All my arms list deals involve me, the buyer and my buddy as backup in the truck if things head south. I take a gun and I figure they do too, seeing as they're buying/selling one to/from me. Can never be too careful.

Yep, to most replies,,,I broke one of my own main rules in this deal,,,Always talk to the other end on the phone and verify phone #. For how much that`s worth a man can get some idea of who he`s dealing with.,,,,anyway time will tell. I look OS classified over first before I ever get too serious about buying a weapon,,,Guess I have been lucky...Thanks jay

Ok here`s the gospel of said deal,,


As some of OS`s members might remember where I was trailing a Ruger SP 101 327 Federal Magnum revolver.
I posted WTB on Armslist National list in search of said pistol. Did not hear from anyone until maybe two weeks later. http://www.armslist.com/posts/10013...----sp-101--327-fed-3-16--ss-6rd-revolver...I got a reply from this individual,,,I checked the address he gave me,,actually found and saw the house on Google Earth. Sent a cashiers ck marked for the gun, and tracked it until usps priority mail showed delivery of check. Didn`t hear another word for two days,,,sent him another email requesting he honor his deal,,,was there a problem.
I get another email stating, yes there is a problem, and the sincerest apology an a**hole can conjure up. He said,,,He had placed the said pistol in a gun-shop at the same time he posted it on armslist hoping for a quick sale. He stated that gun shop had sold pistol and deposited the money in HIS bank acct,,,Liar, Now I am getting pissed an concerned knowing I am being scammed and nothing I can do. He says, and sends me a picture of a Colt Python and for 400.00 more he will sacrifice his gun since deal was going down the tubes,,,Bs. I send him an email demanding a full immediate refund and that was what I thought was the end gate, since not another word from him did i receive.
I am sitting around breathing fire,,,I says to myself,,,I am gonna pursue this as far as I can,,I ain`t the rollin over kind...I call the State attorney`s office in Utah and got hold of the nicest lady agent possible. She gave me all the info and #`s to call to make it rough on the recipient of my check, see she was being used as a pawn to forward these monies from several other buyers of the same pistol. The money was eventually going to Nigeria.
Got ahead of myself some,,Hang on,,I got in tough via the Atty Gen lady,,from the State bureau of investigation office, They assigned a SGT detective to the case and he and his pards went callin on this lady recipient of MY money, Anyway, trying to get the jest of this out,,That detective called me after I had given up and wanted to know if he could share my contact info with woman,,I said H*** yes, let`s get to it. Anyway she called me and is supposed to be mailing me a 580.00 refund. Also a man in Indiana bought the same pistol. When push came to shove,,I think she had been put in the fire and was thinking jail might not be such a good option,,,I have every word of this ordeal stored...I learned something from this,,,I hope,,,Any questions,,,just ask...Thanks...Jay

Man, I just can't read all of the run on sentences.
Hope it works out for you.
