re: Anyone here ever bought a used bow off archery talk?

One of my sons traded regularly on Archery Talk and all transactions were successful except 1 of about 10. The unsuccessful involved a jackass in Colorado who never sent the bow. The jackass got my son’s bow and kept it along with about 20 others. A policeman called us after they caught the jackass and went thru all of his records. After describing his bow to the policeman, he waited until they could release it back to him. All good at the end of the one bad ordeal. It’s a trust site where you have to trust the other party.
