THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
I busted my ass digging through 150 mags picking out the most perfect ones with the exact floorplates he wanted then he decides to save a couple of bucks by getting them somewhere else.


Hey sorry forgot to ask, do all of the chinese mags you have, have the "square followers"? Im reading about the bolt hold open conversion and just curious. Thanks again.



Okay. Well does $315 sound good for 12 then? Im wierd and like to keep things all the same so I would prefer 12 stamped "china" if you can find 6 more in your stash (as long as they are new). If not, 6 of the "china" and 6 of the "made in china" will work.
Just so you know I absolutely cannot afford more then this, I only have the cash because I would be canceling my order from Copes. Let me know if you can do 12 for 315 so I can cancel my order with Copes by the morning. If the price works then I would appreciate you taking a look for a few more of the china stamped ones, but we can discuss that tomorrow. Just let me know about the price tonight if you can, so I can cancel my order. Thanks.



OK, I'll do it.

Did I already send my address?

BTW, my feedback is +138 or higher.


Hey, Im having some money issues between tuition and rent here. Will you accept paypal if I tack on the extra fees? I will calculate the additional fees based on how many mags I get and what the price comes out to then. Please let me know, (and what you came up with mag wise). Thanks.


OK/ I came up with 7 marked China and 5 marked Made in China. PP hooks me 3.5% Your total will be $326. My PP address is xxxxx@xxx.net

Please call it Chinese fortune cookies


Some expensive fortune cookies. The stamp on the floor plate is the only difference between the mags correct? As long as that is the only difference then I will send the funds right now. I only ask because with AR mags every manufacturer used th same stamp on just about every mag they ever made. Can you get them shipped out tomorrow or wednesday then? Where are you located ? Thanks.



Sorry for wasting your time I just found the same mags for 19.99. I really do apologize, if it were a dollar difference I would not mind, but I guess this is a steal at this price.
Thanks for your time though, I appreciate it.

He did not post a topic or anything and there was nothing at all that I responded to in a post. We were working on a price and I found them cheaper so I let him know that same minute and said thank you, but I found them for 10$ cheaper, but I appreciate the offer. So he goes ahead and posts negative feedback! I cannot believe Im even having this conversation. I can understand if I had responded to a post and said that I will take them. But it was a simple IM with an offer. Is this really permisible as grounds for leaving negative feedback? If so, I am terrified of even using the IM system to negotiate random offers. I thought the point of negative feedback was that if someone posted a topic, and the buyer responded that he will take them, and then backed out, the seller lost other potential buyers because you backed out on them, then you as the buyer, backing out, are wrong and deserve negative feedback. Not because of an OFFER through a random IM. Its funny because I have made tons of sales and buys through the internet and everyone can understand if you find a better deal. If he lost a potential sale that would be fine, I would deserve negative feedback. He simply looked through his collection for some extra china marked floorplates. And had never even posted a topic, or lost any potential sales.

It is $5/mag difference and mine are original China marked, not recent imports. You won't be getting what you want.

You went all the way then failed to pay. You state offer but we had a deal and you know it. You clearly committed more than once. I have all the IMs

Actually, now that I read the IMs above again, you offered 2 times and I accepted 2 times.

Looks like a little more than just a random offer. Looks like you made a deal, found a better price and backed out. Why dont you just own up to it, and possibly get off with just a purple -1 instead of trying to circumvent the rules.

The point of negative feedback is to reprimand potential buyers from saying I will take them, and having a seller lose a possible sale with someone else. You cannot just go around and IM people and discuss offers and then say you are worse off because the person YOU IM'D did not end up taking your offer. Im done with this convo haha I cant believe Ive spent any amount of time dealing with such a vengeful child.

You've been a member for 3 months. I'll school you. Feedback is all the members here have to go on to judge others' character. You have now proven that you are fine with making deals then backing out when you think you found a better deal.

Read the above again: You made me 2 offers and I accepted both even though I'm not fond of PP. I even cut the price $5 each which is $60 total and hand picked your mags.

You are not getting out of this one.

Check out these jewels:

You never even had a post! You cannot do that. That's ridiculous. You IM'd me and made an offer! If I replied to a post and you put SPF and lost potential buyers that would be fine to post negative feedback for. I can guarantee without even making a post that the mods will not allow that and this will turn into a little girl match. If you decide to do that let me know, so I can do the same for you.


haha you seriously need to relax. Just post a topic and sell them. I don't get why you are so revengeful haha. You don't have a post to even refer to!! I dont get it? Now were just going to have to take this up with the mods and that is a waste of time.


Seriously I am just glad I don't have to live my life with your mentality. Im serious though, not just saying it as a means of "revenge". Your a very strange guy.

fortyfour, commitments made in private through IM or e-mail carry the exact same weight as commitments in the ad itself.

The point of negative feedback is that this site relies on things that you may not understand. Things like honesty, trust, commitment, etc. if these things are too difficult to deal with then go back to ebay. I have done multiple deals with ranchhand and he has always been a good guy to deal with and not a vengful child, seems to me that someone else is the child.
