Wondering if MM has a list of buyers to be aware of (scammers) and folks that are vetted?
I posted (for my brother in law) to buy 7mm SAUM brass and havent had the best experiences with either person. My brother in law is a cop so he is not a huge user of social media (for obvious reasons-especially his current assignment on a gang unit) so I am just helping find brass for his new rifle.
Here is our recent finding:
New member "BDrills" says his friend "Tony" has 50 pieces of brass for sale and gives me Tony's email. I contact Tony and he sends me a picture of a lifetime supply of 7mm SAUM brass (~900 pieces of Nosler, Remington, and Norma) so I send my brother in law the info and let them take care of the deal.
My brother in law settles with the guy for ~$900 for the brass (smoking deal btw). Tony also wants a certain friends and family Paypal function for payment. My brother inlaw turns up that "Tony" was recently arrested in Tennessee for running an illegal gambling operation. Deal is off and Tony is not happy.
I share this because I just got another PM from "Heckler303" (new member-anyone know him?) that has a friend that has 7mm SAUM brass for sale and is another new member (Hockett927).
Is the brass stolen? Probably.
IF any of the new members mentioned above would like to validate themselves, please do so.
Thanks,
Jeff
P.S.
Admins,
Coueswhitetail.com has a great "pinned" post for good/bad guy sellers in its classifieds. Just a thought if MM doesn't.
