a design. I even took my apart and tried an o ring and stuff with no luck.

I may have just got a bad one, so let us know how yours works out. You cant go wrong for $5, I wasted alot more than that in this hobby

The guy really did not want to sell it for $5. He had it up for $.99 and in the description he said he reserved the right to not sell it for less than $20. When I won it for $.99 I told him he better sell it or face negative feedback.

Ebay!! I just got screwed by a guy who wouldn't pay for an auction because "he felt he bid too much for the item". It must have been someone else who entered his bid I guess. Bottom line, I got it resolved and left him neg fb, and he gives me neg fb right back. What a pissant. I relisted the item and sold it in three hours.

Your guy was just trying to avoid the reserve fee on the listing.

I've read that the fuel guns make nice pit tools for racers with pit men. But I would believe they aren't too handly for bashers because of the design.

I hate the fact that, unless your willing to pay Square Trade, you can forget removing negative feedback. I haven't found another way.


Look at this nifty thing I got - DAVEC-NITRO-RS4 - 09-23-2005

You're right. It's better to just keep piling up positives in case you get a negative. And when things go bad, you can't be the first to post negative, cuz you know the other guy will too even it its not right. So most negative deals end up going without feedback on either end.

I had a guy bid on several auctions, then renig on them all, claimed he was away at a funeral. Of course he got several negatives and he returned them all with a likewise negative.

Dont give any feedback. Unless everything went smoothly. Always contact the seller/ buyer and inform them that neg feedback is impending, usually you can get it resolved or agree to not give feedback. I was gonna leave negative feedback for the guy I bought my RC10GT from because I felt the truck was not as described. However my wife fearing that this guy would "Just give it back to me" suggested I leave no feedback at all.
