Not all forum members are honest!

Have you ever been cheated by another forum member? I recently purchased a 10-22 from another forum member. Shipping was lengthy but that was USPS problems not the seller. Package arrived well packed. I arrived at my local gun shop about 15 minutes after package was delivered. I loaned my pocket knife to my dealer to open the box. First thing I noticed was there were no magazines with rifle, it was advertised with four. With paperwork completed I carried the rifle straight home. When I sat down at my bench with the rifle I noticed the scope and base were loose and moving around. I removed the scope and found the front two screw holes in receiver were completely stripped out. I notified seller who had good feedback by the way, that I had not received the advertised magazines and the receiver was stripped. He said the magazines were an oversight and he would send them. He sent three not the advertised four. Then he told me that my local gun shop must have stripped the screw holes while they had it. I related the events as they happened. His response was and I qoute "not my problem " Been buying equipment on site for years with great results. Everyone I have purchased from on this site has been 100 percent honest until now! Guess there always has to be at least one A Hole even on the Best Shooting Site on the ole interweb! Vent complete!

yes unfortunatly anytime you get a group of people there will be some bad apples. i- knock on wood- havent had any problems here so far but its just a matter if time i imagine. Id say this forum is one of the best though. Its just not a perfect world. On a good note -ihope- though academy sports just opened a store 30 miles from me. hopefully you can get ur 1022 fixed relatively easy. that AL should be easy to DT
 
For the rest of us here, you NEED to post his name. You would not want anyone else on this forum to get screwed like it appears you were.
