Thank you so much for that information, Bob. I suspected as much, and hoped someone here would know him.
This all underscores the importance of the inspection period, and making sure you have a clear understanding about it before sending the check. Despite what the naysayer says, it is the buyer who is at risk anyway. he has your check and his gun in his hand before he sends it and also before he refunds your money, in the case of a return. Risky business at best.

stan: what you say above is so true...when all is said and done, the seller has your money and you are at his mercy...that is why a return policy is so important, as is feedback...and "you should know what you are buying"...i have been a buyer and seller on the net for many years. so i know from where you speak.
keep it simple and keep it safe...

Here is my inspection policy
If you do not like it, let me know within 3 days from the time it is received by the dealer. Have it back to me within 7 days
If I guy calls me and needs another day to two, I am ok with that.
Simple. Right

John Boyd Quality Arms Houston TX "Simple Right," yes and another reason why your not on here crying about guns not selling like Ed Good is. You know how to run a honest business that does not depend on deceptive photos,tarted up guns and shady return policy !

Heck I always encourage the buyer to shoot the thing to be sure it is really what they want. I'm happy to take returns up to a week after a buyer receives the gun, longer if they need it. You can not buy the amount of publicity one unsatisfied customer will give you. My only exception is lay away guns.

Ed you are probably a good guy but you are way off on this.... I give a 3 day if any reason you don't like it return it no questions asked.... If a guy says NO Tire KICKERS... that is a notice for me to run.. because some one is about to screw somebody!!!!!

Ed thanks for the post that shows your 1500 positive feed back but I don't want to be one of the 15 bad feed back that might have gotten burned or felt like they did.

jeweler, you may not be aware, but gunbroker feedback includes buyer and seller feedback in the same file.
if you take the time to sort thru it, you will find that all but two or three of my negative feedbacks are from sellers, where i as a buyer, had issues with them or their merchandise. some of those sellers are no longer allowed to sell on gunbroker.
we do not live in a perfect world, thank goodness...but, 99% positive feedback, from buyers and sellers alike, over a 13 year period, well, aint too shabby, if i do say so myself.
and if you have ever been in a retail business, as is gunbroker, you will realize that buying and selling with the general public can sometimes be a less than satisfactory experience. so, those experiences over the years teaches one what works and what to do and what not do to, in order to avoid those less than satisfactory experiences in the future.
