Bought a PSE bow from him on Thursday, he said the sight was “loose”.

If by loose he means cracked and broken, then sure. But it was never mentioned until meeting up in person.

all in all, Shame on me for not knowing anything about what I’m buying.... but overall pretty terrible buying experience.

I hate when I miss something broken etc. until after I purchase. Happens occasionally. If it’s just a sight pin, or mount/bracket that’s in question, you can at least replace it with many options and not overly expensive.

It’s the mount, the entire mount needs replaced... unfortunately this was something I was purchasing to see if I wanted to go deeper into the sport where I spend much more.

I’ve spent $60 on much worse stuff, just had no intention of spending more money on a sight already.

Come to think of it, I have an older PSE Polaris Express disassembled in my workshop. I’ll dig around, pretty sure it has a decent sight mount with fiber optic sight pins. If it’s good to go you can have it. Just give me a chance to check.

Found it! Sight assembly in great shape, fully adjustable, fiber optic pins too. I’ll try to load pics, maybe see if it looks like it will fit your bow, it should.

TD12 I sent a message.

Granted, he should have disclosed the issue before the meet, but this would only be possible if he knew about it in advance. Are you quite sure about this?
I hate a liar, but from what you've posted, I'd say at least 1/2 the blame is on you.
He told you of the an issue at the meet, you inspected it, and accepted the transaction.

I don't know either of you, but I'd be damned sure I knew for a FACT that the guy intentionally set out to deceive me before I cast aspersions upon his character.

Best of luck with your new (to you) bow.

Building on Mgderf, he said it was loose. But why? Why couldnt it be tightened? That is a question that should have been asked.

I understand you are upset, but I think there is blame to go around.
