It is rare for me to have completed a transaction with the same person, one time being the seller, and the other time being a buyer. It is even more rare that I have a perfect, model transaction each time, with the seller/buyer being the epitome of integrity, trust and a model for the ideal transaction.
Mike sets the gold standard for everything a buyer and seller should be. His picture should be plastered all over GP with the caption "Be Like This Guy".
I had an opportunity to buy some items from Mike very recently. Previously my interaction with Mike was as a seller, and you can read my glowing review of Mike further down in his profile - it was fabulous!
As the buyer this time, I contacted Mike as he had some items for which I was eagerly looking, due to some recently found compatibility issues with some of my equipment. Mike had what I was looking for, but moreover, he had other items available at ridiculously attractive prices, for which I was severely interested. But of course, being an old guy, I didn't respond fast enough and his other items were understandably snagged up quickly. The items for which I had original interest, however, were still available, and Mike was able to put forth a package deal at a great price proposition for me, which I readily and happily accepted.
Having the advantage of dealing with him before, and knowing what high character person this was, I had no doubt that this transaction would be smooth. Mike showed up early, and when he went to show me the items, I didn't even need to see it and waved off his offer to itemize what I bought. No need, I said. I know Mike and fully trust him. The items were of course, as described, and he even gave me some bonus items.
But buying stuff from him aside, my favourite part was the 1 hour and 20 minute conversation we had in the middle of a parking lot, in the high heat and high humidity. There is literally no one else, I would stand in that environment for, standing frying like bacon, while enjoying a wonderful conversation that ran the gamut for a number of topics. I swear, this guy is my long lost brother, and to a degree, he really is, in terms of a brother in arms within our community. I wish I didn't have to get back to work, since I could have talked hours more with him.
There are not further superlatives that I can say to really indicate how great of a buyer and seller Mike is. If he has something for sale, just buy it. You know you are getting a good deal from a trustworthy person. I hope to transact with him again. The pleasure was truly all mine. Thank you sir!
A seamless transaction from start to finish: excellent communication, a fair deal and a quick meet-up. I cannot recommend this member highly enough. Deal with confidence!
Mike is a great professional person to have in the community. Very easy to deal with and well worth the time spent chatting. Would recommend to anyone looking to deal safely. 5 stars.
I have had one of my best overall transactional experiences tonight on GunPost EVER, with buyer Mikey_Boy. Let me tell you, this gentleman is all class, a consummate professional, and at this rate, he is going to amass a plethora of all positive 5-star feedbacks in no time flat. If there was a way I could clone him as the model gold standard for all buyers, I would. Really, he is the ideal buyer, as far as I am concerned.
This gentleman contacted me earlier this evening expressing an interest on an item. After we negotiated and confirmed the details, he provided me the relevant information in order fulfill the legal requirements the transaction and then was on his way to meet me...all this was probably within the span of only one hour. He was punctual and arrived before I did, was exceptionally communicative throughout the entire process, and exuded integrity, honesty, and a friendly spirit. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting him and chatting up a storm, and totally forgot my daughter was waiting in the car the whole time (oops). It was as if I had known this fellow all my life. What a pleasant, fantastic young man he is, and one who has a great interest and passion in all things firearms related.
We were able to converse about various shooting locations and compare notes about some common firearms that we both own and compare and contrast features. I really enjoyed the chat and highly valued the experience in dealing with Mikey_Boy. I would not hesitate to recommend him as a buyer at all, and it is my pleasure to provide this review for him and I hope it comprehensively captures what a delight it was to transact with him. Thanks again, brother, and enjoy your item! God bless!
