Listening to J.J. Cale right now, Hajduk. Anyone who promotes J.J. has got to be a good guy. Merci beaucoup! Kevin

Be wary of selling to new joiners who their first message is to you on the day they join. Had two in tow days.

@Gavin666
I fit that category but didn't message you but did others as I'm looking to add a few pieces to my collection. I'm not sure it's all that uncommon is it? I was looking for a CPO shirt and some flannels and just discovered there was a BST forum so joined to buy some things. Not sure it's really risky as I'd pay Venmo or PayPal F&F and don't think there's any way to claw that back, especially Venmo. Just adding my two cents here as I'm brand new. Happy to verify anything with anyone.

@Gavin666 please state here why and who they are, if you think it’s something that needs to be addressed by the Mods. If you are not comfortable posting the information here, please message us privately.

We do not tolerate scammers and they will be removed immediately.

Please note: We use discretion when deciding who is a scammer. On occasion it’s just people who haven’t figured out our system or are used to making deals. That is truly between the sellers and potential buyers. We will not get involved in those situations.

@goosehd hi Goose. I had two people join immediately and messaged me saying they were interested. When I replied heard nothing from either and neither had sent a message nor posted anything else. They could well be ok as another person mentioned but it stunk of the Facebook - “is it available” starting message. Just want to make sure no one gets caught out, etc.

Heads up to all who just contacted the mod squad regarding a user named “adam” who was using the “hey, I see you’re looking for, please contact…” outside of the forum scam.

Thank you all! Special thanks to @chillmonroe and @bluemantra for alerting the mod squad regarding this

We can’t do what we do without your help.

The user has been banned!!!

Hi All -

Wondering what your thoughts are on when a seller would delete their listing for an item they are trying to sell, once they have received payment from a buyer but before they have shipped the item out/provided buyer the tracking info. Is this something normal, or is there reason to be concerned here?

Thanks!

[goosehd]

@ohmufasa if they have marked the item as sold, then it is removed by me from the forum.

gotcha! Alright, thanks for confirming!
