[QUOTE="retrieverman, post: 3837695, member: 24452"] This not this necessarily relevant to this discussion, but the local gun classifieds I use, there’s a couple sure fire ways to tell if the seller is a scammer. First, if they register the same day an ad is listed, it’s likely to be a scammer. If no location or contact info is listed, it’s likely to be a scammer, and if the price is too good to be true, it’s pretty much a guarantee it’s a scammer. I’ve had friends ask what I think about a deal they’re working on, and when I give them my list of scammer “tells”, they want to argue with me. I want a “deal” as much as anyone, but sometimes you have to see it for what it is…a scam. :anyone: [/QUOTE]
