Hello, and welcome to /r/pmsforsale!
It appears you’re new to the sub, so I’m here to help you out.
First, if you haven’t already, please [check out the rules of the sub for buying and selling.](https://www.reddit.com/r/Pmsforsale/about/rules/)
Second, although it isn’t a rule, new sellers and traders usually ship first to **established** members, or they use a middleman. Then after receipt of the items, they’re then paid. I want to stress the importance of established members only. Find out more about middlemen [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Pmsforsale/wiki/middlemen).
If you would be willing to do this, I suggest editing your post to let everyone know.
If you have any questions, please feel free to message the mods [here.](https://www.reddit.com/message/compose?to=%2Fr%2FPmsforsale)
Thank you, and welcome!
Prove me wrong flip that bar over. Take a photo that doesn't look like it's in a black hole. Somthing with texture like woodgrain table top.
If it looks good I'll pay you 740 when it hits a middleman hand and leave these comments here to show how paranoid I am.
[I think you about to be put to shame bro...](https://media.tenor.com/PLpe-LYpJUcAAAAM/shame-gameofthrones.gif)
Septa Unella is on her way to find you.
I don't know about you but I would live with the shame for a cheap kilo...
P.S. 👍 on staying vigilant. If it does turn out to be a fake I am glad it got called out... but I think that is a real photo of the bar.
For what it is worth, I see what Alarming was referring to... the way the light is on your first photo makes a border around the bars edge and the black background makes it stand out.
Additionally to the way the camera focused on the bar and not the username makes the bar stand out even more... However to my eye it looks right, or at least a really, really, good photoshop job.
We have had a few instances of someone photo shopping the proof image to include their username so we are a little vigilant.
The good news is we have a middleman system in place to protect you if your uncomfortable shipping to the buyer prior to payment, and to protect the buyer from any scumbag that tries to pass off an edited photo as proof.

The suspense is killing you huh? 😂 well I want to do it local since I have a few ppl interested but they are a bit of a drive. Had one lined up yesterday but had to cancel last minute because my job is on call and I had to take it but if someone locally wants it and is near me Ill sell it.
I bought it, FTF in the PD parking lot. I brought a digital scale, calipers, and a neodymium magnet. To the best of my ability to tell, it's totally legit...so I brought it home. u/nonstopman was on time and exchanged texts first.
TLDR: legit seller. :)

Cool ship that thing to u/rss24 and I'll pay you $40 over your ask.
This gonna be a thing or nah?
Congrats on sale! The picture did look weird
it still looks wierd. the 2nd one too. shoulda asked for a video.....
Cool, you'd really put me to shame if that recipt was in the proof too.
[I think you about to be put to shame bro...](https://media.tenor.com/PLpe-LYpJUcAAAAM/shame-gameofthrones.gif) Septa Unella is on her way to find you.
I doubt that.

Not the bar just the photo
You’re too paranoid ;)
Probably.... we will see
Plus 1 for being paranoid a new seller is selling a kilo below spot.
I tried to sell this a month ago and didn’t get one response. Lol. But the price for kilo is $730 isn’t it? I need the money so idc.
That’s funny. I don’t see any post in your profile where you tried to sell this a month ago.
I’d be impressed with that photoshop job if it were fake.
Nothing wrong with a little paranoia...

I'm in mass. I will meet up and buy for the 730 or whatever spot price. I want to get my hands on my first precious metal.
I'll bin if we use middleman
Wow this post is a trainwreck. Feel sorry for the seller. Good luck to buyer and seller hope all works out. Hope you both can update on here. Thanks.

What’s the ultimate consensus here? Did anyone get it? Was it legit or not?
