Have a post looking for a Vortex 4000 HD GB. Get to PMs from @KillShod number 1 346-239-1195 and @Barronpreciate number 208-285-2598. Both messages included their phone numbers they sent photos of the items even with their user names.

Killshods phone number does not connect to a voicemail when you call it. @Barronpreciate calls from a Seattle number 1-206-278-7857. I asked the person why he was calling from a different number than the one provided and he had no reason besides saying he was out of town for business.

How do we continue to do private transactions on these forums if we have to deal with scum bags trying to rip us off? Paid subscription to weed out these people? Have to tread carefully now.
 
Feedback is your friend. Do business with WKR’s and people that have a lot of positive feedback. Ask for specific pictures and only pay PayPal G&S.
 
Just pay the PayPal fees, it's cheap purchase insurance. And pass on anyone unwilling to go that route.

I've only purchased a few bows online but I've done thousands of dollars of swimbait transactions over 10 years and the one time I've been scammed PayPal got me squared away no problem. I haven't heard from anyone in that circle of friends ever having an issue getting a full refund when paying goods and services. It's frequently the people paying F&F for a "great deal" who get burned.
 
Never hurts to do a video chat or just a video of the item as well. If it's a pair of socks I wouldn't bother, but for a pair of 2000$ binos do your due diligence.
