  • Paypal warning must read

    be VERY carefull when buying/selling rifs via paypal.
    if somebody sells 1 then does a runner with the money paypal will tell you to sod off because according to them rifs are firearms/weapons and theyr not covered in their smallprint!!!
    iv just got off the phone to them after i got scammed and theyr settling the claim in the thieving sh*** favour!
    iv been advised to go through my bank and try to so a chargeback

        Yeah I've had the same issue.

        All the seller has to do is mention airsoft and he's won. That's why nowadays I think it's actually better to use bank transfer as you can at least get a charge back.

            Is the seller on here?

            That sounds like a common scam that a few people have come across of late.

                    looking at that m4 post, the thing that would get my spidey senses tingling....

                    mentions a custom stock tube, yet pics show stock collapsed....

                    if its too good to be true, it probably is

                    as for ebay, when i made a claim in the past, i refered to it as sporting goods,

                        Has everyone lost their mind? Buying off brand new users with no posts or feedback? Didn't even think to verify that the seller actually had the item?

                        This is like one of those tv shows where all the clueless biddies get scammed!

                        Only buy from people with posts, avatars and legit feedback. You can verify a seller has the item by asking them to take a picture of it on todays newspaper. Genuine new users should understand.

                          Yes and no to be honest.

                          As was proven recently, a prick had created at least five accounts and given himself feedback from all of them. He had all the criteria you mention (except legitimate feedback of course). At first glance, he looked like the real deal, but was looking to bum someone for their hard earned cash.

                          As Phatvortex says, verify sellers by asking as many questions as possible. Good guys will understand.
