Since he contacted me direct I am sure he saw my ad on another web page. Beware of this guy. I am counting it as a lesson learned. I should have bailed when he pulled the PayPal donation thing.

I paid $216 with PayPal for a 30 Cal 700 mm barrel kit that I had advertised a want for on Airgun Nation and another web page after verifying by him sending a picture and exchanging texts, emails and phone calls. He wanted know if I would do family & friend PayPal and I said no because it gives me no protection and I would add $6 to cover cost of PayPal. He then sent me a link to pay by PayPal donation to his daughter’s account. That should of thrown up a red flag but I wasn’t familiar with that so I paid it. I now know that that form of PayPal offers no protection.
I payed on Saturday October 23 and he said he would ship Monday and send tracking number. That didn’t happen and I talked to him on the phone Monday evening and he promised a tracking number by this morning. Morning has come and gone and he doesn’t answer phone, return voice mail, or texts.
