K so i am selling this coat and this kid with username mattskiskate said he would buy it for 65 plus shipping, it took him forever to respond his account was just created and he has no pictures or videos also hes only friends with pros and pro groups, when we were discussing the shipping he tried to get me to send out the coat on the same day he sent out the money i tod him we should try and work something else out because i was worried about getting scammed, as soon as i said this he responded saying he couldn't buy it because his "mom said he couldn't because it was a shell"

just wondering if anyone has ever had any problems with this guy or if anyone has any advice on scammers/scamming and if i was right by thinking he was a scammer

Word to the wise, do not think twice about the guy, just make sure he pays first or else do not sell it.

How is this a scam? He said he'd buy the jacket, and backed out... It's what kids do on NS, screw sellers over!

I think he was just worried that it seemed the kid might be attempting to scam him. Nothing more, and yeah dude do not sweat it, just do not sell it to him. -karma and bad feedback work well sometimes.
