Step 1. You purchase the rifle on the sly and have it shipped to me.

Step 3. You excitedly call out to the Keeper Of The Treasury, "Honey, come see this! What a deal!", and show her the ad. Then you say, "This was posted two days ago. I just know someone got a great buy." She, of course, will say something like "Well, you ought to try anyway", knowing it will make her look good with little or no risk.
Step 4. I will confirm the sale to you via e-mail. And may even send it to you one day.
Semi, I just saw an ad very similar to that not too long ago. It was a different muzzleloader though..
