Just as well im based in the UK  :-D

I jusr replied "Yawn".   That always amuses me   :-D

Had he been a bit more calm on the PM he sent me, I might have been  less reactionary myself.

so, does something "curious"

then gets questioned about it

and then in response to a reasonable question starts making entirely random and illogical threats?

that's VERY SUSPICIOUS BEHAVIOR

maybe he'll pm me too for just commenting about that FACT in this thread

:D

btw, isn't the tradition to sell the stuff on ebay as milspec and then "have difficulties" shipping it and just keep the money etc

"if it looks like a scam, it probably is™"

and, incidentally, I haven't said one slanderous thing in this post :)

LOL.  Slander is verbal, LIBEL is written. And nothing you wrote approached Libel.  Libel is saying something like "I know for a fact this person stole XXX" when it can't be proven to be true (criminal history).  Saying you think someone is probably a scammer, and that in your opinion they are just a plain jerk and you think they eat egg water on weekends isn't libel.  That's called a negative opinion.:D

Well, here in the USA anyway.

The whole thing just sounded to suspicious.


I did a search for "amiga for sale" just recently on google, and found that he had also posted to the Washington, DC craigslist and I wasn't even looking for posts by him. It was flagged for removal before I got there. Looks like some people independent of AO have also found his posts to be suspicious. (Assuming it hadn't been flagged by AO people in Washington, DC, that is. :-))

Well, they don't seem suspicious to me... but I did expect the reply to email address to be @aol.com.

Members here are brutal!

Sharp, sometimes brilliant, usually extremely helpful, often very witty, or outright hilarious, AND overall brutal toward the unsuspecting that show any questionable behavior.  I love it!  :lol:

I had better watch my step or I may get thrown under the bus next. :-o
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)

You had better get rid of it quick before everyone finds out!

(I'm just teasing)

Since you can't actually use their horribly slow and unstable advertising loaded browser on your Amigas you are exempt!
