I'll take it, then IM you and try to beat you up on the price.

I will take it, and then crickets.

Yep, that's why I haggle on the thread, sometimes somebody jumps in an snags it, oh well. Buyer is happy, seller is happy, everybody wins.

Ok who on here is not guilty on one of these

1) The gun has never been shot. Well, yes it has. And don't say it's new. If it's been transferred to you it's used even if you haven't shot it.
2) Never shot is not a selling point to me. How do people know it will shoot if they haven't tried? ALL major mfg. have had recalls.
3) I'd rather someone say "I've put through a thousand maybe two thousand rounds and she works great."
4) I know there are guys out there who count rounds, I don't. When asked I usually est. "several hundred maybe a thousand". If more I say so.
5) If the bore is clean and has what appears to be sharp lands and grooves, the barrel is probably fine. 8 or 8K rounds still fine in most cases.

People who say GLWYS. More times that not they are laughing at you.

Like you I prefer some rds through the gun to know it runs

People that are too damn lazy to spell out,instead they abbreviate things in their posts like the doode above.
I had to ask Frank what that meant. He had to refer to his "cool guy" thesaurus. ---- SAWMAN

 

[ls1_guru]

So is this whole thread in reference to this group or in general haha

People in general.

Best answer here.

2) Forum “bigshots” ignoring the rules of sale posts, and mods keeping the posts up when they remove the posts of mere mortals for much less.

3) People who are “trying to sale” something, or are posting things “for sell.” Liberals already think that the gun crowd is a bunch of backwoods idiots...why do we have to give them any more reason to think that way?

#2 is solid. Some people are grandfathered in beyond rules. Let them have their last hurrah I guess..

#3, get in some car groups, you will literally see "I have this for sell" from many of the younger crowd, regardless of political affiliation. That is how it is now. I think of Idiocracy every time I see it.

What I dislike are the guys that try to buy ever fair deal , and then resale at a profit. They try to make business out of a otherwise enjoyable hobby . They are the ones that are always whinnying when they don’t get their way ,Even when no deal has been made. I likely won’t deal with you if you’ve made 3 or more negative feed back post about other members. if You’ve had that many deals that you feel compelled to complain about, then You might want to look in the mirror.

This one right here is another solid one. Low ball low and sell high as can be.
I'd expect making a profit out of someone who has a legit business or shop, that is the name of the game there, make revenue. I'm here for the hobby and adding/upgrading my personal stash. You can definitely tell the ones who are trying to scalp what they can. Maybe it's because they are on limited income for their personal squanders due to the home financial committee (wife). That tends to happen quite a bit.

Not a pet peeve, but I've never been clear on the reasoning why some sellers list their items with a Or Best Offer, as in "$600 OBO". Why not just list it for $600 and see if you can get it. You can always negotiate with a interested buyer, or just lower the price later if it's not selling.

You just can't make a post without calling us poor. And buy us I mean forum members vs you.

I didn't call anyone anything... just throwing out there real world experiences. But if you want to guilt yourself or others into something speaking for them, that's all you boo boo.

I'm just here to do my thing for myself as stated clear above in that post, not here to insert myself into a conversation to cause drama.

 

[RHINOWSO]

OFF IT GOES TO GUNBROKER!!!!!

<Hint - WE DON'T GIVE A FLYING FOOOOK - hence the reason NO ONE BOUGHT your overpriced Junk!>

I’ve added to the list of people I won’t do business with, thanks to this thread. It’s been educational to say the least.

 

[FrankT]

Can you hear me???

 

[ls1_guru]

I figured that out in 30 minutes of being in this forum haha...

You just sent me a pm indirectly calling me poor, that you're so wealthy you just give your stuff away.
This has absolutely nothing to do with sale ads, just your attitude since you've been here.
All of here are old and poor.
You make plenty of money at your day job.
I scalp people with my listings.
I may edit and add to this list so don't quote me just yet.

 

[ls1_guru]

The fact that you have to mention a private message to you says enough..are you really that soft you need to cry for attention here?

 

[stage20]

Did someone say private message?
Public now boo boo.
You really are something.......
To the community he's sent me a couple before that weren't so rude, but still calling me old and poor, and had more nice things to say about members as a whole.
We don't need this here!
