So your saying, the buy can't trust the seller because they don't know them but their willing to let another total stranger hold the money...
I don't know most people on here per'se, but as a MEPD officer I trust the system in place, ie; 501st honesty. When I purchased my TS, I sent $120 to Cal for 6 months and I received the armour ok. If it was from a new Legion trooper I would be a little hesitant to part with cash, but as far as the legion goes, I'm happy. As was said in a previous post, trooper helping troopers. If I did have a problem with a purchase I would hope a local trooper from the area of the seller would pay a visit on my behalf, as I would this side of the pond.
