Very kind of you to say so.
We're still the safest platform to buy and sell with. There are thousands of transactions on this forum, everything from o-rings to high end custom markers and they mostly go off smoothly, this is ONE person who tried to scam people twice and got caught.
If anyone is ever in doubt about a trade, ask a Mod to act as a middleman for the price of a few beers. Ok it'll cost more in shipping but on an item which could run to a lot of money, what's an extra 15 or 20 quid for absolute reassurance. I don't know of any single Mod who would refuse you.
