You have to pay $7/month in order to post a listing or contact a seller. So now you have to pay to deal with scammers. Don't be surprised if gun and ammo costs rise even more since it's that much harder to find stuff.

I noticed that the other day. I'm not giving them $7/mo. I sent them an email letting them know they're biting the hand that feeds them since there's a fee when you sell something. At least the sellers have a better understanding of what a gun should sell for compared to Gunbroker.

I actually think Gunbroker is kind of more reasonable because it's all pretty much market pricing due to the auctions. At least GB doesn't charge buyers to contact a seller or to buy. All Armslist has done is shrink the pool drastically.

Yup. I'm about to put a couple "spare" pistols on GB just because I want to offload them but for the most part, I don't do much business over there. Apparently, I won't be doing any more business are Armslist.

Whatever happened to the good old days when we found them in the classifieds of the newspaper ?

Made a couple decent deals on Armslist, but nothing in years. Quit looking at it long ago unless someone links to it. GB is fine with me.
