Ironically both parties in this sale were under 18.

Right - it's shown when an ad is placed, but I would like it to be more visible to BUYERS as well. Haven't got around to posting it elsewhere.

I've turned down offers on stuff I'm selling becuase the person was under 18. I just don't want to deal with trying to make sure I have parental approval and what not.

Technically, my dad did the purchasing.....I was just gonna give him the $$$ and use it. Minor's gotta have his weapons too.....


And a buyer/seller feedback section would be nice....

The stuff I have sold in the classifieds here I will not even take money from a minor, I have their parents hand it to me. Gotta have respect for the people your buying from too, and realize something is wrong if they do not question you being a minor. Huge red flag if they are willing to sell to you directly. Hopefully karma will get him, because I do not see how you are gonna get your money back. Just be careful in the future, and learn from this. I myself had 2 m4s stolen from me from someone on these forums, cheap as they may have been, its still something that happens to everyone eventually, and I am glad it happened before it was a more expensive gun. Good luck.

This is why whenever I buy or sell I make sure to do it in person...
