Just lookin' from the outside in it seems like olthunter is working to do the right thing. I could be wrong but it doesn't seem that way....

He got jumped on pretty hard in a real short time....

Simple really.


Thanks guys, now that i know the protocal, I will follow suit, so I will tell Lever $325 take it or leave it, then jim, then you, than the next offer. thanks for not jumping on me either! no hard feelings VAnimrod


No hard feelings. Too many crawfish, and it had all the ear marks.

Good move, and good show.


Understandable, this is my first time selling a rifle through forums and online, so evidently didn't do it right and miscommunicated my intentions. I am an avid hunter/gun owner and honorable/respectful in all aspect of life.

Sounds like you're trying to do the right thing. Good for you.

You'll have a lot less problems in the future if you list an item for sale on one forum only and honor the first "I'll take it". If it doesn't sell in a reasonable time frame of your choosing then delete it from that forum and move it to another one if you wish.

Thanks JCMCUBIC! Seems we have it cleared up, I was ignorant of procedure doing this and what constitutes an offer, and along the way there was a big miscommuication

Makes sense, I'm just trying to use some business sense and get it to as many people as I can in as quick of a time, in all honesty, I didn't expect 3 offers here within an hour! Didn't know doing that was a forums no-no

Not as nasty a dust-up as some threads, but a quick classifieds tutorial, nonetheless.

Here's hoping Levers is thrilled with his rifle, Olthunter gets his $ lickety-split, & we welcome another hunter to the fire.

He is doing the right thing, first offer to lever, second to Jolin and a pm giving me third rights, I believe he thought a pm was kinda the lingo for the contract and didn't seriously believe there were some folks truly jumping on it as he had zero traffic on other sites, I am giving him the benefit of the doubt as he seems very legit in his pm. Welcome to the fire there Olt and thanks for the pm.

Looks like a sale at your terms to me. If I was Levers I'd not deal with you.


The only thing I'm an expert at is my own opinion, and I have plenty of those!

it's that crystal clear to you huh? doesn't look too firm to me

Another question to all, what's the protocol for trying to move this gun as quick as I can and haven't heard back from a potential buyer? 24 hours?

24 hours seems reasonable, unless you post some sort of time restrictions. Many people only sign on once a day or so.

I had to drive into town and just got back. I'm good to go on the $325. I think we can take this to payment, shipment, delivery, & shooting.....

Sounds like a well organized mass of confusion.
So, I'll offer $250 including shipping, if the first and second "takers" aren't successful. It's commom knowledge that auctioneers will start high trying to sucker in some country bumpkin, and then come down until someone bites. How's dem apples.

Shoot, is there a way to delete someone elses post? I was trying to delete Levers' post so the 24 hours passes, and then I would have a new .30 caliber....

Good snag Levers!
