ShottyBody had poor communication and there were red flags everywhere from the start. Had to follow up multiple times to get questions answered. We finally came to an agreement on his item and he said "...it's yours". I followed up with the day and time I could meet at his chosen FFL and also with my phone number so he could reach out to me for faster communication, which he never did. He read my message about the date and time but didn't respond with a "that won't work for me" but in all fairness he also didn't confirm. However, with him saying that the item was mine and not responding that the time wouldn't work, I decided to drive an hour and a half to the location because I did not want to risk getting negative feedback for being a no show. I messaged him the night before and the morning of to see if I could get a response from him but received nothing.
When I arrived at the FFL, I showed the workers there what I was coming to purchase from the pictures on ShottyBody's post. They informed me that he had came by the day before and sold the gun to his friend (highly doubtful it was someone else because it's a pretty rare gun to get right now).
It's one thing to go back on a made deal, but to not communicate that he had sold the gun a whole day prior and wasting a 3 hour round trip is shady. He eventually responded 2 hours after the meet that the gun was sold. Great... appreciate it.
He's a brand new member and is not off to a good start. Be weary when dealing with him, especially if you live far.
