Is it safe to buy a gun from Gunbroker using a money order or certified check? I have never bought anything without a credit card online. In this day in age, why would a firearm seller not have that option?
As a construction contractor, I went for 14 years without the option to take cards and only took personal checks or cash. I had a couple customers who wanted the option to use a card but still paid by
check anyway. Even then I still got a mobile merchant account to take credit cards and I only have taken one in the last year so I don't lose any sales. How can you run a business online where 99.99%
of the time people are using a card? Is this giving the seller a way to hide from repercussion if things don't go his way? The seller has a A+ rating with about a hundred transactions but not taking cards has me skittish.
The item in question is very in demand right now and is the last one available in any auction at the moment online. I watched every other one the last couple weeks be purchased while this lone one still stands.
The only thing that separated this one and the others is that the seller doesn't take cards.
