I guess that means that in the 60 plus "For Sale" postings/over a two year period - there has not been a single feedback entry for this persons business transactions. It appears to me that selling guns might even be his business, as those are the only postings he has on here.

Is that good or bad, I don't know. I did feel that he was evasive in answering direct written (email) questions, preferring to use the phone. Yes, thats easier, but can lead to misunderstandings/denials of what was said/implied.

Now, my next question is: should I disclose the name? I don't think that would be right either. He has been a member much longer than I have. But it may just be that others (previously) felt the same way - and this could be a possible alert for the next guy thinking of buying from him.

Maybe I'm paranoid, but it was my $ on the line, and I felt uncomfortable.
