Isn't that what Rich Wyatt got into trouble for, taking payment without delivering any product?
Depends on which ffl , they have little different policies mentioned on this thread.
I did a gunsforeveryone transfer around April or may 2020 and they told buyer that they need to pay seller. If background doesn't pass,it is upto the ffl and the buyer to coordinate it. Seller is good to go.
Other ffl has slightly different policies.
However I would like to get compensated for the background fee and the gas money at least, if buyer doesn't pass the background check.
As for purchasing it from the store, it is same as usual. Pay background and wait. Upon pickup,I pay for the firearm.
ETA: as a seller , make sure to get paid before dropping it off to ffl. If that is a problem for buyer or ffl,it is NO GO.

No. It was failure to report income and selling with a license that was not gunsmoke's
Well, that was one of many things. But he also charged full price, then refused a refund if there was an issue with the background check.
What I miss is being able to start the bgc while the gun was being shipped to the shop so when it arrived I'd just have to go in, pick it up and be on my way. My most recent was supposed to be delivered today, 1/22, but of course due to shipping backlog I'm hoping it'll come in on 1/23 so I can go fill out the form and hopefully pick it up before next weekend.

well, that's not a federal crime, nor what he was charged with. frankly, i'm not sure that's a crime at all. However, none of that is relevant to the purpose of this thread--background check times.
I, for one, would not prepay for a firearm. I will pay when it is my hot lil hands

The way we're doing it at Iron Horse Armory is you put a deposit down for the total price of said firearm + tax. "IF" you come back denied, the only thing we keep is the $10.50 for the background check as we have to pay that to the state whether you pass or fail. The deposit is returned to the customer and then we release the firearm back to the shelf for the next customer. I think that's a pretty fair way to go about it. Another thing that helps with is when you come in to pick up the firearm on a later date, you just have to re-sign the 4473 and your out the door.
The character of a man can be judged by how he treats those who can do nothing for him
Regarding Private Party transfers, at Firing Line we do not take possession of the gun until the "buyer" passes the background check. Then both parties come back in, we put the gun in the books, give it a log number, then one of the 2 parties pays the transfer fee, the buyer re-certifies the 4473 and you're out. If there are hi-caps involved in the transfer we tell the 2 parties it is not legal for us to sell or transfer those hi-caps, and to do what they feel with those mags, out from under our roof.
Submitted Thursday at about 10am, got a call when the store opened this morning.
