You mean like me? Yes I recently got scammed for $270....my excuse was I was in a hurry, I just wanted the item, I was hoping it was legit. Now I'm back on red alert.

That's my initial thought, I'd be very suspicious.

Sure is nice getting that first one!

In the past I've used leather repair shops for this type of thing, last place I went was Rago Brothers in Morristown, they do good work.

I've been thinking of getting back into it....I did it a lot as a kid. I would have to buy an air rifle....I was researching them last year, but never bought one....I won't buy something unless I'm 100% convinced I'll use it and I wasn't positive I would make the effort to get out.

He sent me a message this morning about a treestand I was looking for, effing scumbag. Here's a screenshot.

Thanks, for the offer, but I bought a 2nd one shortly after I posted this.

The safety line is there in front of me, but doesn't bother me. I sit facing the tree 90% of the time, I never use the rifle rest....I rest the gun against the tree or sometimes crouch down and rest it on the seat section.

Congrats, I'm jealous.

When it absolutely, positively has to make it there with no screwups, I use fedex. When it needs to get there, but not urgent I use UPS. When I don't give much of a crap, I use USPS. I currently have a package I mailed myself from CO in early Nov using usps, it's mia and I can't find the tracking number. Someone sent a check to me and my daughter in mid Nov, it's mia. So, yeah, I've had it with the usps....they messed up my recent move big time, I was ready to pull my hair out, because they didn't give a durn.

Thanks for all the replies.....It's a closed cabin boat on public waters. Wish there was a consensus.

It's a closed cabin. Not that it matters in this case, but I've never seen anyone on it, I don't know if it's abandoned or they're just below deck.

I've been thinking of hunting this spot for a few years, it's a pain to get to it, so far I haven't done it. Sometimes there is a boat anchored about 15 yards from the bank and I would climb a tree about 20 feet from the bank and I would be shooting away from the direction of the boat. So I would be roughly 25 yards from the boat when I shoot. I would move further away from the boat, but it's the only open spot available, the area around it is choked with briars and holly trees. Would I be breaking or bending any laws? Just want to make sure I'm not missing anything.

Be very suspicious when you post a WTB! Scammers will tell you they have it or a friend has it.

Agreed, I'm thinking the person didn't see your stand or bait somehow.
