Wish I could but that is out of my price range, my budget tops out at $100. Of course I don't expect new condition, heck, my original Daisy wasn't new 75 years ago. Most of those I've seen in photos have a cracked stock, it appears to have been a design flaw so I have no problem with that, I have glue. ------------- Life is too short for delayed gratification. |

Well it looks like I got ripped off on the Daisy M-38, after I PayPaled the money I never heard back from the seller. In hind sight I should have known he was dishonest. He said his PayPal account was having "issues" and he'd like me to send to his brother's PayPal. That involved converting dollars to Euros, Big red flag there! Since then I have found the photo he sent was copied from this Pyramid Air blog, same beigh carpet same scuffing on the stock he just laid a scrap of paper saying "Evan Josh 01/03/2020" https://www.pyramydair.com/blog/2007/04/daisy-no-100-model-38/" rel="nofollow - https://www.pyramydair.com/blog/2007/04/daisy-no-100-model-38/ I've just always been inclined to trust people and I really don't want to stop now, not going to let one bad apple sour me on the human race. ------------- Life is too short for delayed gratification. |

Hi Joe , you will still be able to get your money back , you did it as a paying for services or a item purchase didn't you ? , I have done many PayPal transactions and as far as a buyer never been ripped off , as a seller ..yes a few times but not bad , just crooks who try to make claim and try and keep the guns , both only when I sld through eBay and both times I either got my guns back and ate some shipping and had to repair he guns that were abused and the other I got my money but the crook got his too - PayPal ate that charge . ------------- Realshooter |

I think I'd be in better shape if it had been an ebay sale but it was in response to my wanted ad on American Airgunner. I'm looking into seeing what I can do wiht PayPal. ------------- Life is too short for delayed gratification. |

Wish you luck Joe. I am like you and have always trusted people but have been ripped off a couple of times. Makes me wonder why people do it when there is not a lot of money involved but then again things like maybe a 100 dollars is a lot to an average person. Deep down it is that trust you put in them and our hobby and it lets you down. So sad, but there a tons of other people out there that make up for it in some way. Stevec

So sorry to hear this, Joe. I also trust people and it has panned out for me 99+% of the time. I hope that PayPal can help you out. Even if it wasn't an eBay auction, if you paid for goods or services, I believe they will help you. I do know that if you send the $$ via their Friends and Family option, there is no recourse. ------------- Be Prepared |

Unfortunately I did get conned into using the "friends & Family" mode, PayPal has already informed me there is no recourse there. I checked with Discover card and they did hold out some hope but that is a work in progress at this time. 129 bucks is not going to destroy me and I'm not even angry, mostly just disappointed in myself that I overlooked so many obvious warning signs.  ------------- Life is too short for delayed gratification. |

Dang. So sorry, Joe. Makes me want to strangle those rats. If you have any $$ left from your budget, you can feel confident dealing with Louie. He is a good guy and a super-knowledgeable collector who has been on this forum for a long time (only 15+ years!).

Yes, I have no doubt Louie is the real deal and the gun he pictured is very nice, really pretty wood. But as I told Louie, $175 seems a lot to spend on a novelty just to say I have one. The quest to find one is the interesting part, once I have it in hand I'll probably shoot it 25 times then set it in a corner somewhere and forget it, just one more thing for the wife to dispose of after my passing.  ------------- Life is too short for delayed gratification. |

I think there are a few who can relate- I'm one of them, for that matter! I have to watch carefully the guns I allow to come home with me because if I didn't, I'd soon be overrun and then it would fall to others to dispose of them when I'm dead. That's not something I want to put anyone through. That said, why on earth do I sit here with 5 Daisy CO2 200s? I guess after learning how to resurrect them, I got a bit carried away. Sure, they're fun to shoot- but I don't need 5 of them! smh

That's what a lot of us older collectors are facing now. Had about 100 Daisy guns to get rid of and still working on doing it. That doesn't count the other toy guns and stuff. Seems it is taking as long to get rid of as it did to collect LOL Stevec

I hear what you are saying, and as a collector for almost 50 years, I made a decision with a tear in my eye to start selling some of my 150 Daisy guns about a year ago, not including a collection of western cap guns and holster sets, and a few other toy guns. I realize that this hobby attracts mostly us older characters, we grew up with watching western movies, playing with bb guns, cap guns, and we looked at the cowboy as a hero in our youth. It has been a great ride for me, much fun, but coming to an end. I have about 50 guns left plus several cap gun and holsters and a few other toy guns. Sad to watch them go, but it is what it is. ------------- LOUIE LeMASTER U S ARMY VIETNAM VETERAN 66-68 DAISY MUSEUM LIFETIME MEMBER # 40 tatankatoo@aol.com text or call 702-250-1937 |

Yes, I know. Funny thing though, my mom saved my old cap guns for me but the BB guns got handed down to the nieces and nephews, one of whoom still has my old plastic stocked Red Ryder but the M-38 is lost to history. ------------- Life is too short for delayed gratification. |
