I myself have never ordered from him, but from what i'v heard he is a very good guy. His prices are alot less than most retailers, but I dont think his specality is airsoft, so I dont think hes the kind of guy that brings in lots of guns in at one time to sell off. Just send him a couple emails to him. I had the same problem (I was going to order some stuff but I ended up deciding I didnt want to) Eventually he will return your emails just give it some time. Also, I believe peter is a member of joc airsoft so maby ask around there.

I'm in the process of ordering some stuff from him right now, the order's been in for months (Held up by technical issues for a bit). He's a great guy to deal with, and is very friendly and tolerant...
I'm pretty sure the order's on its way from WGC right now.
What'd you order?

EDIT: I don't know why, but WGC isn't working... the site isn't loading at all, it says 404 error.
Their other domain name isn't working either, it hasn't since yesterday... :rrr:

Digital_Assasin · November 20th, 2005, 09:44

WGC Works fine for me. Maybe it is your ISP going wonky on you for a bit.

Bob the Angry Potato · November 20th, 2005, 09:47

Yeah, it probably is... after reading that, I tried going back to www.wgcshop.com and it never loaded. At least before that, it gave me a 404...

EDIT: I take it back, it just took a while to load.
However, yesterday and this morning, it didn't work at all (HP 404).

ANOTHER EDIT: Any news from him recently? I E-Mailed him about when I'm DD'ing the rest of the money, he hasn't replied.
Then again, he's a busy guy. He's got a wife and 2 kids, and they're probably out doing something (As they should be, I'd hate to be a kid with my dad working all the time, as he did when I was younger... :sad: ). You can't blame him for not being here.

Bob the Angry Potato · November 20th, 2005, 17:17

There, he just mailed back.
My pistol's out of stock, I have to wait 'til 2006 :sad:

Try flushing your dns cache. That should clear things up, and allow you to hit the website.

Bob the Angry Potato · November 20th, 2005, 18:44

Nah, it works perfectly now. I think it just had some down-time earlier, or they were updating.

Bob the Angry Potato · December 10th, 2005, 17:10

UPDATE: Got E-Mail, stuff's cleared customs and should be shipped out in the next few days. Yay AIModels!

endLess · December 10th, 2005, 17:34

So this place orders guns from overseas for you and ships it to you?

Bob the Angry Potato · December 10th, 2005, 17:47

As does every retailer, including Tru...

AIM is one of the few dealers that I will do business with. I'm saying this NOT because I think the other retailers are buggers or anything of the sort, but I have played BESIDE Peter (owner) and he is one hell of a gentleman. He and Ken of 007 are who I personally endorse.

Happy hunting

Bob the Angry Potato · December 10th, 2005, 20:45

Yeah, he's great.
This is my first order with him, and he's probably one of the nicest retailers I've dealt with, besides Clay from Rangers and Ken from 007. He's put up with my uncountable E-Mails with insane amounts of patience, and has saved me over 200 dollars...
There's a long wait involved, but it's damn worth it.
