    Unfortunately the "ill take it" goes two ways. I pmed a guy i had bought off in a FTF trade before, got pics and more info. Pmed right back with a "ill take it". Got radio silence for a couple of days with him checking the site, then finally he changed it to SPF and replied. Simply got added to my ignore list, not really a negative feedback since technically there was no transaction.

    One of the only at all negative experiences i have had on the EE. One other guy did not lie, simply withheld the truth. Something i cant understand or would not do. It was a sub $100 trade....a head scratcher.
    A free society must outlaw harming innocent people to function, but when we seek to curtail what all of us can do, rather than holding each of us responsible for what we actually do, we give up on freedom itself.

    My last EE transaction...I had 3 "I'll take it". 2 of them flaked out and stopped responding...the 3rd was a stand up guy and got the rifle (well, we're still waiting on the transfer). The Feedback Score is unbalanced the way seller's can't submit negatives. Don't say "I'll take it" then disappear. Man, that is just plain rude. But, it's not my forum and not my rules...

    Unfortunately there is a high tolerance on the Forum for time wasters and those committing to buy and bail out or don't reply.

    Define "high tolerance" two weeks and your deal still not done?
    Some would have moved on by day three others would have let it go a week and offered up to the next guy.
    It is what it is a free service to those who joined this forum of like minded people.
    You get what's you payze for.

    All of my transactions on EE have been super except for the last one. Wanted me to send a pic of gun with my PAL clearly visible, (um.... no), wants a bill of sale presumably before EMT (um.....no)........

    I buy more than I sell as a buyer it means my word. I have checked and confirmed that I have funds to buy the item by one of the payment methods specified and I will buy the item. If I back out I deserve bad feedback because I broken my word.

    I'm yet to have a bad experience. Every I'll take it has paid immediately.

    Now, its the "first to pay for it" rule.
    x2, first one to agree to send payment gets it.

Had a newbie who "claims to be someone of importance", wanted me to send a pic of gun with my PAL clearly visible, (um.... no), then we are using email to avoid the bother of GunNutz messaging, wants the gun, we exchange physical addresses to make him feel more comfortable, wants a bill of sale presumably before EMT (um.....no), then he asks about my employment...... all this is making me kinda nervous. Says he wants the gun and will do an EMT...... nothing for 2 days. I see he has checked into GunNutz but still silence. Kinda makes me think that he's not who he claims to be and is digging for personal info....... a hacker of sorts.
    Scammer not a hacker. They will try to use YOUR info/pal picture to purchase a firearm. Or to sell one that they do not own as you.
