First! Sorry that some fools ruin the enjoyable hobby of others for ya. Next. Never meet, take tons of pics, hang out all day waitin or prepackage anything for sale without a small deposit down. Your odds are far better if you already have a few greenbacks from them that they will show. Get a cheap, 30 dollar digi cam and send a few pics for nearly nothing. If there realy interested, then have em send you the cost of film, your time and developing to take a ton of specific pics for em. If they really want what your selling, theyll bend over backwards for a deal. Post on here. You wont get screwed . Bart will have them for lunch if someone here rips ya off.
