    Quoted from rtotans:

    He said he would give me 2 days to pay and if anything was wrong, I could send back right away with the driver right then

    Drivers don't wait around while you unwrap, set up, and plug in a game.

    They make you sign the BOL before you unwrap, then they bolt.

    Quoted from rtotans:

    , and if I found out afterwards, the game was broken he would just deduct the money from what I owed. So basically I wouldn't have to pay for 2 days afterwards. who would want to do that?

    No one.

    ........and that is why it would never happen.

    Quoted from rtotans:

    I just can't afford some of these higher more expensive games, and with him, it was doable.

    Look at it this way, so you can put your mind at ease:

    Even if this guy was offering games at normal market prices, they would be sold instantly, LOCALLY.

    Any pin on CL that is even close to a normal price gets 100s of calls in the first hour.

    A game that is anything like a deal is sold on the first phone call, literally within a minute of being posted.

    "Dude, there is a guy selling a 1967 Fastback Mustang for $10,000 down in TX. I'm sending him 1/2 and he's shipping it up to me!" says a guy at work.

    "Uh, why wouldn't someone in TX just go and buy it?" says me.

    "I dunno, it's been listed all week. He said he got a bunch of calls!" says guy.

    "So with the simplicity of someone local just coming and giving him cash in hand and driving it away, he has chosen to sell it to you, shipping it 1000 miles away? Does that make any sense to you?????" says me.

    "Dude, you sure know how to knock the wind out of somebody's sails...." says guy.

    "You owe me dinner" I say.
