    BS people not responding to PMs, giving dibs on first posts, or even giving priority when due... i'm not saying the badge gives first dibs, but to not respond, contribute, or play fair is totes BS. gonna think twice on any deals with members that don't contribute from now on. i'm not looking for benefits, or cheap deals, but darn sure expect fair play.

    Hard to tell from OP if he has issues with:
    A. GCGF Supporters alleged priviledge.
    B. Non Supporters freeloading.
    C. Upset because he didn't get a deal he wanted due to:
    1. No respones/communication from seller.
    2. Item sold to other Member who didn't respond on Sale Thread. Probably had contact by PM or phone PRIOR to Ops response.
    3. Seller just ignored OPs offer. Could be Seller ignored Low ball offer or something else in his post was a turn off, Doesn't like Members political posts, posted opinions or Member Posts Blocked.

    Take the Mods offer and PM him.

    its about being fair. Every other forum ive been a member of required a post for msgs, texts, or a "ill take it" in an add. Regardless of method of communication, its considered polite to respond. It was for an item that i wanted and pm'd for with no response. Later noticed the "text only" so my bad. Still haven't gotten a response from my pm, which i find rude. To many "members" don't know the rules and may not understand the etiquette of online forums... jmho.

    "I'll take it" is not set in stone. Neither is a pm. Shit happens. It sucks she you think you've "won" and get beat.

    Not about "winning". It was a good deal and i wanted a shot, that is all.

    I have an issue with Txt only to get phone number , my experience that lead to spam. After Appoint agreed on price and meeting place then proceed with phone number exchange . I have more faith in GCGF members than said Armslist but lately I got quite few new members “ I got a friend with your interest Txt him and displayed the phone number. My response usually: what ever your friend interested communicate with this forum Or PM .

    I was a supporter but then got a time out that I felt was not fair so I let the supporter thing lapse...No crying and whining just using my pocketbook do my talking.

    Lots of the "newbies" have not read the rules or do not care, lack of communication, show interest and then nothing, or sell out from under an agreement or no show. That is why I prefer to do business with established known members, they communicate properly out of respect for each other.
    :cool:

    What does one get for being “a supporter “ ???? Profit sharing? Is there a secret handshake? Do you meet for mimosa brunches?

    you get a special 50% off on all steel cased foreign ammo.....65% if it is Chinese..
