      I've shipped first on cash deals to people I "know". That being said you should have checked feedback - and at this point I would call the Allendale police, they tend to be pretty decent people and will likely at least knock on a door.

        shut it rob!!

        You have seen me on the field, I run up it.
        That running can also be done in a non-game situation

        Im not going to fist fight the guy but If I know a gun is stolen im not just going to sit around

          Paintball Talk is the main forum for Automags.org. Here is where we talk about the sport of paintball in general and make announcements relating to the forum and website.


          Yeh, I've been scammed by him. I've send you a PM regarding the situation, as I've not seen a resolution and I've totaly lost contact with him.

          What username is he visiting AO under if he's been dealing with you? His profile I'm aware of shows no activity since February...

            id wait till he looks away, nab it, and leave the field.... or i just ask him too see it, then say, i know its stolen, and im not giving it back
            What if he happened to be 6'7", 280, and the legitimate owner of one of the other two Shark Attack Xmags?

              I hate to say it, but you really made a mistake sending first. Especially an X-mag. Ouch.

                A friend of mine in michigan suggests the following:

                If it is USPS try going to their webiste and filing for mail fraud

                Also, since its went over a state line, it's a federal offense so the FBI can now be legally involved

                also, contacting him (allegan sheriff) here

                          I live VERY near Allegan. I may just have to check it out for ya. And I know Rick (the owner of TC Paintball in these areas) fairly well, I'll definately tell him to keep an eye out for it there!

                              He sold me a tank that he didn't have. First he claimed shipping problems with USPS. Said they would not ship a tank. Almost laughable! Then finally admitted that he didn't have the tank that he had 'for sale' in a pm. Deleted his 'For Sale' thread. Never returned the $'s I sent him. Ended up with another AO'er almost covering the amount that I sent to him. Then adrenaine left that guy poor feedback. I ended up losing only a few $'s but... Words of warning, BE CAREFUL!
