PhreeZone 20 #15 May 8, 2007 Thanks for pointing it out. I removed the ad and notified the seller he needs to relist it if its ligimiate. I've seen that same contianer picture used before but never by a premier user. In the future post something in the Suggestions or Bug's forum. Its hard for me to keep up on all the threads here in the Bonfire and I don't want to miss things like this. With 200 ads going up in the last few weeks I don't have time to review each one of them anymore and still have a life so just post to those forums if something is amiss.Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jee 0 #16 May 8, 2007 i communicated with this guy by email. he would ship the rig to my dropzone but not until he had $650. When I asked where he jumped he said he was retired from skydiving and had not jumped for awhile. Although he makes it look like he is from the US it turns out "by the way" he is in the UK travelling for a few months. This is a typical scam that I see in the hotel business on a regular basis. It is very obvious this is a SCAM. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
