Jason - thanks for the warning. I'd be interested in learning the dealer's name.
I, also, have been burned by gross misrepresentions of guns in internet sales. Unfortunately, not refunding shipping and FFL fees when a gun is grossly misrepresented appears to be the standard operating procedure for some sellers. I suggest we all work together to protect ourselves against this predatory practice by compiling a list of such sellers, who we can then steer clear of.
Perhaps we all follow the precedure set out by Jason, here, where we post our experience of a bad faith seller, and privately email the seller's name to anyone who requests it. Those who choose to participate then keep their own list and avoid listed sellers as they see fit.
The market for quality used doubles is small enough that the list should become complete relatively quickly. This has the added benefit of tending to drive business to the deserving, honest sellers.
