Howdy folks, I was told here would be a good place to post this. I've got a Zastava AKM (O-PAP) and a rifle-length MP5 clone (SW5) I was looking to sell to afford my ring. I figure a private sale would save enough margin to justify the work messaging people.

Edit: The rifles have been sold. Thanks for everyone's help, and a shout out to cslifer for being so easy to work with! Have a good day y'all.

Look, I'd love to help out and would genuinely be interested in the MP5 clone, but being a rookie poster is not going to help you. You can't post pictures and you don't have a documented history to know if anyone can trust you.

You heard about this from someone… can you get them to post pictures for you and potentially vouch for you?

Sign up for a premium account so you can post pictures plus having a credit card on file will help others with trust.

OB, don't send this guy money ahead of a deal in case that's not clear enough already.

Post on Texas gun trader. You can easily upload pictures and don't have to deal with all this kind of nonsense.

Actually you do, but some of those guys can be aholes overly cautious of getting scammed/robbed.

I guarantee you some jerk from out of state will attempt a long distance transaction. Post upfront no shipping whatsoever and cash in-person only with transfer documents. ThT should reduce the scammer/spamming.

He sure can post on gun trader, however, it's not non-sense. I would hope you can see the potential ramifications.

I kinda figured this was what OP was fishing for before I saw the post about Reddit.

Can someone skip the sarcasm long enough to answer this? I'm curious also.

If a ring is $1700 then I will do $1700 for both, face to face in College Station. Offer contingent on pics and general condition.

My thoughts exactly. But I thought I was just being a cynical suspicious jerk.

OP's silence on the thread only furthers my suspicion of this original intent.

Very telling offered to post pics by providing an email to try and help out and haven't yet received anything.

I think we need the back story on why choosing the handle Mr. Roon.

When I buy online, I ask for a photograph of what I am buying, with a hand written note that has today's date and the user name written on it to prove it's a person, and the product actually exists. If I am buying online, from a forum, for instance, and it''s not an Ag here with a posting history of many hundreds, if not thousands, then I will request a DL number or DL photograph prior to sending payment. Or I will use Guntab. If user does not want to put some skin in the game by proving to me that they exist, or they have a DL, or can somehow otherwise be vouched for, then I'm out.

I was working on a Winchester deal on Texas Guntrader, and the poster changed the price from 900 to 1200 as soon as we started getting serious.....that's a hard pass for me, buddy.
