No, I'm saying that people are SUPPORTING the club by helping out. Others don't feel like it's necessary. Not saying it's wrong, just saying there is a difference.

No - what he's saying is people whom have invested a financial contribution in to a place are far less likely to be shady than those who don't when it comes to classifieds. Not that EVERYONE who doesn't contribute is a scammer....but I do the same thing - I'm more open and .....trusting.... of deals with club members than forum members. No offense at all, just how we roll... Post count is also a major factor.

either way if i am holding cash in hand why should i be different than anyone else. its unfortunate that he was scammed, lesson learned, but thank god it was only $100 and not a $1000. and the fact that someone is or isnt a club member doesnt mean that they are more or less likely to scam someone.
 
im not tryin to get into a pissing match with anyone, i just feel like i havent done anything to hurt/disrespect anyone on this site, and im always willing to help someone out when i feel i can, and im less respected because i didnt spend $25. if you ask me its penis envy lmao:uzi:

No, that's different. Right now I have a deal between me and another club member, me paid me in full for an item thats too big of a PITA to ship because he wanted it but our schedules kept conflicting to meet. He offered to pay for it in full and we'd meet up when we could. He's a club member thats been around for a while.. Had it been a non-club member I wouldn't have done it.. We're meeting up this weekend, 1 month after we first started talking about doing the sale.
 
LOL @ the people who are judging someones integrity or character based on if they pay a few bucks to be a paid member on an internet forum.

Like paying dues here makes you a better person than someone who doesn't.
