Wow, from excitement to confusion! The guy I am to buy the Baker from, said it mine and the price was all agreed upon. I sent him my address to ship it to and asked him his address to send a U.S. Postal M.O. to. In the middle of the night (he is in N.Y. and I am in Ohio, so same time zone) he sends an email that he wants me to wire him the money to his savings account. Hmmm, did you ever get nervous on a buy? He may be on the up and up, but... So I try to call him and it goes to voice mail, I want the name of his bank and their ph. no. I also asked again for the 3rd time his address. I wait several hours and I hear nothing from him. Well, he may be at work. So I just now called again and it goes to voice mail. What is the deal on not giving me an address to send money to? Maybe the guy thinks I am going to come over an rob him, heck I don't know. I am a Realtor, so I know how to access the auditors site to see if he has an address that he at least would own. He doesn't own any property, but that doesn't by any means that he is not an up standing guy, but I can't reach him that way. I then call an office in the town he lives in, to see about his phone no., he doesn't have a land line, only a cell phone. But he wants me to put money in his acct. and I won't even get a tracking number to follow the gun? I then send him an email. Well after several hours, the email bounces back! What is going on. This all started when by a fluke, I as looking through FleaBay last week Wed. and this gun pops up. Then after 3 days, it is gone and no one bought it at the buy now price. Before it came down I had asked for pictures, as none were posted on the auction. Once it came down, I called him because I had been ready to pull the trigger and buy the gun. I wanted to see if the gun was still available as in a previous ph. call I mentioned to him that I was surprised to see on FleaBay as they don't permit the selling of guns, but that I was interested in the gun. He answers that the gun is still available, but that his auction was pulled by FleaBay. Then he tells me of a change and ups the price $400, telling me that he had 2 other guys trying to buy it. I tell him I was a buyer at the buy now price, but I was sure one of the other 2 guys, would be happy to buy it. Then, he emails me yesterday to tell me he will sell me the gun at the agreed "buy now" price. At this moment, I still have that love affair going for an early Baker SBT. But the feelings on this seller is getting an odor to it. I still would like to buy the gun, if it can be safely bought, but how could that be done? If it is truly there to begin with?
