Selling on Gunbroker

[SC Living Outdoors]

Have any of y'all ever sold a gun on gunbroker? I've bought a good bit, but never sold. If you have sold on gunbroker could you send me a PM so I could ask you some questions. I have a custom pistol I built that I want to sell.

TIA

I have sold a couple pistols. Just stock ones

I haven't sold a gun in a long time but have sold a bunch of reloading components and the GunBroker seller fees have gotten pretty high.

Be sure to plan to pay for an FFL transfer and shipping. The last rifle I sold had to ship through an FFL and including the $25 FFL transfer my end of the deal was like $75 to ship. Do what you can to not have to pay the extra GunBroker fees by trying to sell here first.

Like others I have bought but not sold on GunBroker. What I don't like about GunBroker is there's no live person contact if there's an issue or question. What you get is a stock answer from a computer that may or may not solve the question.

That stock answer is with all these scum internet companies. They just want to unload their crap. If there's a problem, it's your problem not theirs. Customer friendly, right? Irritates the piss outta me. That's America these days. A bunch of users. They all bury their phone number so you have to spend 45 mins trying to find it, instead of posting it in big numbers on the home page in the top right corner. what I find is that most of these websites need editing. I volunteer to edit it for them. Lamebutts. Amazon started this sht of ignoring customers. Pump & dump.....on you.

I have bought quite a few items from GB. If I want to sell something there are plenty of places that offer Classified sections for free.
List your item right here on HT and see what happens.

I just gave up on this fight with Allstate insurance yesterday. Our policy expires soon. I will go with our small town guy, who might be a bit more, but I have his cell phone number, and will be hunting with him this year.

What happened to the Carolina Trader? That's how I sold everything back when I lived there.

Selling guns online is simple. You get a copy of the FFL you're shipping to and ship it. The snag for you is you want to ship a pistol which can be a hassle. The only way I do it is using https://www.shipmygun.com/go/

I feel like gunbroker's fees have gone nuts. I haven't listed anything on there in a while because of it. We have some widely used classified for guns in GA, though.

@SCliving Outdoors did you get it figured out?

 

[CoHunter1991]

I'm looking to sell a new action and a rifle, Other than Gun Broker and here, does anyone have any suggestions where they have had success?

My FFL guy isn't affiliated with any storefront gun shops. He has sold a couple for me to some of his other clients. You might give your FFL sales info and see what happens.
What type rifle do you have for sale?

Long Range Hunting has a much better classifieds section than here. Wouldn't waste your time with Rokslide's anymore, though.

I’ve bought used guns from guns.com

Not sure how it is selling through/to them, but they buy used guns.

 

[CoHunter1991]

Okay sounds good, I’ll look into what that requires.

Armslist
GunListings

The other sites have too many hoops to jump through, IMO

 

[CoHunter1991]

Armslist... I had forgotten about that place. Ill give it a go there also.

It changed from free to $8 monthly access fee. Surprisingly, there are still enough subscribers to buy stuff. I have signed up for x4 memberships at $8 a pop, then cancel as soon as the item sells.
