I too have been on the Trader for a few years but have been not been 'turned down' because of a rating. (maybe im not buying enough guns lol) It seems it has been in last 3 or 4 years people can't stand by their word and meet (on time) where they say they will. Or, back out of sale because because someone offered more. I'm not saying its young people but when I do see a number in red and look at that persons age more often than not they are. I've been lucky on here with the people I've met being genuinely nice and trustworthy people.
