This Wilburn Forge Bodyguard was bought Wilburn Forge in Mar 2022 (paid $380) One private collector owner, this Bodyguard has never been used or carried. Inspected, handled and being fondled has been the extent of its "use".
No offers, no trades and no international shipping (Intl. buyers without a U.S address using a proxy forwarding address is fine with me).
I am offering this Bodyguard here on the Exchange at a reduced price*
*This Bodyguard is currently listed on another platform (Big Auction Site $275 + shipping + sales tax) There are more photos of this Bodyguard over there.
A- PayPal Goods & Services:$260 $235 SOLD elsewhere all in, no sales tax and including USPS Ground Advantage Mail shipping. Please note that I will only pay for PayPal's standard transaction fees (3.5% + .49 transaction fee, no friends & family). If you use PayPal's 4 installments payment or are an international buyer using a proxy U.S. address, the PP fees are currently 5% for these type of buyers. I will NOT pay for that extra 1.5% surcharge! You will either have to compensate me, or we have no deal.
B - Optional Zelle:$250 $225 all in, same terms as above, included shipping and no sales tax! I am only offering this option if the $10 in savings are a deal maker for you. Buyers beware as Blade Forums discourages against such payment methods.
I expect that payment is completed within one hour or less of finalizing a deal, thank you.
