So I'm pretty happy with my current collection of Nerf Guns. But there is one space waiting to be filled by the gun which has proved to be most difficult to find. As mentioned in the subject it is the Longshot CS-6, there is just something about this gun that screams cool. The scope, the bipod the stock it just looks awesome (Check out this review from Outback Nerf.). But my issue is where the hell can I get one, well there are the usual stores Warehouse (Walmart equivalent) but they only stock current models, as do the toy stores. Buying internationally through Amazon, EBay or Fishpond is an idea but the shipping is ridiculous expensive to New Zealand (over $50 often more than the gun). So I am left with Trade Me (New Zealand EBay) and so far the hunt has been difficult. Every so often an example comes up when a family is clearing out old toys but many sellers aren't offering shipping as the item is so bulky. I did find one the other day from a seller asking for pick up from home only, so I sent them a question asking to pay for shipping. The seller was willing to ship for only $10! So on I jumped to make the purchase to see someone had beat me to it picking up this rare in New Zealand gun for $60NZ ($49US) with a free Recon CS-6 thrown in!
So the hunt continues any readers who know of any bargains I would be grateful to hear about them. Until next time.
