hookbones Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 stalker stung me £35 ...the sender sent a cheque for £30 to cover it but as it was £5 short stalkers owner kicked off in the most undignified manner ...im stood there with a fiver in my hand sayin "look its ok iv got it here" ...after a few mins scowling he begrudgingly took the £5 but it was looking like he wouldnt for a moment there... stalker..great lads working under a lump of cold ---- !

pandamonia Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 why do you have to use an RFD if your buying from a mate why not just meet half way? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See....you'd make a huge saving of £1.47 and see your mate as well! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveB916 Posted January 6, 2010 Report Share Posted January 6, 2010 I thought you didn't need two RFD's, a private seller can ship to an RFD via approved courieir who sign for gun ? Dave B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
