RE: Ripped Off By A Fellow Hobbyist.
I have been bitten twice here on RCU over the years. Both were new to the site with low posts and young (baised by their language/spelling and interests in cars).
Both were removed from RCU but I was still out of my "stuff".
I have stopped two sales when the person started getting flakey.
THE KEY FOR ME IS BEWARE OF NEWCOMERS WITH NO PRIOR TRANSACTIONS/POOR RATINGS, IF ANY, AND CHANGES OF PLANS/EXCUSES. BEST TO JUST STAY AWAY NO MATTER HOW GOOD THE DEAL IS.[:@]
