I Fubared the top panel on my garage door (don't ask!) and need a replacement panel. Anyone on the board in the business before I go to the yellow pages?

What? Where? I live in Toms River and have not heard anything?

Crap, I live in Toms River! We don't drink the water here.

I am a little confused at why everyone is loading their guns? What do you think you will have to shoot at? Do you all live in such bad neighborhoods that you think someone is going to break into your homes? This is not the first hurricane to hit New Jersey (66 by my count since we moved here in '58)? I have lived here practically all my life and there have been some real strong ones, albeit most have not been too serious. When I was a kid we rode one out on second Avenue in Manasquan (Donna, 1960) and I have been on my boat for Bob ('91)and Hugo ('89). After Bob my wife said we would never do that again!

I hope you have a place to go this weekend, I hear they are evacuating many shore areas already. I am 7 miles inland (and 40' above sea level) so I am staying put. I'll get some fresh gas for the generator tomorrow "just in case". We do have underground utilities but if there is a widespread power outage, it will be nice to have lights on.

Welcome to the forum from Toms River.

Was having lunch at Surf Taco in Brick when the building started shaking.

I got stopped once and had a 10 year old PBA card that a grateful student gave me when he became a police officer. The officer looked at it and said "If you haven't done anything to have this taken away in 10 years, you can't be that bad a driver! Have a nice night...and slow down a bit".

Welcome to the forum from Toms River.

Working late (again), damn work getting in the way of shooting!

Save the drive, sell it here?

Welcome to the from from Toms River.

The site belongs to Maxim, I thought there was some forms that you could print off and leave at gun shops? Perhaps a search might yield something?

That's Funny! Sad, but funny! Welcome to the forum from the Jersey Shore.

Didn't you get one of those "Mosin Tools"? It has a gauge to set the firing pin to the correct depth.

So you will commit to sell to a buyer that says he will be there in a week, but then you will sell it out from under him if someone shows up before then with money in hand?

These huge forums have a large number of administrators and moderators that are on top of things. I know on the forum my son is a global moderator on, there are like 10 global moderators, 80 subject moderators and a full staff of Admins. this is a hobby for Maks and i am betting the software he uses may not even be able to do all the things that are being suggesting? We are supposed to be a family here, we should be able to behave ourselves?

I feel your pain. Fortunately, I live in Central jersey so I can go to Tony at TJ sporting Arms who has completed four flawless transactions for me so far (He will order practically whatever you like) and Shore Shot in Lakewood where I have bought 5 or 6 firearms. Once they got to know me, I could just call them, tell them what I want, they give me a price and will order for me if I give them the nod! I pay when I pick it up and they have never disappointed me.

I don't think it is a matter of moderating time stamps, we have all jumped in to buy something here and missed out and just figured we'll win it next time. I have been guilty of just sending a PM instead of posting IWTI and lost a couple of gems, but I survived. Face it, there is nothing for sale here that is that life changing. The OP was talking about what he thought was a done deal that went south. If he had shot a PM top Maks or Tim they could have gotten to the root of the problem and tried to resolve it. Heck, maybe he should have PM'd the seller? Or not wait two days to have a conversation with him in the first place? Instead, we have another rambling post with everybody's (valuable) opinion and we are all wasting our times diciphering every word and comma. (Not ME though, I am retired and have nothing better to do! )

I have to agree, if you have an issue with a seller (or any member for that matter) it is best to PM Maks or Tim. I have never had an issue that they could not resolve or give a reasonable answer to. That's why you have Admins! Moderators are good for keeping posts on track and civil, Admins should be the ones to settle disputes and control the ban stick! IMHO

Perhaps seller was afraid that after 48 hours of "no contact", you had buyers remorse and he jumped at a firm buyer? It does stink but happens sometimes.
