Sadly the one I bought on the forum was shipped in an envelope inside of a pillow case and totally destroyed.

Frankly, I am never going to use this forum to buy anything ever again. It just takes one scammer / bad apple to ruin the whole damn bunch.

Not really an appropriate place for this so I'll be moving this in a moment; That said, TBC in no way endorses a product nor any of its users; I can only say, personally, that PayPal buyer protection has been very helpful to have. It is common practice to ask that goods be sold with "friends and family" enabled on PayPal; however, that removes your buyer protection. If you use PayPal and use it as a purchase, they are very good at conflict mediation. Actually, if anything, they tend to side on the buyer perhaps more than they should. I've only had to use it once in the years of doing business here but it did save me a few hundred $. (Actually, it was the FB group where I had the issue).

Do what you want, Admin.

This is a perfectly valid concern, and place to warn other people of sketchy sellers IMO.

One damaged item doesn't make them a sketchy seller. But I understand the concern

You posted it in someone else's classified ad which are really only for discussion about that particular ad.
