Strange ad from a Wanenmacher

[O4L]

I thought this was odd.

Im looking for a .22LR or 9mm pistol. I don't want to spend more then $500 for it (I am a Wanenmacher and know a fair bit about firearms and I'm NOT willing to spend double what a pistol is worth) so if you are going to try to sell me a hipoint for $200 don't bother replying. I just want to see what is out there and I will take the ad down when I'm done looking or when my show comes around. Please only text or email. I am to busy to take calls right now but feel free to text any time day or night. I don't usually get to sleep til around 4-5am anyway.

Does seem a little strange. Seems like he could pick up a phone and call any number of vendors that set up at his shows and get a deal.

Weird, sounds like the guy needs to get some sleep.

I don't believe it. Sounds like somebody full of it.

One can say anything on Armslist.

Tis sounds familiar, like a WTB ad that was on this forum some time ago. My search fu isn't good enough to find it though.

Stealth advertising or someone playing a joke? It's certainly not Joe but I guess it could be a relative just exploiting the name.

There are these other ads with the same phone number:

Looks like something at the end of a sleazy personal add...

So you can buy a hipoint for 100? Where?
