I’m confused… I saw this in the classifieds. Wtf? Is there some forum rule I’m unaware of?
Asking if something is available gets you reported…?

Saw that some time back and just figured the feller was having a bad day. Seemed a bit off putting, really... but his item and he can sell it however he chooses, I reckon!
But if there is a forum rule, I've missed it as well.

Just popped back up
@Sqwirlfugger57 bahhahaha! Thank you but I’m actually not interested I was more wondering if there was some unwritten rule or sort of community faux pas.
I appreciate everyone clearing this up.

I asked him that same question a week before he posted that. I like Evanix. I saw it and noticed it was bumped back up many times. He never even responded. So I will not ever buy anything from him.

There are several of those guys in the firearms world, that apparently, just asking if it is still for sale after 9 months is out of character and rude. lol

I saw that ad as well. I thought he was joking actually ……
No rule to ask if it’s available that exactly the question everyone asks
So he really doesn’t want to sell it …..

He probably post stuff for sale on Facebook too and gets 8 million,"Is this available?" Then when you respond you never hear anything from them again. It gets really old. I can kind of understand why he would say that. Being fairly new to this site, I don't know if that's common here or not. I have noticed that usually the more focused a group is the less of that you have, so probably not.

Welcome
lots of good info here! If asking questions give as much detail as possible and what you tried/what didn’t work and you’ll usually get some seriously insightful responses.Upvote 0
Thank you. I have had multi pump guns since I was a kid and recently got my first pcp and am hooked. I'm sure I will be spending a lot of time here.Welcome

+1 on this. This also includes offer up and Craigslist. I normally will ask something genuine other than is this available? I add “ generic responses like Is this available? or auto responses, catches a block” when I place something up for sale on offer up.

I'm curious how many reading this asked him if it's still available???
Or how many asked him "reported for what"
LOL

Y’all are missing the point. Apparently, one of y’all is supposed to send him $700 and find out that way if it’s still available. Please let the rest of us know how that turns out. I looked for a red flag smiley but couldn’t find one!
