Selling stuff on Gunbroker is...

[Moose242]

...the way to go.

If you have tried to sell anything, not just gun stuff, on local forums then you know how it is. People lowball, offer to trade crap, and it bothers the hell out of you. I recently started selling off anything I don't need on gunbroker and let me tell you, it works.

Set the starting price near where you want and a buy it now price that is high as hell and people bite every time. Sure, you have to give them a small percentage of what you make but I just offset that in the shipping cost, and it is worth not having to deal with mouthbreathers offering to trade you grandpa's 30-30 for your top of the line firearm. I have been buying stuff from the site for years but just started selling and it is the way to go. If you are familiar with ebay then you can use gunbroker no problem, it has more or less the same interface.

Anyways I just thought I would pass this along as I have had very good luck lately. If any board members want me to GB something for them I would be more than happy to for free in order to increase my feedback rating!

I've had good luck on gunbroker as well.

As an FFL I sell there. 0 headaches and drama. No lowballers to deal with. DOHCTR is spot on about GB.

I've sold a few things on there and bought a few guns without any complaints.

NO DOUBT, Totally agreed. Another big thing thats taken off are those Facebook gun-trader pages...they are full of low-ballers and NOOBS trying to trade 715ts for glocks. I have also seen people post pics of their stuff, serial numbers and all...Also chocked full of gouging arguments and people bitching about the ammo shortage and availability, and the rising cost of ammo. GB ALL THE WAY!!!

I sell shit on there daily. I have some M79 parts on there right now that I'm waiting to see where they go.

I still low ball on GB unless its already a good deal. I do it in a polite way though. It never hurts to ask.

I don't mind buying (when reasonable) off GB.

I don't like selling because I hate dealing with shipping.

I've had much better luck on Texas Hunting Forum selling for cash FTF.

I'm right there with you, I don't want to deal with shipping if I can help it. However, I hate how strict that are on THF. You can post a gun and but can't answer questions about it without them getting pissy and telling you to take it to PM's.

I use gb for foreign sellers.

The ads on the FB Gun Trader pages crack me up. People asking $650 for used XDs and saying their $300 Taurus has a $700 trade value.

DOHCTR, PM coming. I have guns that need sellin.

I have, you just have to filter the BS. Picked up a few good deals, and made a few interesting connections. bought a Taurus 92AF for 3 bills, then traded it for a DPMS A-15 +100$ within a week. Everyone was happy.
