Title: Anyone on this site is a member of Airgun Nation? Pls Forward PM message
Post by: SpringerGuy on September 24, 2023, 12:55:56 PM
       
        Not an AirGun Nation member, too.  If you are a member please help me. 

        Please send a Private Message (PM) on the AGN website to "CTShooter" RE: Classified Ad on AirGun Nation (AGN).  Please include my email address 
        in GM so CTShooter can contact me.

          PM CTShooter - WTB guns vintageairguncollector@gmail.com 


 Not an AGN member so I have no way to contact CTShooter on AGN site PM system.  Thank you for your kindness.

Randall,

It seems odd that you would not sign up on AGN, even if you do not plan to spend a lot of time there.

Anyway, I sent a PM to CTShooter with a link to your post on GTA, and the full text of your message.  Then I also provided your other email address:  rdmur530@yahoo.com

I think that a number of people have a gut feeling about your post that is going to make them reluctant to contact that guy on AGN.  After a day of contemplation I decided that he can simply ignore my PM if he is so inclined.  You do seem to have a presence on various sites, trading airguns.

Got a reply:  "please ask him to reach out to me via GTA messaging. I am on GTA under the same username."


Here is his profile and his PM:

It would be interesting to see how this one played out.

It would be interesting to see how this one played out.

I guess it could play a few different ways. I mean I get a PM on AGN saying reach out to a guy on gmail - I am skeptical. But they did leave a link to this thread (smart idea). So I post here and if the buyer wants to contact me on PM I am happy to discuss it. Will I take this conversation to gmail - not likely - keep it in the forum where a moderator could see it.

Honestly - my risk as a seller is lower than that of the buyer. If this was a WTB I would very likely ignore the whole thing.

Hopefully the OP reaches out and we can work together on what they are looking to buy.

Yes, It is an odd approach to say the least. But I see you have your eyes open.

From clarity to confusion:

Randy,  you went from "I bought a cheaper one", sounding like you lost interest in the original one you were desperate to talk about to CTShooter.  Followed up by, "I still want to buy your Hyscore".

My sincere apologies if I was facilitating a potential scam.  Because the exchange sounds fishy.  Or fishier.

SpringerGuy - while you may be on the up and up, I'm just not getting the warm and fuzzy and feel our dealings will not work out. Best of luck your search for vintage airguns.

If there was a "Strange Request" gate on here I believe this thread would be at the top.

Subscriber - You are entitled to your opinion. 

It was my opinion, that trying to help you would be a reasonable action.

My current opinion is that I should unsubscribe from this thread, because, as it turns out, I can't help you.  So; bye.

Just to back the OP up, he is not a member of AGN. But is an avid collector and has been for several years. He is NOT a scammer or someone trying to pull a fast one on anyone!!! He COULD simply join AGN and send the member a message but we all know that takes time to complete. He was afraid to lose the airgun he was looking to buy. It seems they have been able to make contact here on GTA. Good deal. I just wanted to clarify he is NOT a scammer and is a legit collector!!!
Thanks for all that have helped or offered help. That's what this community is all about, helping each other out.

SAFE & Happy Shooting!!!!
Dave
