Rifle was listed Sunday, June 1st, as soon as I request ID verification it was removed from the site. I've left several voice mails and have yet to receive a response.
Maybe he sold it just wish he would let me know.

Time to move on.

OK

I was going to offer to look at it for you if it was not too far from me...

That was why I looked to see where the seller was located...

Good luck!

You really have zero business with a copy of his driver's license. If you want verification or to get a feeling, get a phone number. I'd stopped conversation too if someone just hit me with that instead of wanting a phone number. God Bless.

If he is not willing to talk with you on phone , forget it and move on .

I'd guess if the ad was removed from the site, it may have been a scam.

Paypal has restrictions against using their service to buy guns, so this wasn't ever legit.

Sorry, man. Bummer.

PS - Be patient, someone around here is bound to put up what you want for sale in the classifieds section of MO. You see a lot of mistreated junk for sale around the interweb, but not here. I bought more than a couple of Marlins from the members here - all of them were great people and great rifles.

I think you just spooked a fraud when you requested the DL. I wouldn't send you mine either, but it would not scare me into removing the item from the auction site. I have made only three on line purchases . Two on Gunbroker and one on another forum's for sale list. All went smoothly. I spoke with two of the sellers on the phone and exchanged e-mails with the other. On one somewhat expensive transaction, the seller e-mailed me to see if I was happy before he cashed my certified check. BTW, the other two took my personal check. Depending on your bank, they now clear rather rapidly.
