This to me is the lowest. I asked this guy a question on his model 12 gun case. He replied with BS, but I guess hes got the lord on his side. Check out his auction on fleabay.

    I guess the Lord is not watching him too closely. He's got 16 negative feedbacks[:0]

    I always felt when the seller ends with "god bless" it some how made me get a false sense of security. Like they're trying a little too hard to seem honest. Since I don't believe in their "god" I just look at their items and go from there. After all their god forgives if you ask for it and no matter what you've done your slate is clean[:(].

    I actually involked the name of God in an auction....I said if God was a hunter he would use a browning A-5...I was selling a perfect 20 light with 2 barrels in a hartman case....God?... why did you let me sell that gun?????
    I think this fellow is using the auction to promote God.. ok, I guess
    but it is a bit kooky

    I looked at the rest of the stuff he has. He is a little tall on prices.

    I truly don't mind if someone wants to mention God, Mohammed, Buddha or whomever in an auction. But it's price and reasonable shipping that will get me to bid.

    Why do you think the ministers/preachers ask you to close your eyes while you pray? It's so they can grab money out of the collection plates. [}:)]

    I have finally figured you out...you just want something for nothing....thats why you hire illegals to build your house and gripe (wrote gripe)about every price that comes along....if you can't afford it, go without but....errrggg (no space in my head youd gripe about the rent)[xx(]

    I dont think God would help him, seems like he is trying to rip you off; he isn't so it will sell.

    Get thee out of my sight Satan, for thou are not judging by God's standards but by thy own.

    I only used God one time in an auction, but for good reason. I was selling a Heym SR20 that had the image of the Blessed Virgin in the graining of the cheekpiece on the stock. Frankly, it was a distraction for me, but I figured someone would pay a pretty sum to have it as a conversation starter at the range or as a companion like Wilson the volleyball when the hunt is long and the game are uncooperative.

    Yeah, but in the end who wants to talk to a stock? I sent it back and got a blow-up instead.

    Usually he doesn't take care in shipping what he sells.
