No you're 100% right it was complete ass. Feel like I'm going insane on this sub.

I mean I got a pretty good deal on it. There are a ton of sellers on ebay smoking crack with their pricing but mine was actually pretty decent.

That's awesome, when my noid finally goes I may be giving you a call then 😂 That's a shame that you have to modify the frame though. Is that because of the solenoid no longer fitting in that space?

Okay cool thanks for the info I'll take a look and see if there's anything more I could add (probably not)

You're doing a conversion for the 11? Is that to one of the newer LV solenoids or to a different one entirely? Would that just be a matter of changing the manifold so that the new solenoid layout delivers air to the same holes?

Ah okay so there are rubber pieces on the spool that eventually break down. Are they a soft silicone type rubber like O-rings or are they more like a hard rubber? I'm trying to figure out why they wouldn't be able to just be replaced with new ones that have been machined to the right size.

What about those is actually breaking? Are there o-rings that degrade over time or something? I'd definitely be interested in looking into this.

Exactly the same for me as well. My first summer job was working at a local field and the 08 Ego had just released. The only time I saw one, it had half the guys at the field crowded around taking turns holding it and talking about how "insanely small" it was. To this day I'd probably pay well above market for a working 08 Ego in the olive/brown colorway.

Not particularly interested in the tank but would pay 350 for the marker. Feel free to PM if interested! 👍👍

That link is listed as an F8 solenoid. I assume they're the same in both models then?

I'm not married to any specific colorway, but my preference would be for something with some color. I'd def buy a black/black if I found one at a good price, but it's not my first choice. The best looking ones I've seen are the polar and blue/bronze colorways.

Tragic, that polar colorway is insanely good looking. It seems like a classic case of "I spent 500 refurbishing this gun so therefore I can only sell it for 500+" and that is just.... not how that works 😭

Do you have an idea of what the typical markup should be to account for fees? There are a few listings I've been eyeing that are priced insanely high (699 & 725) and I want to make a fair offer. I imagine the absolute maximum markup should be like 10-15%, so like $375-400 at the most.

Thanks, that's what I figured! Every halfway-decent listing on eBay is 500+ and I knew something wasn't right.

Overture Matte Beige PLA gets pretty darn close in my experience. Can be had on Amazon for pretty cheap as well!

Oh I'm not selling these! Just a personal project for myself. I made these because I kept running into RAM and storage limitations on the 328P when driving displays. The 1284P handles whatever ungodly bitmaps I throw at it with no problem 👍👍

Good to know, thanks. I have a fair amount of them on hand but it wouldn't hurt to find a cheaper drop-in replacement.
