I have sold probably a dozen or more guns on GB and never had a problem. I do several things, especially with ANY online company:
- get a telephone number and talk to an actual person.
- get their FFL telephone number, even in states that do not require one.
- that last item usually pisses them off!
- ask for a reference or two from prior sales or buys and their numbers.
- I DO NOT ALLOW BIDDING AT ALL, set price, take it or leave it.
- The buyer or if it is me the shipping estimate is included in the overall price.
The last item(s) I sold were a pair of Sharps 45-70 rifles and a Remington Rolling Block 45-70, dies, cases, loaded rounds and all of it went to the buyers FFL in TN and I received the money order even before things were shipped and it took a while to make up three hard gun cases and a hard case for the parts, ETC. I talked to the buyer half a dozen times on the phone, did the same when I sold my "black rifles".
