Granted, as in any on-line purchase, one has to be smart and carefully screen the seller, consider the most prudent method of payment, and ensure that the article in question is "as described." I've found the GB feedback system to be helpful. Likewise, deal with reputable, repeat sellers who you've communicated with on the phone.

I am glad it works for you.

But if any one should ever wish to see all correspondence related to my experience, I will gladly provide it.

I repeat, stay away from Gunbroker.com

I had the same experience from a private gunbroker seller and with that website several years ago.
Hopefully it's needless to say, but I'll say it any way. I don't have anything to do with that site any more.
I was ticked off for a long time. Still am in fact. Or I wouldn't be ruminating this again LOL.
The seller cashed my money order, closed his email accounts and disconnected his phone numbers.
I wonder how many $285 money orders he got and cashed besides mine?
I filled out all the required paperwork the GB required and got a fax back saying my buyer protection reimbursement check was in the mail.
That was the last time they ever corresponded with me.
They would not answer any other communications.
I never saw the check.
Stay away from Gunbroker.
Lesson learned.
