Ebay purchases of 1911 parts
Hi all! I haven't posted in a while on this forum but it seems I had a PM conversation awhile back with someone who was warning me about a certain Ebay seller. If anyone rembers this please PM me - Thanks.

Re: Ebay purchases of 1911 parts
Hey Mr. Ed;
I'm over in Prineville so your location kind of caught my eye. I bought some parts from a guy in Florida for a Llama 1911 IX-C and got the advertized goods as promised. I can't tell you his name because I see he has withdrawn from e-bay and his email address isn't good any more. I just remember his first name was Bobby, Sorry I couldn't help you more. |

Re: Ebay purchases of 1911 parts
there is a guy with a name like reddogalaskan or something similar.....his exploits are posted on many forums. he is a master at implying something and letting you think you are getting something which it is not. he usually makes statements like "mags for wwII colt" or GI stub safety and slide stop for wwII vintage colt"...he sells alot of these.....buys them from sarco for 9 or 12 dollars and people bid upwards of $40 plus.he is admittedly very good at working just inside the limit....be very careful.

I bought some 7 round 1911 mags from this guy and they were as described and I thought I got a pretty good deal (I think $35 with shipping for 5 of them). They were offered as a second chance purchase and I took it. I am always leery and watchful of all my dealings on the bay and will continue to do so. I also don't buy things I don't know much about. Always remember caveat emptor. |
