Contacted him and we struck a deal via text to pistol trade in February 2018. His feed back and status looked pretty legit, so I felt confident with it.

A few days before the deal, he contacted me and said that he had to suddenly work in DC for a week. We then agreed to try and meet after his work thing when he got back.

Contacted him again around the date he said he was coming back; he stated that he wouldn't know until a few days later.

Contacted him after 2-3 days and he never replied. Completely ghosted me; ignored my texts.

He may have good some feedback on here, but when you flake on a deal, that's weak sauce... especially when you can't man up and be honest about changing your mind or whatever. I'd have a lot more respect for that instead of making up excuses, then turning tail and going dark.

Now that he's trying to strike more deals, I figured I should at least put in my caveat: Proceed with caution. That is all.
