    X-MAG What happened?

    Alright somebody here has to know what happened with this listing

    http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...id=p2761.l1259

    It smelt of scam to me especially when I emailed the seller and he offered me the gun for $460 shipped

    So did some lucky AO'er make out with a great deal or did he pull it because it was a scam?

    It had 2 bids on it before he pulled it.

          If it was real (which I HIGHLY doubt) it would be a better deal than what Steven got. Props on that one Steven.

              I totally forgot about that guy. I even talked to him about it. He was there to pick up a charger. Don't know why he didn't play. Well, both of you guys got killer deals.

                  Good luck. I would say you are on the right track with a phone number and address. But in the world of Go phones that still doesn't mean much.

                  If I were you (and this is what I was planning on doing if he accepted my offer) i would try to find someone local to him to go and make the exchange.

                  Or have him ship first.

                  i'll tell you this. I HAVE been scammed on ebay before. Same thing but a higher price tag. Good luck.

                            hah. i was the 3rd bidder and i offered him way more but he didnt contact me. i wonder if he is trying to keep it below a certain limit to not be a felony or whatever.
