Unrelated but a guy over in VA wanted to buy a muzzleloader rifle I had in the local trading paper. He wanted me to ship it to him, but him pay half, me ship, then he pay me the other half.

I calmly explained to him, "that isn't how it works." He then wanted to meet me someplace in VA, which would have been OK, if he paid my gas money, but he was just too weird on the phone. He wanted to do it in a parking lot, instead of a gun store.....so I backed away.
