Because of all the stupid laws now. I know that 25 or so years ago, if someone like that was screwing and robbing people, he would have had his stinking, low-life face beaten to a pulp. He now has "protection", in the form of all the ignorant laws that have been passed. You can't even sock someone that really deserves it anymore without fear of being arrested, charged, fined, possible jail time, and paying thousands of dollars to an attorney. I liked it a LOT more back then.

You can accomplish the same thing as you did back in the day,, you just have to be smart about it,, no witness's no cameras etc.
you just have to think a little more


He's using the system, I use the system as well, I do A TON of business on Flea bay and I can tell you that about 20 percent of my stuff goes back because the seller misrepresented the item. most recently is a NOS Solenoid still in the Delco Tin. it rattles around like there are 10 pieces in there,,,no way am I paying top dollar for junk like that

Good luck with that! Delco D969 solenoids have damned near 10 pieces in the box and one set of instructions that does next to nothing to cushion the loose parts. I know, cause I have sold at least 50 of them just like that. If I sell one that has been opened of course I stuff the box with foam sheets, but most all of mine were sold unopened.
