Why WTS guns are remaining untouched?

x1000 to what everyone said so far.

I have three guns up there. I'm a motivated seller, but the downage is really preventing me from keeping tabs on my post, or even updating my post. I seriously would like to lower the price, provide more pictures, etc...., but I'm just like "meh.......... it's not worth my time".

I might have to post them at my gun range on the notification board. A G26, and G21 (both roster) and a non roster XDs in 45ACP (discontinued model and a $300 gun out of state). That's what I might have to do (go $350 on the XDs 45ACP, less than what I paid new, haha, that's actually good for the community, roster guns losing premiums).

Just post them on CAguns. I have no problems selling there.

Not just here, but shops are slow too. I have friends who work in two different gun shops in two different cities. Both said sales have plummeted. Fear of tariffs, rising fuel prices and summer is basically here and they said business slows down even more in the summer. One guy said the used gun case is starting to fill up because people need the money. Not pretty at all.

Really? I thought certain someone single handedly saved the country from ruin and everything is the the best it's ever been...

Shame but the site is dead. Tried to PM a seller ON HERE about a gun i'd take in a heartbeat. Ready to buy it and do transfer anywhere in Norcal. Click on PMs sent and the entire site locks up permanently (in my case). Can't even tell if he got my PM and after trying for a while i just gave up.

I think it is a combination of things. The economy is not good. People want a lot for their guns
Buyers are looking for a deal. The site is not reliable anymore .

Combination of things...

Ive sold 2 high priced pistols here recently (3 total off list) that sold almost instantly ..... if people want it they will buy it....

Forum uptime plays a role. the site usually only works for me early in the mornings.....

Pm are hit or miss... so... I include an email in the add to skip all the headache....

Edit: Ive listed them on the other site too. But all 3 sold here. Even with all the issues

I'd rather buy a new gun than pay the same price for a used one here. People ask way too much for used guns, even if they've only had 200 rounds through them.

If you buy a lightly used gun here for the same price as new one at a shop, you just got it 20% off (no sales or excise taxes)

True, but people have different definitions of lightly used. I've been getting burned going to look at "lightly used guns" that look worse than guns I've fired thousands of rounds through. I've chased after a few Berettas and Brownings that "had a box or two through them and then put in the safe." I've shown up and they looked like they were filled with sand before those two boxes.
