i met a fellow on a messege board and he says he makes frequent trips to Mexico. he said he could pick me up some gear. although i am sketchy about this, i think i am going to follow through with it. what would you do????

[broncojosh]

I'd say stick around a while. Get to know people.

[babysqeeze]

Bronco, you think i should, send him half the money and then send the rest later when i get everything? you know what i mean

[R.I.E.N.G.]

Ive been ripped many a time, its from being too anxious, too careless, you can NEVER be too skeptical.

[billr]

unless your only buying like 200 worth of gear i wouldn't dare give my money to some guy with no back up. Heck i could tell you that i was going to mexico and say give me some money and i will pick you up some shit, and i would by $$ richer

Consider how much money you would be able to part with should it turn out to be a scam. Because once it's gone it's gone, unless you want to file a police report??? Nah didn't think so... check your PM bro.

[EXCESS]

I wouldn't do it.

[gymnut4u]

If you just met him bro dont trust it !!!!!!

[popeyethasailah]

a little common sense would do you good here. number one you shouldnt trust anybody anyway. you are talking about illegal shit that violates plenty of regulations... to keep it simple, stick around, talk to the moderators, use references but NEVER trust anyone.

Ahh, I would not be so trusting.

If you send me 10% now, I will send you nothing later--that's a lot better deal than you will likely get from your 'new buddy.' (And I am honest about it too!)

My motto: beware of friendly strangers!

[Dr.Evil]

depends on how well you know him.
