Alright guys, I'm looking at buying a new Autococker. It's been a long time since I last owned one, so I have no idea what they are worth. What would you pay for the following?

02 Autococker, Cutsom milling, E-1 frame with Zero B board, Palmers Regulater, Sidewinder expansion chamber and Dye Boomstick barrel.

 

[Dark.angel]

150-200ish.

 

[DarkTamer]

150-200ish.

Definitely not. I'd say about 350ish, give or take about 50.

 

[new jack]

Thanks for the feedback guys. Although very different, I appreciate both of your opinions. I used to shoot a Cocker back in the day. I'm just getting into paintball, and I can't seem to get away from the ole' guns.

 

[Dark.angel]

Definitely not. I'd say about 350ish, give or take about 50.

Really?

I have not seen any E-Cocker, in the last 2-3 months, ACTUALLY sell for anything more then $200 dollars, other than a Karni.

Were they half-blocked and had some of the finest regulators and parts on them, not to mention given a custom anno?

$300.

 

[Dark.angel]

Custom Anno? I see that anno all the time. Palmer Regs are not the best. I know that Cocker resale is horrible, unless "custom" built. I don't know about how much the ups are worth or the custom anno, so I will take your guys word.

 

[JeSTeR_1269]

I agree, I'd put it at 275-300. I got 350 out of my halfie a couple years ago, and It wasnt as upped as that one. Looks like a very nice marker, bravo

I would say 300.

I always wanted a cocker pretty much exactly like this. Even though cockers have been phased out. I always loved using them. I had a karni and another cocker that I planned on turtling and such but IT just cost too much back then.

Oh well. It's a pity this would sell for so little its a nice ass gun.

-wes.

 

[bobide]

^^I know. The two regulators and the barrel are like $300 MSRP.

 

[new jack]

Thanks for all the input guys. I think I have a good deal lined up on the gun. I'll let you know if it works out...

 

[the_real_kaz]

It'll be $300 to someone who collects/loves old cockers, but if you don't find that person, it's only worth like $200-150 at most.

I wouldn't give you more than $125 though. but thats me.

 

[DarkTamer]

Custom Anno? I see that anno all the time.

No you don't... that's custom. You've probably seen similar annos, that doesn't mean they're the same.

Palmer Regs are not the best.

What's better? And don't tell me that stupid Pi reg thing, those were unreliable and are much harder to find than Sidewinders etc.

And what is this one, stock?

If someone doesn't like cockers then obviously they wouldn't pay as much. Then again... such a person wouldn't buy an autococker in the first place, in large part because no one would sell a nice autococker for such a low price under normal conditions. It's similar to the way I wouldn't pay more than about $200 for an A1, and I'll never find anyone that would sell me one for $200 anyway.

 

[Dark.angel]

No, I have seen that exact anno, more that once. I doubt that was a custom anno.

Yah Sidewinders are better than Palmers and so are Hyper 2's and 3's.

And what is this one, stock?

It is a decently upped cocker, I never said it was stock. There are plenty of stock parts on that gun.

I was getting mixed up on the regulators. The Palmers regulator on that autococker is the LPR; it's widely regarded as the best LPR. Off the top of my head I cannot think of a better one. The HPR is a sidewinder, from AKA, a very good regulator. Don't bring up the Hyper line; they are good, but nothing special. Everyone seems to think they are fantastic for some reason, I guess because of the Dye label.

Not including the internals which I of course cannot see, there is only one stock part that I can find in that picture, which is the ram. Everything else has been upgraded, not including the feedneck which is built into the body.

qft.

And the ram may even be upped a lot of the rams look a lot alike so its hard to tell.

The 3/4 Hypers seem to be quality, hell my hyper 2 rarely was anything above +-2, but they just aren't anything on the AKA regs

I believe you mean 2/3? There is no Hyper4. Yes, they are good regs, especially for coming stock on even the PMR and SLG.

 

[kenny_1491]

Yes, there is a hyper 4. It's a hyper 3 with regular threading.

Oh, I see. That seems kind of misleading, but whatever.
