Well, after a couple of messages with this bloke, it seems that TaccyToys have finally “approved” that they will be sending him a refund……at some point……as it’s been 4 weeks already and they have just agreed that a refund will be issued……somewhere in the future :roll_eyes:

The OP is happy with me sharing these on the Forum, and hopefully this will be the last one for this particular story from the TaccyToys History Book :thinking:

“ Oh yeah, I definitely fell for the DD clock, shouldve known better as BSC had the exact same thing before they existed g Wanted to save that 60$ something chronic and it had a leading effect on my making a purchase when I did as I was in the final 40 minutes or so before it restarted, its predatory bullshit and should be removed. I had lengthy conversations with BS’s owner about how disengenuous it is and that customers have every right to demand a full refund within 7 days of making a purchase or even longer if they discover themselves in financial distress over the purchase, which was the demographic they were targeting hardest as the models theyd buy, had the LARGEST margins for the company and even with a restocming fee after a return, theyd still turn a good profit after forcing you to pay return shipping.

TacToys was better on the return front, but BSC would have offered to pay themselves for a device that tried to combust without the drop of a hat if it wasnt local, if it was, theyd even pick it up themselves so youd feel more comfortable not having to transport what is effectively a bomb with over 100 individual charges in most cases.

1 sent you an inbox about whats happened since, ill update the post soon, honestly waiting to see how much longer it will take for the refund to actually be processed and if I have any further issues there.

Seems like that friend of mine that gave me the vector | mentioned earlier, may have given an ear bashing himself, he was pretty pissed with how it was handled too, Im not surprised considering he was about to drop a pretty penny on a bunch of GBB stuff with them as he was under the impression they were on the up but still janky and untrustworthy and now will likely purchase from hobby instead considering even he had issues contacting customer service.

Ill also maintain, I was quite timid on the phone, I have severe anxiety, so if im not in the situation, it makes gauging whats going on more difficult, so on the phone I was nothing but polite, not mad, not angry, reasonable if anything considering my blaster almost caught fire due to a DESIGN flaw.

When it came to my original post, my hate absolutely came through with a flourish, things couldve been worded considerably better, but thats what happens when your policies are F the customer, they can wait and chase us around everyday while we try to take every cent we can and hold it for as long as possible.

P.S TacToys, I know you’re seeing this, the tone of your emails and the fact that my

“handler” has changed tells me enough, the constant bombardment of phone calls on friday wasnt ignored, thankyou for getting me motivated enough to push this a little further after you harrassed me, I may have made an agrivated post publicly stating my opinion and dealings with you, but I sure as hell havent harrassed you one bit. This toxic behaviour needs to stop, who ever is doing it needs to get fired immediately as they’re destroying your company from the inside and WILL land you in a pot of fuckery seen enough. Quit it with the exact same cycle with every issue you’ve ever had, it’s psychotic.

Who the hell is going to buy from a company that doesn’t even have an answering machine or a voice mail to collect the hundreds of phone calls your poor customer rep has to contend with, no wonder theres a post here stating that the front staff have a tendancy to create inhouse issues with the other employees JUST LIKE BSC, it’s got to be making the poor girl need therapy 9 days a week, get an answering service for shits sake, or pay for more phone lines and staff, that is a thing. No customer should be left feeling like they were hung up on or your phone is off during business hours, do you not like money, and your staff shouldnt feel like they hate the fuck out of their jobs and themselves because theyre dealing with the problems your policies create.

TI;Dr Dear TacToys (Owners), dont be shit cunts, treat the public and your staff better, realign your policies and marketing practises to the standard of the State you operate within or just fuck off, I couldnt care less which you pick, Im not your customer anymore. To the staff, just get a different job or band together and do it better, yes its hard, but shit Maccas would be less soul crushing by the sounds of it. “

I snagged a black Mac 10 vs from viper tac a month or so ago on special for $100, had issues right out of the box, emailed them about it, got a fairly quick response and was told to send it back or bring it it for them to check, took it in in person and the guy who served me identifed the problem, exchanged for me and renewed the warranty and everything was good as gold, walked away happy with the customer service and the Mac 10

Did they strip the pink off :laughing: Definitely a problem. :rofl:

nah nah nah lol it was black through and through :joy:

you may want to check out this thread on mac-10’s…

Shows some of the mods that can be done, if you like john carpenter 80’s movies…!!

mine didn’t even come in a box like that, just plain brown, but cheers I’ll check it out.

I did see mental gears and a few other things on a site I was looking at parts on, definitely something to think about

Well that made my shit day better and laugh. :+1:

whoops must just be my mental state today which is completely :crazy_face::face_with_symbols_over_mouth::exploding_head:.

I of course meant metal gears, stupid phones auto predictive text gets me all the time, usually it makes me sound Asian, no offence, just meaning like I have a language barrier

I know, just stirring you up all good mate :+1: Not the only one with that auto predictive caught me out today and I dare not repeat it :rofl: ooops

Throwing as a update if its ever done: tactoys has been wond up by the gov for unpaid taxes it seems as seen from here onwards Closed Down (Retailers) Updated - #212 by Wombat

Cheers for the information mate, but we have another thread here somewhere that’s been following the demise of TaccyToys over the past few years, so is great that you have shared this information here :+1:

Hopefully there’s not been too many new hobby enthusiasts that have been ripped off by TaccyToys leading up to their collapse, and only hope that these people are able to get in touch with the good people in this hobby to help them find :pray:

Yea thats the one i linked to, threw the info here aswell incase peeps dont see that one.

anyone ever ordered from Eagle Airsoft And Hobby and if so, what was your purchase experience like? how did it go?

Never heard of them, probably be a bit iffy trying to order anything with them also selling Airsoft stuff so might get flagged just by the store alone.

They also don’t have a lot of stock of anything by the looks and prices aren’t any better than local if not more expensive.

All just observational thou.

SixMM in HK are worth a look.

Airsoft supplier, but I’ve had no problems getting a fair few parts in from them. Handguards, buttstocks, muzzle devices, etc. :man_shrugging:

hmm. that’s where I’m trying to get the bing feng m203 grenade launcher from as it’s the only place I could find that had one in stock.

oh well, if worse comes to worse it’s safeguarded my the payment method so should be able to get a refund if I don’t get it.

cheers guys

Never heard of eagle airsoft, but that doesn’t mean much as I don’t look at many airsoft sites, get to jealous of the variety!

Parts I ordered from Sixmm have always arrived, but they take ages to send them, and then it takes ages to arrive. My record is just over 3 months, best I had was about 5 weeks.
