What's wrong with ebay? Tons of old shells on there. You have to state that the shells are not included, You have to advertise your product as a "box", but the buyers know that you will ship the shells if you picture them. Of course, picturing ammunition may not be allowed any more, I don't keep up that well.

We sold done thermal imaging optics on Ebay . My god they rape you on fees from using their site then again when they force you to use their Paypal company for the financial part of the transaction ! I think on Gunbroker now a $1000 sale costs us about $30-35 in fees on Espray the same thing would most likely be about $100 when you figure in Paypal .

I usually charge folks a flat rate of 10% when I sell for them on Gunbroker . So if you brought me a whatever and wanted to get $1000 I would list it at $1135 . You'd get yours I'd get mine and GB would get theirs .

Craig: One of the up sides besides the Parker Pages is you get to purchase said items and there has been some great buys on here which you never see not being a member. Thomas
