RE: Kbacon....was I a sucker?
Oh yeah, I know Kbacon, not personally but I sold him a 4" Doinker on ebay and it took for freakin' ever to get the money from him. I finally called him and he sent the money. Sounds like you're getting taken for a ride.
Tecumseh isn't that far of a drive to get your back in person. A tank or two of gas is cheaper than eating the cost a new bow, plus you already know where he lives.
