slotperfect 7 #1 November 2, 2003 This seller either simply wants a knowledgeable person to write an effective description of an item they know nothing about, or is a serial killer. Check It OutArrive Safely John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
samhussey 0 #2 November 2, 2003 Why would they want a description of it? So they can sell it to someone? I'm confused... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyinggoose 0 #3 November 2, 2003 Someone may want to take a look at the description when it gets posted and bounce it off the stolen gear list. Me thinks the glass may be half empty on this one. "Never waste a heartbeat." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadDog 0 #4 November 2, 2003 The seller seems a little challenged by the English language, so maybe he or she just needs a little editorial help? Or it's hot gear. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michele 1 #5 November 2, 2003 LOL, I'm in the location area they describe, as are some other really good jumpers (which doesn't include me....). I wonder...should I? Shouldn't I?

bigbearfng 18 #8 November 2, 2003 Hmmm, if it was just an "English challenged" person...seems that they would have folk from their DZ to help them with a "translation". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
andy2 0 #9 November 2, 2003 might not be a jumper, might be his dead friends or brothers or something. Or he could of swiped it. --------------------------------------------- let my inspiration flow, in token rhyme suggesting rhythm... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iamspoild 0 #10 November 3, 2003 He's been doing business on ebay since Feb. 03, but recently (within 30 days) changed his id to SKYDIVEMILKY. He obviously knows the "rig" is worth something. Based on his recent change, I'd bet that he currently has every intention to list it. pj Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michele 1 #11 November 3, 2003 I will be happy to help SkydiveMilky out of a jam...but I can't get to his e-mail. If someone can, would you please pm me with it? Thanks!

Michele 1 #13 November 3, 2003 Hi, Age. Got the pm. Gee, it feels good to try to help someone out. Who knows, maybe I can find him a good buyer here for the stuff. Nothing like helping out a fellow jumper - and tangentially this would be it! Thanks, all. I'll let you all know what transpires!

webracer 0 #17 November 4, 2003 I saw that listing, Someone please go look at it. Get the serial numbers, it may be stolen gear. Take his money, then call the cops once you are clear.

kelel01 1 #18 November 4, 2003 I agree. This definitely sounds like stolen gear to me. Somebody check on it, but remember to use the buddy system. Kelly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Michele 1 #20 November 4, 2003 I have been in touch via e-mail with him. I will be calling him later this evening. He said he wants to drop off the rig at my house...which will not happen, of course. Home addies are quite well protected in my world. But I will need to hook up with him at a local coffee shop - and rjf98, if you want, I will take you up on that, no problems. But it's kinda a long drive for you, isn't it? I do promise I won't be alone...if need be, I'll have my 6'4" (docile but don't tell anyone that) non-jumping brother with me...and worry not, I will be looking at all aspects of the situation.

Michele 1 #23 November 4, 2003 Quotehealthy paranoia is a good thing.... Absolutely...not gonna get hurt on this one. Lots of backup, lots of being in public. NO issues...and it's not paranoia, it's protectiveness. Besides, I may be bored - but I am not stupid....

Guest #24 November 4, 2003 Wow, those are beautiful moccasins. $102 is a bargain for that much work. Please investigate, but it sound slike somebody contacted this chap to sell a rig - it doesn't seem like this fellow pinched it, imho. Maybe he's a shill. Be thorough, and investigate carefully.
