    Got Scammed for $20...oh well

    I don't know if she ever posted here, her name is anna kalinka from San Diego (not really worthe the drive) and she had tacticle slings for $10, I ask her if it was a single point sling, she said yes, what she sent me was some discontinued weird *****. My fault is I bought it sight un-seen and I bought two..I guess I was willing to gamble..Anyways lesson learned

    Hmmm....scammed would suggest that you paid money for goods or services that were never delivered IMO. Do you have pics of the items you purchased?

      I got you beat on scammed for twenty dollars.

      Some guy tried to sell my some video cards once. He said they were "OEM." I insisted on testing them and they booted up with "Engineering Sample" on the screen and didn't work well.

      I gave him twenty dollars "for his time" and sent him off.

      I don't know why I did that. Gave twenty bucks to a guy for failing to offload falsely advertised, probably stolen goods on me...?

      Scammed myself.

        I bought speakers from the back of a van once.

        They worked pretty good but nothing like what they claim.

          Bait and switch is also being scammed, as is misrepresentation of goods...

          Though not seeing a picture its hard to say that =P

          Still sucks!

                    The speaker thing isn't a scam, it's a lot like those guys who sell meat from trucks too.

                    The speakers are usually half decent, but the prices they show you how much they 'actually' sell for is BS. Even when you're getting a great deal, they're still making a decent amount of money.

                      Sometimes it is worth it to loose $20 so you (or anybody else on this forum) will never have to deal with an unscrupulous person ever again.

                        Pssht! We got scammed out of 8,000 dollars by Wells Fargo Financial who failed to tell us they put an prepayment on our loan (when we told them we wanted none.)....be assured they will pay up....

                        BTW...DO NOT get WFF, they will try to screw you!

                              If it makes a hole in a paper far away, it's all good.
