F2F, bring a friend, meet in a VERY public place, the local PD parking lot if you really question the seller, be prepared to explain to police, have your CHL ready, and carry! Rules I live by when buying ANYTHING from a forum, CL, etc.

I have done several face to face transactions with tgt. Just have to meet at a public place. And have phone conversations you have to feel the people out before you meet with them.

I made a trade off of there yesterday. Met face to face and was super smooth and easy. There's a lot of crooks on there so you have to be careful. Of course, that goes for anything you're buying from an individual off the internet. If it smells fishy then it probably is.

I forgot to point out that I have been buying and selling in TGT since it almost went online. I have met a lot of great people and have always had a good experience. That imcludes a lot of individuals in law enforcement . It's kind of funny, a lot of times my postings sell over there a lot faster than they do here.
Of course there has been times where I have had a few "tire kickers" but I have had that here too.
