Some people dont understand the principles of honor and deals with a handshake.... get one negative rating and see how hard ut us to sell.... we are our own stewards

Clearly you don't and it's spelt honour in Canada.
If there was honour and a hand shake why would you need the vendors birthdate? Honour and hand shakes are about trust, not paranoid collecting of others information.

Been reading this emotionally charged thread with a few giggles, until I read this. DOB is actually a piece of information which you want to protect. Think about it, when you have to prove to a credit card vendor, bank, Customs, or CRA your identity - one critical question they ask you is DOB. If someone asks for my DOB, I refuse - as I had an individual do on the EE once. PAL number, name and even address is fine when selling a firearm.

As a seller, I am very willing to provide information to the buyer as I will not release the (rifle in most cases) without the EMT or cheque clearing first. The information provided allows the buyer to know who I am and that I exist with the CFO.

As a buyer, unless I know, or have previously interacted, I check out seller by asking for PAL#, name and addy - then I EMT. Had wonderful experiences so far on the EE.

Bingo! Somebody gets it. The vendor has no need to release this information.

So, post your info on the forum... Prove me wrong.

Talk of trader ratings means nothing in the real word, kiddo. I'm telling you how to protect yourself and your too slow to see it.

Ps. Note I joined last month. Do the math.... I do more deals on average than you, oh wise one.
 
This thread makes no sense. Simple rules to follow and you will never get burned. Look at a guys trader rating. If he has one then deal with the guy or girl. If no trader rating or a low one only deal in person. There are a lot of guys offering guys with little or no trader rating and very low prices. For those it is buyer beware. If you follow these simple rules you will never get burnt.

If you are too much of a troglodyte to see difference between open forum and private message and dont understand honor or (honour) I cant help you grasshopper. ...
 
This thread is going nowhere fast!! Methinks it is denigrating into another hopeless slagfest and sniffing to see whom has the biggest supply of testoserone - well beyond the good points and issue Guntech was trying to raise in the first place.
 
Anyone who wishes to do an EMT to a gmail account, being given only a name and an unlisted phone number is free to do so.
