    Got burned on an online purchase for Python grips . . .

    Sent this guy up in SF money for grips and now's he's in the wind a week later. Not the biggest $ to get burned on but sure chaps my azz. Thought I would share the info so anyone else avoids getting involved with this guy. Or maybe you just text 100 pages of Shakespeare to him (I've beat you to that). Anyway, here's my buddy's info!!

    He's very communicative until he gets paid. Then, not so much. Here's his ad:

      Sorry to hear. At least you didn't get burned on the price of a complete $3000.00 Python revolver.

        Nooooo kidding. I'll take this loss and move along happily (well I'm gonna bother the hell out of him first). But eating the cost of an actual python would be a real bummer.

          There are solutions to every problem my friend. Both those numbers are land lines. Easy-Peasy.

              type II python grips bummer. We have all heard it before, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

              I like the part how he is taking bids, someone probably offered him more and since he needs the money, he is no hurry to return it to you.

                That's what these scumbags with no honor in life wants you to do - move on. Those poor low life bastards nickel and diming will get whats coming to them sooner or later. Life is too good to worry about chump change. Let the chump choke on it.

                        Speak for yourself, I've lived in Oakland Concord and San Ramon, all of those cities are great places to live, never had any trouble. The only place in the bay area that suck's is San Francisco, that place is a hell hole.

                            Intelligent post.

                            True wealth is time. Time to enjoy life.

                            Life's journey is not to arrive safely in a well preserved body, but rather to slide in sideways, totally worn out, shouting "holy schit...what a ride"!!
