I think texkev said he can't see PMs either. The only way the staff can see them is if it is reported.
GFGT is right on sometimes you just get a feeling. We field reports that are "something doesn't seem right here."
As far as @Bassat 's concerns: as the seller you set the terms. Your terms may include "I'm not selling to anyone who hasn't been vetted by the process of having X number of posts and I need to see an IN DL and LTCH." That could be for a handgun, ammo, a fish tank, artwork (Elvis on black velvet or dogs playing poker, don't see a lot of Monet prints here) you get the idea. Staff's position: if it's within the rules, we good.
Back to the "Site Supporter with ZERO posts": some are just new to the site. Some know the staff can't see PMs and are up to skullduggery and foul play. Staff can see PMs by hitting the report button. With no posts it's really hard to find a user. Hitting report makes it A WHOLE LOT easier.
Who produces a better profit margin?
The $20.00 a year thats paid to stay a
Site Supporter with single digit posting.
Or
The member that does 52 posts and works the classifieds for years?
I would guess The Site Supporter.

Skullduggery? Those rapscallions!

I used to work with a guy that would say "perfect paranoia creates perfect awareness "
As others have said, it isn’t required, especially now that we have constitutional carry. I do know some people look at it as due diligence that the person isn’t a prohibited person. If you got a funny feeling, you did the right thing.
Thats the nice thing about private sales or even selling a gun in a shop as the owner or an employee. If you don't feel comfortable with the sale then you have every right to say no.
I'd rather error on the side of caution than one of my personal firearms being involved in a crime if I could have prevented it. Or make an illegal sale.
Cover your own ass, always
Bingo! We have a winner.
If you have a question, ALWAYS ask the question.
Better than not knowing.
As others have mentioned, he (or she) doesn't need a LTCH.
And as the seller, you have the right to not sell.
You can require the LTCH if you want, or not require it.
You can look at his post history and deny the sale because of not liking it, or because of a lack of history.
It is a voluntary transaction, on both sides.
And I repeat... Always ask the question. Better to find out.
Not an over reaction. You had concerns and asked questions. Nothing wrong with that at all.
In fact, that is the way it should work. It is precisely why we are a "community," to help each other.
Not sold, yet.Exactly.
Has the gun sold yet? Which one are we talking about?
WTS: - Sig-Sauer P365 w/manual safety (New Prices 5/11)
Very good condition Sig-Sauer P365 (original model/size). Best guess is 1500 rounds through it. Some wear is noticeable on the: slide release, takedown lever, magazine release. Over 100 each of 115gr Hornady Critical Defense and 147gr Federal HST with no problems. I've never had a failure to...

No, there is not.
However, if you knowingly sell to a felon, that's illegal.
Some people see a LTCH as evidence that a person is not a felon, and therefore require it for a sale for their own piece of mind.
There have been several threads hashing out why someone would or wouldn't or should or shouldn't do this, but ultimately it's up to the seller, and not a legal requirement.

I wonder, do you think it's possible that a person could get a LTCH and then sometime after that collect a felony charge. Then present said LTCH during a private sale? Or do the authorities take away your little pink card upon a felony conviction?

Nope, nothing would stop someone from doing that. That point was also brought up in the thread I saw on the subject, and, IIRC, the folks who liked to see a LTCH were saying that it's not so much about it proving that someone isn't a felon, but just that it gives them something they could point to in their own defense and say that they were at least doing some sort of due diligence to try an not sell to a felon.
