So I bought a rifle Sako Finnbear from Tim his add stated rifle in very good condition minus cracked stocked ……. BULLSHIT!!!! pics were taken at curtain angles to void problem areas … or fudged the bluing is 50% gone … missing front sight crack is worse then stated ( but I knew it would be ) … wanted $$$ asap then became a total asshole ..said condition is subjective ???? sent gun in pieces …after he said no pics of inside stock.. another lie…the gun is a total loss in my opinion I will give him the gun was wrapped very well ….won’t deal with Tim again
AVOID THIS SCAM ARTISTS. LISTEN TO THE NEGATIVE REVIEWS.
I bought a cooey 64B and asked via text if the gun is CONFIRMED functional. He said yes. Upon receiving the gun, the receiver and bolt were packed full of grit and dirt. Once cleaned, the rifle wouldn't feed out of the magazine.
I reached out and said that the mag well was obviously the wrong one for the gun. The magazine and magwell was brand new and the gun was in rough shape.
His response? "I don't have that part, do you have a source?" And "sorry, no refunds"
So after lying in the ad, lying over messages, he expects you to fix the problem yourself, and offers no refund. "Just like canadian tire, cabelas".
DUDE IS A STRAIGHT JOKE AND SHOULD BE BOOTED FROM THE PLATFORM.
If he fixes his mistake, I will edit the review. Until then, DO NOT BUY
I purchased a fourth rifle from Tim this summer. Rifle was promptly shipped and extremely well packaged. Rifle was as described. I was pleased with dealing with this member. When I read all the negative reviews I feel lucky as he has always been 5 stars to me.
BE CAREFUL TO THIS PERSON, HE IS SCAMMING US OUT OF OUR MONEY Before I bought his 3 x winchester 1894 and 3 x winchester 1892, I asked him different questions to be sure that the mechanisms worked, the springs, the loading gates.... .. and the answer was YES AND WHY IT WOULDN'T WORK . BANG!!! upon receipt of the packages, all the mechanisms were jammed in rust, all the spings broken or metal with no spring.... the Winchesters are in an irrecoverable condition.... I tried to communicate with him several times without success.... I asked him for a refund or compensation because it had still cost me $1400....... I waited 1 week before writing this comment to give him a chance to get his act together. reasonable fine......... without response from him. SO I TELL YOU, DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THIS INDIVIDUAL BECAUSE I BELIEVE HIS HONESTY IS PASSABLE. I hope this will alert you to Gunpost members. :(
Tim was great to deal with. I bought a Winchester 30/30 and it was as advertised. I finally got it out to the range where it performed flawlessly. For a 52 year old gun it looked and felt like a new one right out of the box. I will be watching his adds and gladly deal with him again.
Fast friendly sale. Great price and it showed up very well protected. Extremely happy with my purchase and will be looking to buy from him again. Would 100% recommend this guy.
Met this gentleman in person. Very happy with this face to face deal. Easy communication and a very friendly chat was had. And a very good price on an very interesting item. Thank you!
I bought a rifle from him. It was exactly what he said it was and in good shape. Pricing was fair and it was packaged up really nicely. I would deal with him again.
Great dealing with Tim. Price was fair and the described condition was spot on, shipping was quick and gun was extremely well packaged. Great transaction, will definetly deal again in future.
Am a repeat customer for a reason. Tim is awesome to deal with, with this being the 2nd rifle I bought from him. Very fast transaction. Tim goes above and beyond with packaging so you get it in prestine shape. Pictures don't do the rifles justice. If they are not mint condition, Tim will let you know. Don't hesitate to deal with Tim. A straight shooter.
Most recent deal with Tim was March 2023 and involved multiple firearms and many thousands of $$$> I have bought, sold, traded multiple firearms, scopes, ammunition and all manner of shooting sports paraphernalia with Tim over many years. My dealings, I believe, have always been fair and equitable to both of us once negotiations were completed. I have been an active member of the Canadian firearms community as a hobbyist for over 50 years, in which time I have owned, purchased, sold and traded literally thousands of firearms with individual pieces worth anywhere between $75 and $50K. Throughout the years I have conducted transactions on many firearms websites including this one, as well as being a regular participant in the gunshow circuit of western Canada for face-to-face exchanges. Over time I have developed a rapport with Tim to the point he is aware of my personal interests in firearms and will make contact with me if he encounters pieces that may be of interest to me. I have 'zero' qualms about continuing this association and doing business with him!
well ..my 71 yr. old shotgun came in today and i was very impressed how a rifle can look like that for 1952. very well packaged . so that said 5 stars plus.10;04
