what about these slime balls that pm a potential buyer to tell them not to buy something from you, when they  have shown an interest?

 

depends what they say. could be being a good samaritan could be sabotaging. really depends on whos selling, whats for sale and whats been said.

How do you know that happens, if it’s done by PM?

Brownings made by Miroku bear the Browning name. The Medalist, although marketed by Browning, does not bear the Browning name. That is the difference, because it affects resale value.

100% Always will be

I listed a gun and some helpful soul who had tried to previously sell a similar one posted good luck with that nobody will touch em! 🤡

hello, slightly off topic but it seems we still have new members only wanting to buy or sell ??, 50 post rule ??

I must admit to often commenting on the private gun sales, but only making positive comments if I happen to have any knowledge or experience of the article for sale and wishing the seller good luck in selling it.

I just think that it`s bad form to make any derogatory or unhelpful remarks. These should be kept unsaid.

Not very helpful at all and totally unnecessary.

Gonna go hard line here: I wish people would refrain from even positive posts. “Cracking gun” or “bargain for someone “ adds nothing to the discussion and invariably irks the seller.

Maybe so but it does keep bringing their advert to the top of the page.

Totally disagree.

I think that positive remarks can only encourage a potential buyer, gives the seller a feel good factor and just do not understand how it `irks the seller`.
