You should just give your wife a hundred bucks, and just say thank you...Give no explanation as to why...

Never pay for ANYTHING from anyone you don't know any way other than Paypal Goods and Services. When someone won't accept paypal 90% of the time it's a scam. If they try and talk you into friends and family, instead of goods and services, tell them NO.... tell them you'll pay the small fee that's the difference if it's that big of a deal.

Agree I pay the fees if not it’s theft plain and simple I don’t buy from folks that think that’s OK to use a service and skirt paying for it like they should. If they will cheat PP they don’t mind cheating then.

I was looking online yesterday and was surprised to see there are at least a half dozen professional looking sites that are SCAMS selling reloading supplies. The first one, as fancy as the site looked, was obvious... no one's selling 1000 primers for $40. But some of the other ones with more normal prices... geez I don't think I'd be ordering from any company I've not personally heard of these days.

I got a email the other day telling me my bank account was used at Best Buy and did I approve it yes or no ($600) No bank logo on the email at all no activity on my account I just locked the card for the rest of the day and opened it later.
They were phishing for info is all I never did reply.

My guess some guys won’t go to the doctor if they were spitting up blood because of the visit costs but would buy a new gun the next day. LOL Yes that also describes me.

Yep, gotta be careful with the reloading supplies and ammo. Huge red flag is when they have a "minimum order" of $200. They are greedy. If its too good to be true it probably is!
Gotta live up to the nickname...

I called about a trap found on Craigslist not for sure yet if it's a scam.
No matter where you go there you are.

Why you boys “asking” your wives for money? Not everybody puts themselves ahead of family.
I got myself a seniors' GPS. Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination, it tells me why I wanted to go there.
