Back in the early fall I needed to sell a couple of pistols in order to get cash for other purchases. I sold them here on algunforum, and both were cash sales. The first one was a combination of cash app and cash, which was ok except the cash included a counterfeit $100 bill. The bank notified me about 30 minutes after I deposited it (probably a week or so after the deal). The bank asked me if I knew where I got it and I told them I did, but I would not tell them. I guess I should have. I notified the purchaser and he said he did not pay me with any $100 bills. Except he actually gave me 3 of them (the other 2 were ok). Needless to say he offered no help in the matter. The second purchaser was great! Before I did that deal I educated myself on all the things to look for. It’s really easy if you look at and feel the bill.
Anyway, my experience has been that unless it is a trade deal, it will be a cash deal. I had never had any problems before that one, but it was a painful learning experience. Do your research and learn what to look for. Avoid my experience.
And by the way, I have not seen that person on here since I confronted him. I am not on here much any more, but the times I have been he has not been. He was on here a lot. Of course, he could have changed his name on here, so beware. I talked to another person who had sold him a gun and they said he still owed them some money. No idea if it was the same issue.
Stay vigilant!
