I am about to go to war, otherwise I would buy some. Can I back order them?

What specifically do you need, and when do you need it?

Then we'll tell you if we can do it.

Indeed we do, they're in our other storefront.

Yep all overlooked by storefronts, but included in my armies for many years :)
19-09-2003, 05:38
I never found anybody who sells them, so I figured hey, what the hell, why not?

I didn't overlook the M163A1 when I started selling the M113 series of apcs, and all the variants... Damn it yours are cheaper then mine!!! :roll:
19-09-2003, 06:32
We wish to purchase 1,000 of your M163A1's, now how about a discount price for buying in bulk?

Oh....well, this one is supposed to be slightly better (the radar on the RL Vulcan was pathetic), so I'm going to change it to -A2 designation.

Kiith Furio: that comes to $1,250,000,000. Ordinarily we don't do bulk discounts, but since you're the first customer then you get 10% off.

So your total is now $1,125,000,000.

Delivery in 1 RL day.

What, do you sell them too? Didn't know I was stepping on any toes...searched the boards for them and didn't come up with anything.

Yes, the mg's come standard with it.

50 Broncos = $200 million. Shipment will arrive in 6 RL hours.

(DKM mod puts out some good stuff for OFP, don't they?)

No i don't sell them, i was thinking of offering one of my crookfur upgrades (new engines and electronics) but never got around to it.

As a word of note, the M163A1 was also removed from service because it is not only obsolete on a modern battlefield, but also a lot less accurate than many people believe. The targeting system was crude and done to the lowest level which was good for some things, but leaves the weapon vulnerable to operator error. Also, when firing, the M163A1 is very unstable so ensure that you are not on any type of gradient when firing it.

Ahhhh....so not all American gear is crap then....very interesting

But seriously now, I assume you modified it a lot with stuff so I hope there will be no conflict over my selling this one...

Hence our upgrading it to M163A2 standard...we've taken a little license with reality to make it a viable purchase again.

Bad guarantee. I recall seeing at least one other selling it under the original name, and at least two more (including me) who are selling improved variants under different names.

:tantrum:

Then why the hell didn't it come up when I searched for it on these boards?!

I just looked through the your storefront...I don't see it.

Then why the hell didn't it come up when I searched for it on these boards?!There was this time in July that the admins here upgraded the forum's database software to attempt to make the forum faster [which, in opposite, made here as slow as hell], so when they removed the database, you can't search any posts posted before July 10-20th I believe (except when you search all posts of a user).

Found one of the posts in question - posted AFTER those dates.

I said under a different name. Look at the Kit Fox Light Tank, the last unit in part 1. If you haven't seen it yet, you might also get a kick out of my most recent addition (just read the book again last week).

If that claim's the issue, I don't think it's much of a reason to close the store - more a minor mistake to learn from. I myself was just pointing that out because you of your "absolute guarantee." I just have this thing about claims like those and love to prove them wrong. :twisted:
20-09-2003, 04:50
Hah....Megafortress. Good stuff.

Nobody's buying this crap anyway...I suppose that's why it's "overlooked." That other guy thought it pertinent to call the Vulcan crap even though the whole point of selling it was that it was an upgrade...whatever.

Don't give up. Some people will look for it --- and you got business.

Another idea: put those "popular but not most popular" stuff in (like F/A-18s, LAVs, etc) in, and people will probably look here for these "popular" systems, and perhaps they will also buy the "overlooked" stuff along with it.

It is the same for CSJ and my store --- everyone buys the combat aircraft/ships/ground systems, almost none buy the support/logistics/etc. stuff (which also explains why 98% of the people here don't put AWACS and ASW aircrafts on their carriers :lol: ). Still, my point is, don't give up. Instead, add more.
20-09-2003, 04:55
Bah, I havent bought AWACs, but thats because its expensive, and my CBG rarely leaves shore, so it uses landbased radar systems. I do have two Sacramento's though.

In fact, here is my maintenence budget:

And then there's the occasional random post like this one ^^^^.

It isn't that hard to understand, at least from my point of view, that all that stuff is necessary...in fact I was about to buy some tankers and Sentries earlier tonight but then had to deal with some other issues.

But really the point of this shop was to find the stuff that nobody (which I guess really means like 4 people) sells and put it in one spot, so intelligent RPers could find it.

It blows my mind that all these people have millions of Marines and no APCs to drive them around.

Aside from that... I also have seen people putting "85 F-14s" or "80 F/A-18s" on their Nimitz-classes...
