AirgunNation Classified is something else.

I am trying to purchase a used FX Impact, but am unable to message anyone. I understand you need to be a member for a period of time and have a certain number of posts, but how will I have anything to post about if I don't own the piece and haven't used it yet? Is there any way I can let someone know I would like to purchase their item potentially? Sorry if this is a common question, but I have never run into this on any site with classifieds or forums. There seems to be a wealth of excellent information here, but I am confused about how to use the classifieds.
First of all welcome to the forum as this is your first post. Go back and read the rules. When we get to know you, then and only then can you hangout, buy and sell with us. We kinda need to know you and what you bring to the table. Start posting about your shooting style and you will be there with the 10 meaningful post.

You have not been a Member long enough. Read the rules the top of the classifieds. Good luck
 
Yeah, I get it. I just don't understand how to get into this if you want to buy a used one if you can't contact a seller to try to buy.
You're saying that you have absolutely nothing airgun related to talk about? That just seems suspicious, you joined the forum and agreed to the rules, now want special treatment even though you just got here. If you want the gun that bad, just be a part of the group, interact and people won't be as weary of ya.

If you haven't noticed by now, you will soon realize we're like a cult. Only once you've drank the blood of a thousand starlings will you then be allowed to purchase any if our implements of avian destruction.
 
I'm super happy with my experiences buying used on the classified s...I won't be buying anymore new pcps...
Yeah, this sums up my experience since jamming with the AN forum. 💕 💋 Sorry, those emojis might be too much?

Of course I have stuff to talk about...mainly questions since I don't own an air gun right now. I try not to be "that guy" who posts stuff without searching for some answers first, but this policy forces you to post when you could probably find all your answers and have very little to contribute since you lack knowledge and experience. Forum keyboard warriors love to condescendingly bark at people for asking questions that have already been answered, yet get mouthy to new people with genuine and sincere interest who may not have been around long enough to fully understand the culture of the group. It's fine bud, I'll participate and follow the rules I agreed to. There are obviously a lot of great people here who are kind and helpful. So, thanks for the kindness to a new member.
Airgun warriors will allow you to join and post in classifieds right away. That is where I first looked. But it was also the place that a Scammer got Me for $900. Choose carefully. I have never been ripped off here.
That's good to know. I get that feeling there's good folks here by looking around and reading posts, which I was doing before I found classifieds. I think I understand the policy better (to keep out the bots and scammers), so it's all good. I'd rather be a part of a group with good moderators then a place that's the wild west. Thanks for the patient reply.

LOL. Does the blood of all the squirrels my son and I took with my first PCP count? 🤣

Not a problem! If you have any more questions about the FX impacts, don't hesitate to reach out through posts or threads until you get access to PM.

You are right though, but some members jump at your throat straight away for asking questions, only to also come at you again for resurrecting an old thread lol.
 
I have run a very successful airgun business losing money lol. My income is in the form of happy members and room in the safe. I look at it like I leased a gun for a while and just sold it to carmax all at a loss. I love it and I don’t care. I stay honest and make fellow air gunners happy. Anyone out there doing funny business please stop, we’re a small family we don’t need the greedy uncle ripping off his nieces and nephews. There’s already enough greed we don’t need it in this family of airheads.
Ataboy, right-on brother I worked construction for over 40 yrs the last 10 of that was for myself after doing the math twice checking numbers realizing honesty truth and fairness was a freebie resulting in small profits with large satisfaction
