Had a potential buyer post this on my ad:
IM sent would like to get it.
Now I know this doesn't constitute enough, then this was the IM's:
I got to apologize.
I had some friends helping me look for a gun and someone pointed me to an incredible deal.
I was able to get a new Barrett 6.8 rec7 for $1775 free shipping.
That is an incredible deal I have to take. Here in town they are $2100 then + tax.
Again my apologies and I wish you the best of luck with the gun.
I can pick up a case, if you want to have it in a case. I will stop by Walmart and see what they have. The easiest way for me to get a copy of the FFL would be for them to email a copy, I can do fax, but I have to be at work when they send it so it doesn't get lost.
My email is XXXXXXXXXXXXX if they can send a picture of the FFL. I will get back to you about the case, it will add to the shipping cost because it will be bigger than I expected.
Thanks,
XXXXX
SOUNDS GREAT!
my smiling face wont get the gun shipped BEFORE you get the money?
what is this world coming too?
i completely understand
i already have financing approved so this should be smooth.
i really want a case for it to ship in to protect it, nothing fancy just safe.
my address is
XXXXXXX
here is the ffl
XXXXXXXXXXXX
i just talked to him and he said you will need his licenses to ship it and you will need to include a copy of your drivers licenses and my name as purchaser
i bought a gun a few months ago thru him and had no problem so this should be easy also.
give me a call when ever you can, or if you need to for anything.
The lowered price was down to $900. This is 6.8SPC, it is just the current and best version of 6.8, it will fire all variations of the 6.8 cartridge. I can ship it to an FFL dealer in Texas.
I do not have any optics to go with it. It does not come with a case, I could buy one to send it in or get a box to send it in. If you want it let me know. I will not ship until I have the money.
I can't call you right now, I am at work but I can communicate on IM
Thanks,
XXXXXX
i live in XXXX so will shipping be a problem?
i assume not since you said you will ship.
what is the lowerd price?
and just to make sure there isnt a different type of 6.8 out there.
this is the 6.8 spc correct?
do you have any optics to go with it, if you do how much and what type?
will it come with a case? if not would you buy one and ship it in that, i will pay of course.
my name is XXX and i live in XXXX
cell number
XXX-XXX-XXXX
please call soon
I was a little leary just because the account was created yesterday, but I figure, if he sends me money, and I am shipping to an FFL then I am covered.
What does the hive think?
Sounds like scammer wording to me. Not sure how anyone could pull off a scam if you are sending to an ffl though.
Just make sure you have the money in hand before shipping. And make sure to work all details out for the sale.

The only possible issue I see is that your last response is that you will get back to him.
The case and shipping hadn't been worked out yet.
Still though, sounds like he was all ready to go until he found another deal.

I did actually go out and buy a new case to send it in, but I can return it. Just seemed like the guy was ready to buy and then, poof gone!
Not a huge deal, but it just seems like a new guy should learn that you can't come jumping in saying you will buy and then back out.
Since it got to the point where it cost you money I would say he deserves atleast a -1.
Sorry you got burned.
Like I have mentioned before, we need 2 buttons:
Buy it now at $xxx
Offer $xxx
Seems to be too much welching lately.

We had those buttons in the "classifieds" and members didn't like it so it's gone.
