    MAYBE...... The seller is a business owner and has an extremely hectic schedule that involves last minute travel somewhat frequently. Maybe the seller has received payment in the past and then left out of town the same night and wasnt able to ship for a week. That bad experience may have soured the seller from shipping stuff any longer if at all possible. I like cash in my hand and XXX item in buyers hand at the same time.

    Also, if the FIRST thing an ad says is "FTF in NWI" perhaps that should be a giveaway as to what my intentions were for the sale.

    Screw it. I pulled all my for sale items from the classifieds. Id rather throw it out than deal with people who are too dense to follow even the most simple of request. FTF in NWI means FTF in NWI.

    Since you outed yourself, let's be honest here. I made a full offer to buy the bullets you have for sale in the want ads. I also offered to do all the work that I could do on my end that I possibly could do, except put them in a box and put it out for the mailman..

    And your response was, if nobody wants it by tomorrow I will ship them.
    It wasn't no dumb dick can't you read..

    It is interesting that the next posts live in central of southern Indiana.
    I guess they were going to drive 4-6 hours for a few boxes of bullets.

    All you had to do was answer my PM to you Sir with a simple NO.
    That's it,, NO would have ended the offer I made you..
    But you didn't say no, you told me if no one wants them by tomorrow I'll ship.
    And you gave me your phone number.. And I called and left a message.
    I'm still waiting for you to return my call. :dunno:

    Well, if I offended you Sir, I apologize. I certainly was not my intention to hurt anyone's feelings here..

    Apology accepted, though no hurt feelings here pretty much by anything posted on the net by people I don't know. I simply try to make my time here be helpful as best I can and if it's not wanted then I have better things to do with my time.

    Exactly. You made an offer exactly opposite to what I said and then feel that YOU have something to complain about when I put stipulations on it? Ya got balls my friend.

    All you had to do was answer my PM to you Sir with a simple NO.
    That's it,, NO would have ended the offer I made you..

    Been in and out of a customers mill all day. Didnt even get to return cuatomer calls until 6:30 and by that point I had seen your little tantrum thread. Tell you what, you just keep waiting for my call.

    This is just baffling to me. You truly must have some kind of impaired cognitive reasoning abilities.

    Why don't you put a poll on this thread? Make it private. Just put two options and ask "who's right?". If im in the minority, ill send you the bullets for free and logoffnof INGO forever. If im in the majority, youll drive up here and complete my FTF in NWI transaction.

    Oh my.

    Vigilant - I'm sorry I called you out for possibly illegal conduct. I was only trying to help. I mean, I'm sure you pay handsomely for your licking, so it isn't about whether you're a cheapskate or not. It was just a reminder that not all conduct between consenting adults is legal, even if it is morally ambiguous.

    Again, I meant no offense.

    I vote that a new acronym be created to compliment the already common "FTF". It will be "MTS", which is short for "Mail to Squirrel". All ads can now be labelled as FTF/MTS to avoid any confusion.

    All this over some boolits?
