Title: Used Bow Deal.....gone....great!
Post by: Tim on December 11, 2009, 11:32:00 AM
I keep reading these threads about folks buying stuff from the classifieds and the deal going bad.  I'm here to tell you about my recent bow deal that went fantastic!  

I just received a used bow from a guy many of you know, his name is Scott aka Slayer1.  The bow was not only in excellent condition but he threw in a 3 piece sock and a stringer.  To ship it he wrapped the bow in bubble wrap and slipped it inside a section of PVC, no way could the mail service damage this one.

When buying and selling it's the little things that make it a sweet deal.  An extra string, a bow sock, a stringer, etc.  Remember that the next time you cut a deal!   :thumbsup:  

Thanks Scott...your first class all the way!

It's been all good here. I found that if I do what's right, putting the other person 1st then it usually works out. If it ever doesn't I pray it's not on me because I don't want to have to answer to my God about my behavior, actions, or attitude.
God bless,Mudd

PS: Tim I think you've done a really good thing and we all should take a lesson from it. Then we don't have to assume everything went fine when we read about others doing deals. It just feels like the right thing to do and it sure can't hurt someone elses feelings to tell them how much you appreciate them and their efforts, integrity and honesty.

Nothing but great dealings for me. Dyebow, Matt Quick, Bowhunter4life, Hogdancer, MountainTool21. All have been terrific fellows to deal with.
We are members of a brotherhood of good people with high ethical standards.

Yeah Allen....you know how he is, but that ain't all bad.

He's like a rubberband....he goes both ways.

I'm still thinking crossbow myself.

I just bought a Robertson from Shick off the classified section, smooth, sweet deal.  I too got a bow sock with the deal.  Thanks Shick for the freebie!

Once again the "Lefties" take over the thread!  Where are the moderators when you need them.   :knothead:  

I'm trying to see how many bows I can count coup with this season and yes Allen I did blow the dust off that lefty Shrew    :bigsmyl:  

I'll keep you boys updated....still 6 weeks left in the season and a few doe tags in my pocket!    :jumper:      :jumper:      :jumper:      :jumper:

Only had one bad deal on a "new trailcam" only part of it was sent and the solar charger was broke.

ALL my bow buys and sales went great. Very good people to deal with.

I, too, have had many great transactions here.  I have had several sellers send the merchandise out before receiving payment, and I really appreciated the trust and respect.  I like to do that as well, now, when I sell something.  I recently sold a like new Dalaa and sent it out the day we agreed on the price.  I received the money order the same day he received the bow.  We were both happy with the sale and more pleased with the trust we had for each other.

Tim,

What are you up to now on your bow racks??  Better be careful or you'll end up needing a bow intervention like some of us crazy lefties!   :help:

Hey Barry,

I've always been lean on bows.  I've got my Billy Shipp Shrew LH, and a RT ACS.  That be it brother!

Timmy's got his Schafer and my wife a Fedora 560 that looks like a piece of fine furniture!

An you were ready to commit me the bow crazy farm   :biglaugh:
