    Rant

    Bought a scope off Knightrider
    Paid him and the scope arrived the next day
    Just what I expected of sales on here.

    Gaz, a mate of mine has a TX200HC .22 but wanted a PCP
    So I said no drama, Someone will jump at the chance of this.

    He said are "you sure?", I said "Its going to be fine as its an established member"

    Deal done. Arranged to meet up yesterday at 1PM at Burton, Booked a day off work
    Gaz lives near Sleaford, so he booked a day off work and travelled over to come with me to collect.

    Gaz arrives at 11.50 here Nottm

    2 hour round trip for him.

    Got a Whatsapp text from the seller at 12.00 saying he's changed his mind and is keeping the Artemis.

    Bell end.

    That's a bit out of order.

    Unfortunately there are an excess of timewasters on this forum. My recent favourites were a member offering a “nominal sum” in payment for something my Brother was selling, and another offering just the postage costs in exchange for an old air rifle. I had one member interested in an air gun, took my bank details and address but then couldn’t buy due to a family tragedy - didn’t stop him from buying other stuff mentioned in his posts at the same time though, strange….. Thank God for all the decent folk that are on here too! For the rest - if you don’t really want it, or can’t afford it stop dreaming and do something more productive!
