The things I hate so far as a SELLER on GB:
1. no customer service telephone number
2. no chat support even
3. only email communications which are VERY SLOW
I'm having trouble with a flaky BUYER right now and I can't seem to get the issue resolved in a hurry like I want. The buyer has shorted me on payment. Payment received did not include sales tax. I'm now out my money for the listing/compliance/commission fees. GB bills you for their cut Final Value Fee on your gun sale even before the transaction has been completed. It would be nice if GB operated like ebay and amazon.com handling all the money matters on their end. I have to go through their long rigamarow for a refund in the cases of flaky buyers/bidders. GB seems very efficient and fast for billing customers. They suck at providng help when needed. They just want to grab your money, it seems.
I have had very good luck selling with Armslist in early 2021 and earlier, but I have been paying $6.99/month for the past 5 months to list two guns that did not move an inch.
GB seems like a real hassle for gun selling online.
What the gun trade needs is an online marketplace that operates much like ebay or amazon.com. That PayPal shies away from firearms transactions is yet another thorn in my side.
