Toronto airsoft help?

[PracticalTacticalBC]

so i am going to be making a 1600 dollar order from toronto airsoft, anyone have any experience with large orders from them? good? bad?

[BioRage]

They'll be happy for you.

Though their prices aren't usually the best, I'd shop around.

[Kozzie]

They're a legit reputable retailer. I believe there are a few threads reviewing them on here.

I agree the prices aren't the best. Shop around. Mach1, Airsoft Depot, there are lots of Airsoft dealers

[BioRage]

Actually, if you can wait till blackfriday, mach1 and all the other places do some good deals, IIRC Mach1 did 20% off last year,

[Kokanee]

Give Rich @ Mach1 a call, he's a pro at dealing with large custom orders and will treat you right. Also they don't sell to minors, unlike Toronto Airsoft.

Support responsible retailing with your dollar I always say...

+1. I found their price is always on the high side, even though not as bad as those in the West coast. Worse is their price increases significiantly in the last 2 months. The percentage is greater than the depreciation of Canadian dollars.

You may also try Chigun Hobbies. Their collection is not the best but the price is better, and they also do special order for some very unique items e.g. Inokatsu pistols.

Ken at Chiguns is great, cash deals, no tax, and negotiable if you do big orders. (in Person) + It's pacific mall, common.

I.E GHK Tavor $750 Cash
I.E. TM M&P9, TM HK45, etc. $280 Cash
I.E. GHK M4 $650 Cash
I.E Black FNX45 - $280 Cash

CAD is crap now, but his prices are still relevant.

etc etc etc

I would think about it twice. I ordered a GBB from them, pistol came with missing part which made it unusable. It was brand new model at the time, so spare part was not available. First it was: "Sure, we'll give you a part from another pistol". Than it was: "Sorry, we sold that pistol but we have another shipment coming in, just wait". Than it was dead silence. I had useless GBB sitting at home for 10 months before spare part became available and I could order it.

I should've but after email saying that it's ok to get the part I decided to go with that option. Had no idea it would end up this way.

Mach 1's website had some issues a few weeks ago and EMT was used as an alternate. You could always give a call and see if accommodations can be made. Age will need to be verified once you make an order, but you could always try to see on the EMT front.

Concerning a CC, secured and/or travel cards are super easy to obtain these days and don't need a credit check if that's an issue.

Yah, I cut up all my old credit cards, and walked into a Canada post outlet and got one of their $10,000 pre loadable credit cards that I can load with online banking. That way if I go anywhere I can load it with some money in case of an emergency, or if I see something online I can buy it with a quick transfer of funds...instead of buying things with money I don't have. Costs three bucks to load it an minimum load is 25 bucks tho So its really helped with random spur of the moment spending.
