Yeah, I noticed that one too and it looks mighty fishy.
I bought some rifle shells on Gunbroker and the guy claims UPS won’t ship them so he is going to refund my money. We’ll see. Only 80 bucks at least. |

Wondering if we should get Medieval on some of these crooks and report them to the ATF

Vintage Firearms and beanbaron, two well known GB players, have bid it up to $3000. Lisaneil, the seller, is NR and from Iowa. I would be very surprised if either of these two buyers would send money before having the gun in hand or at a mutually acceptable escrow agent. I sure wouldnt. Anybody here from near West Burlington IA?

I got my money back on the shells at least. This will help ease my gunbroker addiction

I have not purchased any guns from GB for the reasons all have discussed. As for why the increase in scammers, I believe it is also an issue for other on-line purchases. I am shopping for a certain sports car and have emailed sellers 3-4 times with no response. The one who did respond was "in Iraq", the car was advertised as being in California and the "broker" where I could send payment was in some little town in Iowa!! Called the town's CoC and they never heard of the business. As I suspected.

I had an idea...
Whenever an obvious scam is found for a Buy it Now fixed price. People should just "buy it". That will end the listing. Just to get the opportunity to leave negative feedback saying the seller is a scammer. And just keep buying them to get the listings to end when resisted. I highly doubt that these guys are reporting non-paying bidders. So it would be no skin off the buyers back. But of course deals like this are like trying to kill cockroaches. or more like whack-a-mole.
