Is it still 80 miles from Oregon or did that last earthquake shift you a bit closer to the boarder? 😲

Hello. I'm probably on the wrong forum but wasn't sure where to start. I've sold on GB in the past but now I have some ammo to sell and have found shipping costs too expensive to sell small amounts. Is it possible to post with pickup only. I'm in a state where private sales are legal.

Welcome @rand4cc , yes you can specify local pickup only in your auction, I've seen it many times on ammo auctions.

I'm new here, but have bought from GB in the past, just found the forum. Have a question to ask, not sure where to ask it at, if this is not the place please get me to the right area.
I placed a bid on a hand gun and immediately went up by $2.00, I did this a few time more and the same thing happened, up by $2.00, I did noticed that the bidder started a week back and the date never changed. How does this happen? Thank you

Welcome @Blue Triker when someone enters their bid it is a "max bid" however the actual bid shown as the current bid amount will only increase the amount by enough to be the current "wining" high bidder. This can happen as many times as it takes up until it reaches your max bid amount at which time you can bid again with a higher amount if you want to. Lot's of buyers can't and won't watch an item all the time they just enter the total they are willing to spend and let it go, sounds like that is what you are seeing. You are bidding against the others guys max bid which hadn't been reached yet.

Look at item #979265393 Hi Standard Double Nine Posse Ser. l1345703, I just placed a bid of $87, it immediately went to $89, I placed the bid today 4/1, the one who outbid me, his date 3/31. I don't understand?

@Blue Triker please read about the auto bidding process at this link:
https://support.gunbroker.com/hc/en-us/articles/221374368
I tried to explain it to you above... the current wining bidder on that auction entered their max bid on the 3/31 date and so that is the date shown, if you want to beat them you will have to bid beyond whatever their max bid is. There is no way to know that amount until you reach it or beyond and you take over as the leader until you win or get outbid.
Good luck

Thank you, I think I understand it now.

Welcome to the club, @Blue Triker !
A strategy that most of us use most of the time is to simply figure out what the maximum amount we are willing to pay is and then enter that number as our bid. Use the 'Advanced Search' feature to research what those guns have gone for in the past and that'll give you a pretty good indication of what the one you're lookin' at will go for. Here's what I found for the gun you're lookin' at.
Hi Standard Double Nine W-104 22LR Revolver with Leather Holster - Revolvers at GunBroker.com : 976158463
Buy Hi Standard Double Nine W-104 22LR Revolver with Leather Holster: GunBroker is the largest seller of Revolvers Pistols Guns & Firearms All: 976158463Willing to go that high?

Definite new user here. I'm hoping to sell a rifle on GunBroker but want to ask if a newbee can do that? I've listed and sold a lot of things on eBay and understand the differences in selling a firearm, such as needing to ship to an FFL all. But it appears most people listing firearms for sale on GunBroker already have a LOT of reviews from previous sales. Can listing a rifle for sale be one of the first things I do here?

Welcome to the forums. Good luck with your gun sale. It is perfectly acceptable to sell a rifle as your first offering. If you would like to come back to the forums here with a link to your listing that is encouraged. There are many buyers here and self promotion of GB auctions are a good thing.

Ok thanks Mr Perfect. 65xxx posts, WOW!!
It'll be a Browning A-Bolt II Stainless Stalker in 300 Win Mag. I hunted with it for a number of years here in the Colo mountains and now that I needed to photograph it I see more scuffs than I realized:-(

Welcome Coloradoguy_2! Another option for selling a firearm here is to let someone else do it for you. My wife sold one of her handguns a while back through member Locust Fork. It was super easy and all above board. You should contact her! Just click on her name below and you can send her a message.

GREETINGS, ALL.
I am a "NOOB" to the forum, but not to the auction site. I hope to learn more about firearms as well as forum and auction site operations.
I am an avid firearms shooter/collector, hoping to return to competitive shooting, now that working for a living is somewhat less of an issue. Anyone with common interests is welcome to make contact.
