How do I insure Safe transactions?
All transactions consummated via FloridaSportsman are solely between the buyer and seller. FloridaSportsman is purely a listing service that offers a variety of tools for its users to meet and conduct transactions. The following features are in place at FloridaSportsman to assist our members in transacting more safely.
FEEDBACK: FloridaSportsman recommends that all parties exchange feedback after each transaction, and most people do so. This provides a history about a member's transactions, and lets you contact other members who have transacted with that person. Any member's feedback can be viewed from within any for sale ad, or via the "Member Lookup" on our home page. URL: http://cgi.FloridaSportsman.com/cgi-bin/searchm.pl
VERIFIED MEMBERS The internet is an anonymous venue, and FloridaSportsman is generally not able to confirm any of the information posted by its members. However, we do offer a program that confirms the address of a credit card. If a member has completed this process, each of their for sale ads and the Member Lookup will indicate "Verified".
