All good advice/practices mentioned here. I'll also add that once gun is over around $2k or more, I usually want to talk to the seller on the phone(just to ask questions about the gun and get a feel for who I am dealing with).

That doesn't always happen, but if something doesn't feel right or if I need a few more details before I bid. I usually enjoy the phone call as good sellers don't mind talking about what they have listed. Good sxs relationships can start this way.

One last thing if something feels off, "cut and paste" the description(or parts of it) and see what Google will come up with. If it is double listed or something fishy is going on you'll usually find it, as scammers don't take the time to alter the description.

Some of you may remember. I bought a 28g VH that Brian restocked wonderfully that was initially listed on Guns International, but listed on GunBroker a few times as well.
