I trade this member a backpack for 10 3006 API rounds that he was sell for $6.00 each. It came in nicely package. But only 2 of the 10 exploded. When asked if he will make good on the ammo. He told me that it wasn't going to happen. I'm man of my word and stand behind anything that I sell over trade. If he would have said, Hey I'm sorry its old ammo thing happen or I will work with you on this. But to me RUDE and think that you can deal with people like that is just plain wrong. I have never given a Negative feedback to a member in all the forum that I'm on.

Well He left positive feedback on July 7th and approx 2 weeks later he left Negative and he does not tell the "WHOLE" story
prior to the deal via PM's, he was complaining about the cost and that he can get them for $2 each. I asked him where and he sent me a link to "pulled bullets" only and i informed him "Yes those are just the tips. Mine are a complete factory round and sold for more of a collectible item however they shoot perfectly I have not been able to find complete rounds for under $8 in quite some time. Im not trying to gouge people but what I have is not the same as that listing thank you for the clarification"
I thought that was the end of the conversation and then he asked if I wanted to trade. I said there not much I need what do you have in mind? He offered to trade a New backpack for 10 rounds. I agreed but said "he" would have to send me a label and I will place HIS label on a box and mail it as I did not want to mail Live AMMO. He then called me on the phone and asked me to "pull" the bullets and I can throw away the cases. He just wanted to load them in .308 I reluctantly abided by his request to pull the bullets and I sent them to him. When they arrived on June 27th, he loaded them and SAID several did not Explode, he further tells me I pulled them wrong and that could have caused them not to ignite. Here is my response "as far as the bullet pulling, I'm really sorry for this. I was reluctant in the first place and thought I was taking the proper precaution in pulling them. I packed the inside with spongy foam(see Picture) in order to minimize the impact of the bullet from hitting the inside of the puller. Hopefully in the future I can make it up to you in another way?
He then ask me to send him 5 more rounds and here is my response"I Appreciate you honoring the deal and I am sorry that it did not work out as either of us anticipated. there’s no way I can add another $30 worth of cost to put a smile on your face. especially shipping the live rounds which I offered to do in the first place. All I asked is for you to send me a label. I will gladly leave you positive feedback as I hope you will do the same for me?then he says"I know how to get a label? Have you ever drill a brass case and drain the powder? Steve, I don't want you think that feedback was a way of me getting free bullets. Its not you been great thru the whole. I just got the short end of the stick. I then tell him "im not interested in blowing myself up. lol HIM"no your not going to blow yourself up. LOL will you send me than pull bullets without bang on them so hard? Really you want me to remove them the same way but not so hard??? this was my response "I’m not going to pull any more bullets or drill Them. I had already considered this a done deal. Even though it didn’t work out as well for you but none of us could have a anticipated that. If you want to work out another trade for live rounds and you provide a postal label we can do the same deal. Remember this is Military Ammo that is quite old I certainly cannot warrantee these rounds at all.
I did offer to make good on the NEXT trade.
I did say Im sorry it did not work out as we expected
He knew the ammo was old as the listing specifically indicates they are from 1952 thru 1972
I've been a PAID supporter since day one and he is not!
