    I know that I'm playing the Devil's Advocate but how long have you waited for the seller to respond ?

    Be sure to search the good deals thread with their nickname before buying from anyone on here, if they have a low post count especially avoid! but hopefully that's not the case here...

    I would agree, people have things to do other than be on the BBS, some of us are harder to contact than others & some issues are only personal opinion of condition.
    bit different if there's something obviously broken or missing that the seller lied about.

    Send a detailed PM or e-mail & allow time for a reply, as in a day or two not a few minutes, if not sorted after a week / several messages back & forth, that's the time to involve the mods.

    I am the seller. I sent this man an email and a PM yesterday evening offering to send him a postage label to return tha gun to me and i will then refund his money.
    Even though he knew that a seal securing ring had become detached he still attempted to shoot the gun, unwise and dangerous. Once I am sure that this action has not caused damage I will refund his money.
    So Far I have received no response.

    I could'nt respond last night i was in hospital, i did NOT damage the gun in anyway & was not initially aware what the securing ring was, i later suspected what it might be. U seem to be looking for a way to evade a refund, i have been shooting airguns for 65 years as well as firearms i would never ever do any thing dangerous with a gun, & would not come on the bbs & make such allegations about another person online ever & i had avoided naming U on line to try keep things civil shocked @ your outburst M
