How many ways does this auction listing say "Don't bid on me?"

SaxonPig Well, a 95% gun cannot be described as minty....

Exactly.
"Mint condition" is a term from coin collecting, meaning the coin is in the same condition as it left the mint.

If you use the term "mint" in regards to firearms it should mean exactly the same thing, a firearm that is in the same condition as it left the factory. That means 100% finish, never fired, never carried, no wear, no rust, etc.

Calling a 95% gun "minty" shows the seller has no idea what the word means.


Where's the link to this awesome auction listing?

I couldn't care less about the "minty" buzzword.

Never fired and yet...

changed grips.
95%.
And handling marks.

So perfect, and yet an imperfect photo.

Good times.

For those of you who want the link, I can't find it which means the auction must have ended. I was curious to see whether it sold but they don't have an ended items search like eBay does.

with only minor handling marks as to be expected

Nobody takes issue with the "as to be expected" part of this?

To me auction listings like you described don't say do not bid on me they scream run away!

OK, we're starting to get kind of silly and wander around, so I'm going to say this one has reached its conclusion.
