My newest hobby is woodworking (I suck at it BTW). Today, some guy posted on FB marketplace some nice pecky cypress boards. He was looking for $200+ (About $12 a board). I contact him, I ask him what’s the least he would take for it, he says $200. I tell him $80 is the best I can do, he takes it. He lives in a SCARY arse place out in St Amant. I call a couple friends to see if they could go with me, but of course they are tied up with family.
So I head down there with my trusty CC .380. I pull up among three trailers, not even mobile homes, but run down camper trailers like you see in Nye County, on LivePD.
There was three really nice pecky boards in the pictures that he sent me, that weren’t there when I got there. I ask about them, he plays stupid, so I show him the picture he sent me. He says,”Oh yeah, they are back here.” He moved them behind the “shed”. We load my truck and he had said he would take PayPal. I pay him and his PayPal acct puts a hold on the money. This whole time, another guy couldn’t stand still, walking around, circling behind me, etc. I finally just stand with my back to my truck while keeping my eye on them. The first guy finally says his PP acct won’t work, he needs cash. He refunds the payment, and I pay him cash, getting the frick out of there as quick as I could.

You didn't mention seeing the lab in your story.

So it didn't exist?

So, you didn't get any meth or get robbed?
Kind of a boring story.

If you believe this person is sketchy, why the frick would you want to use PayPal with them in the first place?

I'll take a picture the next time I'm at the camp that will make you lose your mind.

Hundreds of pecky boards.

You need to smarten up or find a new hobby.


You want to find cool wood to work with go talk to ranchers/farmers with old structures.

I was thinking this story was going in the direction that the movie pulp fiction went when they got tied up in leather bondage stuff

so you never saw a meth lab? I'm calling BS on this made up story and by the way there are no labs anywhere in Louisiana . The cartels make meth faster and cheaper then anyone else. Why would someone in the states spend more money making meth than what they could buy it for already made.

I went to buy a pirogue from a feller a few years back and was in a similar situation. It was off of the FB marketplace. He looked like a normal guy on his FB. Wife, kids, job, etc. When I showed up to his house in New Iberia he was was about 50 lbs lighter and obviously strung out. As I was inspecting the pirogue he kept trying to maneuver himself behind me and was trying to close the distance. I carry but it was still nerve racking, I don't like putting myself in potentially dangerous situations and I feel I made a big error in judgement. I ended up buying the pirogue because I was pretty sure he would try to rob me if I didn't. I was worried I'd have to use force. It's a pretty nice pirogue, still use it.
