Soaker Watch

Water warfare is a past hobby of mine, and recently I have been attempting to repair some of my old water guns that are in need of repair. I was happy this evening to find a CPS 4100 pullrod that I needed and I will install it tomorrow more than likely. This post will serve as an update on super soaker prices on Ebay- some of these old guns are very rare and very expensive. You would think there would be hundreds of these things on Ebay- wrong. They are very rare and are worth a lot of money. I get asked a lot by other people about my collection, and I tell them that they don't make 'em like they used to.

Why collect them? They are fun, I think they are cool, they are now worthy of being a collector's item, they were an item from my childhood, AND they are great for sneak attacks/adding fuel to a small water balloon fight. If neighbors invite us to a BBQ and there are water balloons, out come the soakers... I still love 'em, play with 'em and repair them to keep them in working condition for years to come. The best time of year is to buy them during the winter when they are the cheapest. A lot of these below will end with much higher costs. I think I will limit myself to one or two per year to spend frugally- or I could snipe some during the winter, mmm....
