Never sold a gun online. Where have you sold online and had good experiences?
Gun Broker has gotten me higher prices than I anticipated when selling used firearms, around 8 to date. Auction mode, $1 to start. My situation is probably unusual as I have an FFL so I save on the transfer. Its a bit of a pain to set up an acct but its worked for me, even after their commissions.
Have heard good things about a free site called GAFSHUB but no personal experience there.
Never have.
If I was going to get rid of some guns via the Net instead of in person at LGS, I’d probably first check Bud’s Gun Shop. They purchase used guns from private sellers over the Net. My guess is I could get a few more bucks selling to a private party via the Net (GB, gun forum listings and all that) but not interested.
Good to know, thanx. Will investigate.
Always done private sales in the past, but interested to see what others are doing these days. I don’t tend to buy or sell much these days.
I usually only get rid of guns on trade. I don’t get as much for them but also don’t experience the ass pain of selling them individually.
Been awhile since I traded anything though. Kind of past that point in life, I’m sure you understand how they just get new stable mates and no one goes away. LOL.

If you do a private sell, get a bill of sale. It is a hassle when the FBI tracks you down from your 4473 and you have to explain it leaving your hands after it ends up passing a few hands 3 states over.

It’s been gun shows last few years.
Sold one to a gun store, too.
I have regretted letting a Couple of Pistols get away, A Custom Ruger .Stainless Security Six 357 that a TABC Agent sold me, just couldn’t be replaced again. It had been tuned and gone over by Profeesionals, I sold it for $400.00 and the Guy later told me I ripped him off.
