So a good friend of mine is looking for a used but good condition glock 19 or 17. He is not a member of this forum for now.
I'm trying to help. Can post a WTB in the trading post for the G19 and link his email or is it his email violating the trading post rule?

I feel like it's the latter.

You can facilitate the whole WTB for him... Be explicit that it is for your friend, and that you do/don't vouch for him. Then you need to field any responses via PMs from potential sellers, and coordinate and reply back with responses from your friend. Keep in mind, the way this deal goes down will reflect on your reputation here.

Don't post his email, it is shady, and opens him up to lots of spam.


I'd also encourage you to have your friend register. If he wants the gun now you can still facilitate, but 30 days from now he can do it all on his own. Doesn't cost nothin'

I figured it's be a bad idea to give off his contact info. I might see if he want to become a member here, and just mention he wanted a Glock on the "newbie thread" and anyone WTB can feel free to PM him, since he won't be seeing trading post in a month.
