Messaged this person a while back about a gun on armslist (not this one) and never got a reply. Moved on and forgot about it untill last night. At 1am I got what I can only assume was a drunk unsolicited text. At 6 when I woke up I replied the following after removing the curse words. Granted I don't have a baby that woke up, I figured a slight shaming and guilt trip were in order.

Ask Santa for a Burner phone.

I suggest you don't message complete strangers on Armslist and expect any better than what happened this time.

My take...At least he got back to you.

You apparently contacted him with some interest in his wares before. Did you give a specific window of time for him to get back to you?

Much worse things have happened on Armslist deals.

Yep, I hate Armslist. I arranged the sell of a Mosin a couple of weeks ago and we agreed to meet in the middle. Complete no-show and ghost from the time we were going to meet on. The guy was from Shawnee (405) 788-78xx

Unless it's an established OSA member or someone I know, I'll NEVER drive more than across town again.

I have had good luck with Armslist. Never any bad stuff at all.

I have purchased a few off Armslist. I make certain to call and talk to a human prior to setting up a meet. No conversation, no meeting. No human, no meeting.
I use the time on the phone to get a feel for the person on the other end. If I get a bad vibe, I'm out.

When texting, I include a time frame to contact me, usually 7am-7pm.

All that being said, I need to get a burner number. They are fairly inexpensive.

This is exactly what I do. You can tell a lot about someone just from a one on one phone call. I've had pretty good luck selling and buying on armslist also, even though the last guy I bought a Sig P320C from had an oriental accent so bad it was a struggle.

I can't stand people that put stuff up and don't respond for days. I tried a couple times to buy from some clown in Skiatook. Finally said screw it. I will keep my money.

Wow, what a POS.
