Scope Identification

You don't know when to quit do you? You got on your high horse first and now calling me a c u n t ?? That's rich and super classy..... I'll be the grown up here and stop

Have a great day
 
You Sir actually really are one. You falsely accuse me of taking a photograph of one scope and selling another when it will be proven to be otherwise. The buyer gets a much better product that he was expecting due to my mistake. I would feel terrible were it the other way around and would be returning the EMT but as it happens I am quite OK with it. You, on the other hand are someone I will never do business with and I think readers of this thread will see you for what you are: a person who has no part in the transaction and someone who makes false accusations and who does not retract such allegations.

Let me be clear: You either fail to understand something or you choose not to understand something and it is this: I am only angry because you say I photographed one scope and sold another one. Please understand that I couldn't care less that the scope I sold was worth a lot more than I listed and sold it for. That was my mistake and I am ok with it. What I will not forgive is your accusation that I photographed a 'better' scope in order to sell a 'lesser' scope. I trust that when the buyer receives his scope he will compare it to the one photographed and confirm that it is indeed the one pictured.

Let me also say this: You, Bucktomcat, were correct - the scope I sold has Zero Stop - that's great; it's better than advertised and bravo on your recognition of NF turrets. The buyer will be getting a huge bonus because of my mistake or forgetfulness of what features the scope had but I am totally OK with that. Thankfully my mistake was in his favor and not the other way around. Bottom line is that the buyer will get the scope in the photo.

I really am out of ways to say this - There was only one NF NXS in my possession; the one I photographed was the one I sold. I am only mad because of your false accusation nothing else.
 
Just so everyone knows that there are good people out there here is an excerpt from a PM the buyer just sent me:

"I am also fine shipping it back to you, and you can relist it at whatever price works"

While I take my hat off to the buyer (Homesteader) for offering to unwind the deal - what an absolute gentleman - here is an excerpt of my response to him:

"Oh no - a deal is a deal. It was my mistake but, really, I'm OK with it - I meant what I wrote on the open thread; that the only reason I am mad is because that clown alleged that I took a nice pic of a top-tier item in order to sell a lesser item. I would feel terrible if I had made the mistake the other way around but as I see it you get a better than hoped for deal and I really hope you enjoy it."

I hope folks will understand that most people on CGN are good people and that people like 'Bucktomcat' are, thankfully, in the minority.

Bob, just by seeing the maturity of your replies, the immaturity of buck tomcat, we do see both sides of the medal and yours looks like the most honest one.

I can see 2 things in this thread
1. Bob : When selling high end items, put a piece of paper next to item with CGN handle and date in a picture, i swear it will save you some aggravation sooner or later
2. bucktomcat had just made my list of people never to deal with on CGN
 
MartyK2500 - good advice and thank you.

In a total of 268 transactions on here I've never been accused of misrepresentation before and was really surprised and irritated when the Tomcat fellow said I had posted a picture of something other than what I was selling and so I responded perhaps too abruptly and said "Wrong - the one pictured is the one I photographed this afternoon and then put back in my safe. It is the 8-32x56 with no ZS. Why would I put up a picture of anything other than the scope I am selling ????"

Of course, as it happens, I'd forgotten the no ZS one was sold a long time ago and that the one I'd pictured did have ZS but, again, thankfully my mistake was in the buyers favor.

Again, thanks for your support.

I did post an actual pic of the scope I sold - my mistake was in thinking it wasn't a zero stop model. As it happens the buyer got an even better deal than he thought he was getting as the scope that is pictured is the scope that was sold and is the scope that is now in the hands of Canada Post.

Of course you - Bucktomcat - could have said " Hey Tomochan - I think you have made a mistake etc etc " but you chose to be a Charlie Uniform Nancy Tango and accuse me of photographing one item and selling another which is false and insulting. Best part of this whole deal is that you didn't get to buy it !

THAT right there just made my day! Hilarious and to the point at the same time. Seems this Tomcat fellow doesn't see the truth in this matter, but I am glad the buyer was good to you and offered to return it, and even better on you for sticking by the deal and taking it on the chin.

Tomochan-classy guy and trustworthy.
Bucktomcat-Charlie Uniform Nancy Tango....suck it up cupcake!
 
You can clearly see 32 on the mag ring in pic 1.

There's no reason for this thread. Some nobody pm'd you, who was not the buyer, and it wasn't public.

Could have been the bigger man and left it at that...
 
I on the other hand, think that openly typing about transactions or in this case a 3rd party not even involved in transactions could all make us better buyers and sellers if we pay attention.

After have being burnt hard by someone here this year, i pay attention and take mental notes on how people are dealing with each other.

Let me get this clear. I look at an item, I ask for clarification because the item in the picture doesnt match the description, the OP loses his S H I T and I'm the A hole??
The insanity here is an an all time high!

Crashman if you're gonna use the phonetic alphabet to spell C U N T then do it properly at least it makes you look like a Nancy!
Over and out
 
The real problem is you jumped all over me when I simply pointed out the pic doesn't match the description. You insisted it did so I called BS.

Really ?

Here is what you wrote:
"Do you have a good picture of the actual scope?
The one pictured is a ZS 22x model I believe"

My response:

"Wrong - the one pictured is the one I photographed this afternoon and then put back in my safe. It is the 8-32x56 with no ZS. Why would I put up a picture of anything other than the scope I am selling ????

As it happens it sold in a matter of minutes."

I may have been abrupt and, yes, I was clearly incorrect in understating the features of the scope but I suggest that my response is far from the bowel voidance that you claim.

Now here is where I got really mad:

You:

"Actually I'm not wrong the one big picture you had on there showed a scope with zero stop turrets....the non zero stop was in the background on a different gun"

At that point the implication was clear - you allege a second NXS was in the background on a different gun and therefore I'm putting a pic up of one scope to sell another. In the picture there are indeed two NF scopes but only one NXS - the one I photographed and sold. The one in the background is, in fact, a new NF ATACR F1 7-35x56 not a non zero-stop one.

You then doubled-down on the false accusation:

".....why did you take the pictures down so fast?? Because it was the wrong scope!................. You sold it fast good for you $50 under retail now thats a score for sure!"

Clearly you were by now alleging that I'd performed the old 'smoke and mirror' game - show a pic of a premium optic and rip someone off by selling a lesser one at $50 under retail. Was I mad ? You bet I was mad!

I truly couldn't care that I misremembered that the scope I sold had a zero stop - it has gone to a fellow who will enjoy it and the loss of several hundreds of dollars is of no consequence to me but you are a libelous, no good piece of work and I hope people on here see you for what you are.

I guess my weird sense of humour has taken advantage of me again. This thread is a little more hostile than what I read into and I apologize for my contribution, I guess in my weird way I thought I was laughing with you.
