Thanks to those of you that expose these crooks. It seems to me, though, that there is nothing but upside for these scammers. At worst they get discovered and nothing happens; at best, they rip one of us off for a good payday then nothing happens.

Bored at work today. Looking at GB and found Desert Eagles. All of the old stock in the search were scam posts. Gold plated, chrome, blued and stainless. All of them were 1000 to 1050. NEW OLD STOCK!! All sellers with NR or F ratings. Probably still there. This is getting ridiculous.

www.gunbroker.com/item/900417719Surprised this hasnt been flagged as a possible fraud by GB. NR seller, with fishy sounding payment plan. Too good to be true price. Good grief.

GB just got sold so that may be part of the problem why everything seems to have slowed down. They did take of a few of the scammers I have monitoring but several I reported last weekend are still there.
I don't think they are fooling many people... They demand electronic payment for their guns and that usually just earns them an F...

I have been tracking these jerks since May. Some make up other profiles and give themselves good feedback. It's not hard to smoke them out. I have gotten contact info on one of them. Doesn't match the GB address. If you know guns you should know there are no LNIB 1970's Pythons for 1200 buy it now. Or Gold Desert Eagles new old stock for 1800. Brand new Glocks for 425. The people who get ripped off are new to GB or just gullible. This is going to tarnish the reputation if GB doesn't figure something out.

Yea, that's another one who has no clue what he is talking about... I'm still in Idaho and haven't had time to mess with it for a while. Will get back on them once I get back home... Bob

Because I have been out of state for a while, I haven't had time to mess with the Scammers...
I spotted one on Friday morning trying to sell a used Kimber as new and reported him...he was gone a few hours later... Saturday I reported a Freedom Arms 97 that was for sale over on GunsInternational....he is now gone...
Hope this keeps up...
