    Scammer Alert?

    scammedupdate was contacted by tackleberry and issue in progress of being resolved***
    looks like I went against my better judgement and tried to give the guy the benefit of the doubt, my mistake.

    **** as of 3/23/16 , Issue has been resolved, pkg in route, track# verified ... albeit took a while due to lack of communication and pkg not being sent out as promised but seller eventually followed thru***

      Hope you get your ammo. He may have shipped it snail mail and not decent enough to just reply to an email or text. That is bad manners.

      I would not send away money to this kind of a member. 16 posts and mostly in the same thread.

        This is why I only deal locally, face to face for cash only. This minimizes the surprises.

          Hopefully you are pleasantly surprised in the end.

          A building contractor hires an Englishman, an Irishman, and a Chinaman. He gathers them all in his office and tells each of them their jobs. The Englishman to shovel a pile of sand. The Irishman has to take the sand in the wheelbarrow to the truck. The Chinaman is in charge of supplies.

          The boss comes back two hours later and he sees the Englishman and the Irishman having a cup of tea. ''So have you done the work then?'' he asks.

          The workers both shake their heads and tell him that the Chinaman didn't give them a shovel or a wheelbarrow. The boss is infuriated by this and asks the workers if they have seen the Chinaman, they tell him they thought they saw him going toward the truck. So the boss sets out towards the truck and just as he is getting close to the truck the Chinaman jumps out from behind a wall and yells, "SUPPLIES!"

                I would advise only FTF transaction. Maybe if a seller has a relative post count, has been a member for some time, and has iTrader feedback record, then shipped goods could be trustworthy.

                  This is why I didn't want to ship my Colt 6920 that I wanted to sell.

                      If sufficient time has passed and he is ignoring you, can't you contact a moderator and report this. If this is the sale I think it is, he may have sold that stuff to someone else and be looking around for ammo to ship to you. That is still crooked.

                        Seriously though, I hope you get your ammo after all...

                          Tackleberry? Sure you got the right username? That member has been here since 08 and only has 2 posts.

                          edit: I see now. It's tackelberry.

                            He had done a lot of prior business and couldn't remember his name?


                            Sorry but if he had done a lot of business all he would have to do is search for the posts of some of those deals and he would find his old name.

                            But I would never have to because I remember my name.
