About Buying/Selling misc. goods from MR community...

[inline6]

Is it me or is anyone else experiencing this feeling of illegal activity whenever you meet up with someone either to exchange corals or equipment?
Most of the MR transactions I've experienced takes place in either very conspicuous places or desolate places, sometimes I go and check out what the person has in the trunk of his car, shady or what?

Just a very odd feeling.......

Anyone else have this feeling?

LOL....yep I have had this feeling with almost every transaction I've had with members on this website... especially in Grand Central with the quick hand exchanges. The other day, I was carrying around a jar of pickled lime juice, filled with corals ofcourse, on the subway (I didn't have a bag or anything to put it in) and I swear everyone on the train thought it was a pipe bomb. But yeah inline6, I totally know what you mean dude.

you guys need to ask Spykes about carrying a bag of salt on the subway.

Also, there was a guy with a skimmer who got detained by the cops until one cop walks up and goes "it's just a skimmer, let him go"

Me, personally I like dark and seedy. Look where I live.

[Chiefmcfuz]

Not to mention getting your gun taken away from you and getting shot with it because you have no clue what's comming but the other guy does. So during the trade do you pull it like the old west? Hey how about the holiday parties? You guys gonna carry your guns then too. Hell it only makes sense right? Thanks for the job security!!! And the future overtime!!!!!!
