Selling to new traders

[jonjon123]

I've sold many firearms on this site and am wondering have any of you guys dealt with brand new traders for trading? All of my past trading have been relatively good reviewed traders and have been members for years. Sketchy or is there something out there that I don't know about? I.E robbing, police etc. Any experience with this?

I would not travel far for deals from newbies. There are a few reports of them not showing up, selling to another buyer after deal is set...that kind of thing.
Also be aware of scammers, wanting you to send funds before they ship....especially out of state.
Just what i have seen

Did members have a problem dealing with you when you were new ?
Maybe give the new members the same chance you were given.
1 cannot prove themselves unless given a chance.

I've popped many an ODT cherry. Honestly because I browse in mobile, I never even see post counts or feedback until I go to post feedback. I have yet to have any issues.

I have sold to folks that signed up that day. I will not travel at all, just meet where convenient for me.

Every time, it worked out just fine.

Make them drive to you. Don’t go out of your way.

No problem giving the newb a chance. But im not giving ‘anyone’ the chance to rip me off either

I'm just being curious and cautious. Some of the "new" traders are like 1-2 days old and didn't want to be ignorant of some new thing going on if there was one.
