It's been a while since I used Gunbroker. Can non FFLs not sell anymore?

[gregp74]

Sorry if I posted this in the wrong place.

I was getting ready to put a couple things up for sale on Gunbroker and it's telling me I need to set up a payment gateway. Difficulty: Apparently you need to be a business with an FFL to do so. Is that correct? Can that little guy just trying to sell off a couple extra guns no longer do so on there? Are there any alternatives? As much as I like listing things here it just doesn't have the same traffic level as GB.

You can still sell on GB. I just sold a rifle on there a month ago.
You have to put a payment source into your account, and when something is sold, GB collects their fees AND sales tax right away.

It's up to you to add the sales tax to the transaction AFTER the auction closes.

Ask me how I found this out...after the fact.

Far as having to be an FFL...unless that's changed the last few weeks...no, you don't have to be.

Thanks I'll have to take another look at it. It was pretty late when I was trying maybe I was doing something wrong.

Yeah I'm going to give everything a shot here first. GB gets more exposure but the fees suck.

I've bought guns recently from non-FFL's on GunBroker. So, yes, it can be done.

Yeah I've sold them on there before. When I was trying to do it again last night it kept telling me though I had to set something up I'd never had to do before. Like I said I was tired -- might have clicked on the wrong thing somewhere.

Yes. Deduct the GB fees from your GB price and put it up on the THR Trading Post and you may be surprised. No GB BS and known "nice guys" of THR to deal with.
