    Does This Strangely Suspicious to YOu (from the Market)?



    Ruger P89 for sale at $350.

    Seller has 14 posts since May 2020. Three respondents have a total of 9 posts...

    Somebody new trying to score a decently priced P89 or, somebody new trying to gen up a false sense of demand?

    Noob because it is for sale at a reasonable price. As for adding interest the more answer post numbers the less I look.

      P89 is not a desirable weapon. It does seem like a weird number of all new people, but the recent unpleasantness has brought many new people into our community.
      Buying a safe and sane firework is like paying a hooker for a hug. I do not see the appeal in it.

        Your Instinct is correct. Something is up with this. The “ interested parties” Look fake to me. Their comments alone are suspicious and out of character.

          It reads like the same person wrote each post.

            Even the board names look like spam accounts.

            I sold a P89 to my boss 15 years ago +/-. I think for $350.
            Big, heavy gun. Shot great. Had a bunch of standard mags for it.

                I think that's it though, I didn't see it until you mentioned it.

                  It all looks perfectly normal to me. The type of gun and the price would attract newbies, especially given the recent rush on guns and lack of availability. There is no way this guy kept a sleeper account from last year on standby just so he could 'gin up' interest in a $380 gun.

                      All interested parties look real to me and not bots.

                          The P90 and P89 are classics. Definitely worth $350.00. Very durable. Hey it’s not a 1911 but it’s close. Ayob endorses the P90 but not the p89 as much.

                          I’d buy a P90 in a heartbeat at $300.00.
                          I love America for the rights and freedoms we used to have.

                            I thought I read a while ago that Ayob carried and traveled with a Glock 26.
                            But maybe I'm confusing him with some other famous firearms use instructor.

                            The price doesn't seem unreasonably high or low considering the situations right now and I've heard those Ruger pistols run fine even if they're not a lightest or the most best looking.

                            Should we all make a comment on that thread saying we are All "Very very very interested"?




                            Time will tell if it's a scammer.
