Purchasing from Gunbroker

[B. Dudley]

Some sellers may cross post and market their guns in both locations. But not very often.

A commonly seen scam is where someone will hijack photos from a guns international listing and crop off the GI watermark and then put up a gunbroker listing for the gun using those photos. Usually the descriptions are minimal. And the price will always be half what the gun is “worth” making it very attractive to bidders.
These scam sellers will usually be NR (no review) sellers on Gunbroker meaning they have no feedback rating. OR the ratings will be very low. Like 1 or 2. And usually those ratings are from other scam accounts. They work together to try and pad up feedback ratings to make their accounts look more legit.

Maybe if you share examples of the listings you mention, we can advise.


One company that is posting a lot of GI is Guns.com. And they have their own website and run their own auctions on there as well as fixed price sales. They are just using GI to try and boost their exposure. Which will just end up biting GI in the ass in the future as Guns.com is their competitor. And, They are BAD NEWS based on recent experiences I had with them.
