    Skipper...

    RE: Coastal firearms shop.

    SCAM Site..
    This are the listed forms of payment.

    CashApp
    Apple Pay
    Interac e-Transfer
    Bank to Bank Transfer
    Bitcoin Bitcoin

    Once your money has been sent it's GONE FOREVER...

    I'm surprised you posted the link as there have been many warnings about this apparent nefarious operation.

    Have you bought anything from them?

    Thanks for this Skipper. However, I'm very suspect. They don't offer any way to pay but bitcoin, cashapp, apple pay, etc. I don't buy from companies like this as most in my experience are scams. See here:

    Coastalfirearmshop.com - Non Delivery Scam

    Fake gun and ammunition scammers are posing as online retail storefronts and aiming to steal your cash and personal information with too-good-to-be-true ammo deals and offers. Scammers will ask for payment by insecure means such as Paypal (Friends and Family), Zelle, CashApp or even Bitcoin. They will refuse secure methods of payment such as cash in person or GunTab.com

    GunScams.com aims to disrupt these scammers by exposing their fake websites online so that you can learn to avoid them.

    Non Delivery Scams like Coastalfirearmshop.com follow a simple format which allows the criminal to steal money from their victims in multiple ways.
    The criminals will first create a website or online page from which they will "sell" their goods. They will often offer weapons for sale on gun forums.
    The scammer will then introduce you to the secondary "shipping" website which will have been created by the scammer. These websites can be very professional and will allow you to log in to see your item being shipped.

    The scammer can then charge you for multiple other items such as made up import permits, police fees, etc.
    If they don't have a credit card option, I'm out.

    Thanks for the info, Guys.

    Maybe a moderator can delete this before someone gets screwed.

    Thanks for the heads up...
    I'm sure you saved me from ruining cases.

    I just bought (yet to receive) a Vertex annealer which I have been in the market for for a long time.
    It's just that the new price was way more than I could afford, so I waited until a used one came up for sale.
    I no longer reload for 38-55, it's a fun old cartridge to shoot. The buddy who I shot 38-55 with passed away and I've got a bunch of fire formed and Starline brass. I'll send you a PM.

    Skipper,

    No worries... I've forwarded things before that I thought were great only to find out they
    were erroneous , Getting duped knows no boundaries.

    I bought and paid for a 30" barrel from another member on another web site.
    When it arrived it was 26 1/2 inches. As that barrel was to be used with a verier tang sight, I was looking for a sight radius of 36"

    Well when I contacted the seller about the discrepancy he got very pissy with me.
    Ultimately it got straightened out after I prepaid for the rifle and shipping both ways but it was with much consternation.

    Was it a honest mistake..? I don't think so because the seller had posted pictures of his other rifles. All of them were show pieces.
    He knew his stuff.

    Why the guy had to an a-s-s about it was beyond me.
