As for mine I told PayPal about it. Waiting on them to do something. Would be nice to get my money back but if I don't then at least he won't be able to use PayPal to screw anyone if that's what he did

Obviously most will disagree, but I do believe a buyer is responsible for asking for any clarification when buying something used.
You should change your handle from Cal74 to "Caveat Emptor 222".....  Now that is funny!!! Not that anything about this deal is funny. There is no question that Cal74 misrepresented the condition of the Sako that he sold to Kingston and his refusal to stand behind his sale says volumes about him. 'Sorry for Kingston, as you expect most guys to treat each other with honesty and integrity. You expect to get screwed by a pawnbroker, not by a guy with over 5,700 posts and several years of participation of this site.

So basically he discounted s&h, ffl receipt , and his travel, which if I remember correctly he said was more than $100, so really didn't discount the gun, just pd a portion of the return costs. What a fpos.

Never been back. Figure he died.

Rick should have some kind of standard warning that gets tagged to people like him.

...he refused a return on a pitted bore, along with the other issues ??? Cal74 is a POS He is no good. Everyone should be warned not to deal with him.

In today's mail I found a check from Cal74. He returned $90 for the ammo that wasn't shipped and refunded $100 of the purchase price. Did you declare you wanted a discount ?, or were you planning to return the gun ? He refused a return. My preference would have been to return the rifle and scope on his dime. If the action is still good,re-barrel it. Which means that instead of having the L46 in good to very good condition that was advertised and paid for, you have an L46 in only fair condition, and now with a non-original barrel, and for a good deal more money. The seller should have taken this rifle back with good grace, refunded the money and apologised.

...If the action is still good,re-barrel it. Bad advice for a rifle he got through deceit and which surely would always be a reminder of the trickery played on him. Since the seller refuses to do the right thing, I would resell it, right here on the fire, with full disclosure and photos of all issues, and include links to these threads. Take the loss, get it behind me, and certainly not throw good money after bad.
