Gunbroker.com... anyone have experience?

I have had an account with them for years now. If you are just going to be a buyer, make an account for just a buck. It is a safe gig. In fact, I have some Arisaka parts for sale on there right. I have also sold and will be posting again a couple of C&R elidgable rifles soon. You can't go wrong on Gun Broker.

Two thumbs up for Gunbroker.com

I've bought a few things off Gunbroker...

My Colt Commander, which was very difficult to find here in town, I got it at a fair price...That was a few years ago.

Purchased a Mossberg 410 shotgun, the seller shipped the wrong item. That deal was worked out though, no biggy.

My Remington 700 SPS Tactical in .223 was a Gunbroker purchase. Couldn't find it locally.

And, just about 15 minutes ago, I purchased a Walther PPK off the broker from a dealer in Delaware.

I've also purchased off of Gallery of Guns, which was also great.

#1 - check the feedback of the individual with whom you are interacting. Do not engage in business with people who have lots of negative feedback, and be wary of those with little to no feedback at all.

#2 - When purchasing, be sure to look at shipping restrictions and find on the page where they list the shipping charge. It's not always where you think it should be.

#3 - When purchasing, verify that they accept the method of payment you wish to use. I prefer money orders but some people will only accept discreet Paypal or other methods. When selling, make sure you list the payment methods you will accept.

#4 - If purchasing a receiver or firearm, check with the seller ahead of time and make sure they'll ship into state, and/or disassemble or leave out any normal-cap magazines.

Nice piece of advice. i've bought all kinds of firearm stuff and knives from a variety of sellers on GB. I've never had a bad experience... Use common sense my friend.
