I agree GZ- I don't know Mr. Legg from "Adam's Off Ox" and have no present plans to sell any firearms on the Internet-due to the hazards of inspection/description/return outlined in this thread, ditto the one on Cashier's Checks and the counterfeiting extant- I own guns that I inherited, bought privately; from local dealers and at area gun shows- so inspection was not a problem- The only dealer I dealt with, years ago, was Bill Jaqua (pronounced Jake Way) in Findlay Oh- at the Grand in Vandalia- I still see his ads in GUN DIGEST- believe he is retired, but Bill set a high standard for honest dealing, as has Felix Bedlan, Jack Puglisi, Thad Scott, John Allen and Stephen Cobb, among many others (and for those reputable dealers I ommitted-my apologies)! Bill had a three day no questions asked return on shipped guns-he started in the gun business in 1948 as an adjunct to this downtown Sporting Goods store in Findlay (Rawlings, Spaulding, Wilson, Acushnet etc back then) and I am sure has encountered such a situation as described herein- My question is- why spend the money (the cost to insure funds) and pay shipping if you are not 90% sure you are going to keep the gun!I'll give a dealer a reasonable profit- but to enrich the UPS/USPS?Fed Ex boys- well that's a horse of another color.

If you don't like some posters, just use your IGNORE button. It has worked great for me.

I'm taking pleasure from this topic!
Jim Legg has hit the ignore button on me for something I may, or may not of said somewhere in the distant past. He took pleasure in announcing his use of the ignore feature for all to read.
Fairplay, is fairplay Jimbo - I make no bones about it!

IM,
This thread alone has added another three names to my ignore list.

Destry, don't do that, it looses its entertainment value then.

I reviewed the Gunbrokers Users Agreement which both buyer and seller agree to when they sign up as users and here's what it states:
"Item is guaranteed to be working and as described when delivered; no other warranty (express or implied) is offered by seller. "
As far as I can see the buyer has 3 days or 5 days or whatever time is offered by the seller to determine if what he purchasd meets the above criteria and that's it.

Conejo, you have done it again!
I couldn't but imagine a flock of winged Briggs-Stratons of various HPs making their last descent to roost in your aviary. :-)
Great way to make a very valid point.
