Take it down to Spaceland, if you're buying it from someone in Houston that's probably where it was jumped, maintained, repacked etc. The head rigger Rory knows his stuff & will give you the straight dope on it. ~ If you choke a Smurf, what color does it turn? ~ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,534 #4 January 31, 2013 I see you're in Poland, so you running the rig down to Spaceland isn't going to be easy... On the other hand, you can ask her to run it down, and then just see if Rory Corrigan (the rigger at Spaceland) will (for a fee) send it on to you. Local riggers can act as gear forwarders that way. I haven't checked with Rory, but I'd bet that someone there would be willing to mail it. You'll have to establish how much it will cost to send -- Poland won't be cheap. Rory is apparently on Facebook; he's also RoryJ here on Dropzone.com, and you should be able to either PM him here, or contact him on Facebook.

ciechan 0 #5 January 31, 2013 Thank you for your advices. I will try to ask her to deliver it to Spaceland for inspection. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ciechan 0 #6 February 1, 2013 Unfortunately she haven't agreed to deliver it for inspection :( Maybe someone from Houston knows her and can act as an agent/trusted third party? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
piisfish 140 #7 February 1, 2013 it seams that she doesn't want to make the effort to sell the rig, specially overseas. Twardo, do you know that person ? Any way you could help ciechan out ? He seems pretty legit to me.scissors beat paper, paper beat rock, rock beat wingsuit - KarlM Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He seems pretty legit to me. Its not the buyer i would be concerned about its the seller that concerns meI would be very careful with this one. Check out "her" profile. It Reminds me of the guy that posted a couple of days ago who wanted to buy the like new rig. But The "lady" didn't want to provide the serial # of her cypress for security reasonsDifferent rig but almost a duplicate ad. Seller pays shipping etc. How can a seller set a price if their going to have to ship the rig way over there.I tried to find that thread can anybody find it and help this guy out? The concensous of opinion was it was a scamNot saying this ad is a scam but be very careful if the deal is to good to be true One Jump Wonder Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
