I was about 10 minutes too late on that one. My wife sent me a text that she wanted to '"ROCK THE PINK RAT" on Ebay. I thought it was code for something else. LOL. She will get over it. That BIN price seemed a bit high. Didn't you even send him an offer?

Sometimes you just have to jump on it and ask her if that is what she meant afterwards. We're talking about the marker right??
Great buy SIK. I missed it.

Well there was no way I was paying $190 for a Rat, unless pink was my favorite color. My offer was considerably less. That doesn't mean it is not worth that, it's just not worth that much to me. I'd be broke if I bought everything I wanted. It's still a nice looking Imp!!!

lol well my other nickname is pinky always rocked pink guns had a pink angel, pink double barreled ion, pink nexus cocker, pink and black timmy, and a pink a5.... i offered on it first then decided since i have been chasing this particular rat for quite some time to just buy it... those who have talked to me know that i have a imp "bucket" list.... this rat was on it and has slipped thru my hands like 4 times so no more! i wouldnt have paid 190 either except its a OTB frame, evil respirator, evil valve, evil hammer and ram, matching freak, and so on.... i dont mind paying well for good stuff especially unique stuff  |

It's not that my boys don't help me work on stuff. I am talking about the basement full of 20+ years of paintball gear and the garage full of 80's BMX. I have been selling alot for the last 3 years to bring it down to a manageable level. Things are only worth as much as someone will pay for them. I had 135 of these original Dominator BMX seats that I could sell for $100 all day. Then a guy decides to get permission to remake the originals. guess what? People would rather have a remake for $30. Everybody wants an original, but they don't want to pay original prices. The only way to get a frame made for less than $150, is to have a minimum of 1000 units made. I checked years ago. What am I going to do with 1000 single trigger I-frames? They will never sell and the originals will be worth nothing. You could just make 1 in your secret workshop, but you will have more than $150 in materials and labor into it.

Light was the reason I even dug the frame out. We had deal all lined up, but something came up on his end and he backed out.

Is that milled differently or is it just a different model rat?
The rat in the PL imp guide looks like it but it's labeled as a rat LTD(I think). Whereas my rat jrs milling goes all the way.
Anyone care to explain?
