I found this link on WarPig about how paintballers are getting scammed and I figured since the auction just went online you might want to read this article.

"Buying and selling used paintball gear on the Internet can be a great way to get some deals, but listing items for sale, in classified ads like those on WARPIG, and even well known online auction sites like E-Bay can make a paintballer a target for criminals."

Link doesn't work for me.

Try it now.

I have heard about this from some people i know that were selling paintball guns and they would get an email that had much of that described in it! They came to realize it was a scam and didnt fall for it.. but it does suck, and i dont understand why people would be so cruel to do stuff like that.. :(

I have seen several auctions where people are bidding for a PICTURE of an item. It states that in very small print towards the end of the auction, removing all legalities from the seller. Very sneaky way to make a buck, but unfortunately I think it's legal as long as it has the disclaimer.

in my opinion i think the real criminals will scam anyone on anything. paintball auctions are no qestion a great target. i had a guy try to do me over but i caught on thank god.

Ya criminals will use any method to get your money.
