Prices make me want to /wrists!

This is kinda random but with all the posts lately about prices being nutty I thought I'd throw this out there...

This isn't a cry or a rant! It's just 430AM and I can't sleep.

I've been looking to sell my current AEG for a while now and wanted to pick up either a TM M14 (I want one that looks like the one I use in COD4, lawl) or a VFC SCAR-L (Black of course)

Anyways I was window shopping at AA, thinking I might be able to afford an M14 even if I don't find a buyer for my gun, and then I see that they are 840 bucks apiece now. Last time I considered buying one they were 700
A SCAR is definitely out of the question now as well...

I'm unemployed. An insomniac. And now I'm heartbroken. Anyone got a job opening? Will work for airsoft. PM me.

Well maybe it is kind of a rant. meh.

PS: Seriously, I want an M14 like the one in COD... You sell now kay!?

*edit* I don't really want to hurt myself... uh, poor choice of phrase I guess

And this makes you want to slit your wrists?

There are people who have REAL problems. And i don't think they slit their wrists.

Well I wasn't really expecting to be taken seriously... That phrase gets said a lot in my guild on warcraft. Anyways I guess, no, I don't really want to cut myself. But it does make me sad

Cause I have time to doddle before I leave for work.

I pose the same question to you now.

Can't sleep. Listening to some radio replays. And posting dumb things on an internet forum, apparently. What kind of job do you work?

I'm the garbage man.

And before you (like everyone) ask(s), Yes, I do get paid well.

Thats also cool. 9 out of 10 people ask me that after they ask what I do for a living. I figure all the tacky bling my trash man cheddar gets me would get them a clue.

I lol'ed reading that, took me a while to decipher it. My uncle lives in Mississauga, works for Westfare Foods. He's gotta wake up about the same time as you I think. Has to get on the 401 which from what I hear is bat shit crazy if you don't get on early enough. I can't imagine living in GTA, everything's so epic there compared to Saskatoon. What's the traffic like when you're making your rounds?

You could always give handjobs for airsoft, it's a chance to be employed AND get what you want...

I know I have. It's the only way these days. Either you're a CEO and earning all the airsoft you want, or your pimp slides you enough bb's to eventually trade up to a full blown AEG.

I'm like Bob Saget in Half Baked... Except, instead of coke, it was an AEG.

lol, well let's hope it never comes down to that. But your given options may prove to be the only viable. And seeing as I don't have the aducation for a CEO position... /sigh

If you're unemployed, you got to use your money wisely. Maybe paying for car, insurance, house? Even them out, and when you do find a job again, work for your M14.

Its because AA's pricing now shows the guns after tax.
