I like going through the sporting goods section and finding the sneaky ads. I heard you can find firearms before they get taken down, and since I've been looking, that is totally true. I've seen quite a few ads that say, "Email me before this ad get's flagged!!"

Anyway, I thought this one was funny. I looked at it and thought, those numbers seem familiar....

A favorite of mine was one I saw recently.

"XD 45 Tennis Racket"

It didn't get flagged, either.

I've seen alot of SKS ads, evidently there is some sort of roof rack that is also called 'SKS'. So they piggy back on those

The best one I have seen was a guy advertising a surefire flash light. He posted about 2 paragraphs on the light and posted "Selling sig p220 625" at the very bottom of the post.

I liked the one that said he was selling a home alarm system, and descibed it by saying it goes bang when the intruder is stopped

Darn, too late, both ads are gone. [Mad]

I have bought a few off that site.
Have not had the time to look in a while, you have to look FAST.

I have seen an add for a red dot scope. At the end of the ad it said "comes with HP995"

I also saw a Hipoint Security system model C-9. It stayed up a few days before getting flagged.

I bought my shotgun from an ad selling 4 choke tubes for a Stoeger M2000 with all accessories $325.
