Just a heads up about this nut job.
First, he registers and immediately tries to sell 10 Benchmade Infidels as a gold member. Obviously this is against the rules.
He also posted this picture
Obviously, someone closing their business isn't selling as an individual, but needs a dealer membership. @Boru13 warned him about this shortly after the post was made, then told outright he needed a dealer membership. He was also called out for requiring PP F&F instead of the normal transactions that have buyer protection.
Anthony ignored the warning, so the thread was moved to the back end. He then created two new threads, which were also closed, and then he was banned.
On Monday he called me with a case of the ass, whining that he didn't really have 10 infidels for sale, and that we were being too harsh on him, and it's all someone else's fault, insulting me and the mods, etc. I told him that violating TOS results in a ban, and wasn't interested in his excuses. He, naturally, opens a paypal dispute, I respond, and figure it's over.
So what does he do? If you guessed "register another profile, pay for another gold membership, then get banned immediately and opens another paypal dispute" you win a prize. Witness the douchebaggery: https://www.bladeforums.com/threads/nothing-here.1710541
Thus, we're going to put this out there.
Anthony M Wade, who claims to be "Retired US Army Medic 1-14 Cav. Fort Lewis Wa." and a "male nurse" with "3 tours Iraq" is untrustworthy, tried to scam the community, and when called out on his behavior, lied to Paypal as well. He tried to scam us out of the proper level of membership, paypal out of seller fees, and who knows who else.
Be warned when doing business with him. The 2nd time he registered he did so using a vgcc.edu email address, so if someone happens to google Anthony Wade at VGCC then maybe this thread will turn up. I'm not going to post his phone number tho.
In short, don't come back Anthony. You aren't welcome here.

Guess he’s not out to fleece Reddit users.
