    free pack pack gun broker

    got an email from gun broker saying, I had a free backpack well after I get to it about 15 dollars to ship. maybe I am passing up a great deal but just don't trust it.

    I got the same email, deleted it. I figured it was probably a $10 backpack, or some other scam.

    In my mind $15.00 isn't free . $0.00 now that's free !

    I got it too, figured it was a scam or spam so deleted w/out opening it. Nothing is free.

    I get quite a few emails about free stuff (flashlights, tac gear, etc.). When I look at them, it is always after you pay more shipping than the item is worth. I just delete them.

    Gun broker sells their email list to anyone. They are spam kings. The nra isn’t much better.

    I got it too. I just put Gun Broker on my Junk list.

    Spam and junk backpack... I would delete

    have several new ones I would ship you for $15.00 .. but I would be taking huge advantage of you

    they are sold as backpacks (not by me as I was sent these as samples) more like a 2 strap thin cloth bag
    I just give them to customers

    Theres a fine line between genius and crazy .. I'm that line
    and depending on the day I might just step over that line !!!

    Several years ago, I recieved a free “gear bag” for subscribing to a fishing magazine. They make them look much larger than they are with photography. It was the cheapest piece of **** I have seen. The zipper broke on the second opening. Cheap junk, and if you did get one, you would be bombarded with emails from them and whoever else they decide to sell your info to.

    I got the same fantastic offer - delete deleted.

    Actually, I was thinking of jumping on the band wagon and buying one of these - they sound like such a high quality backpack that I could keep one next to my computer and put all of the other spam / freebie e-mails I get. Oh wait a minute . . . spam e-mail when stored in a "free" backpack that costs money to get will soon spoil and start rotting and smelling . .

    Pretty sure I did the same thing. I never open an email from GunBroker unless I’m currently buying something off the site.
