    Default High powered armory in Youngstown Ohio: Gunbroker question about a shady seller need help.

    I would just like to know what rights you have as a buyer if the seller does not cooperate? Like if I won a auction that the seller stated he has plenty of the item in stock but will not ship it out, and wants to give back the money instead. This has been about a month ago and this guy is threatening to leave me bad feedback just because I told him if I did not receive my item I was going to reflect my experience with my feedback. I had a hard time getting payment info and even harder time getting a response out of this guy. I believe he is trying to price gouge me or does not have the item he stated he had. I have also looked into his feedback and am not the only person that is having this issue. Thanks for your help.

    Just get your money back and call it a day. I have walked away from a lot of deals when people start jerking you around. Person keeps moving the date and time around for the transaction, they don't respond to emails, or phone calls. Save the headaches for something more important.

    Sounds to me like he agreed to sell you Y for $X, then the market went nuts and now he could sell Y to anybody else for $XXX. So, he wants out of the deal with you so he can triple his money (or more) with some other schlub. Get your refund and be the schlub that got away.

    Oh, once you have your refund, smoke his ass with bad feedback.

    depending on the money spent, feedback him anyways, and contact gunbroker. If he isn't delivering the goods in a timely fashion and making veiled threats about you not getting either and you have proof, he can blow you. Just run him through the system and let him deal with the fallout of being a douche.

    Contact GB. Seller is obligated to provide the item. However- no none can force him to do anything. The worst you can do is leave poor feedback. He prob doesn't care about that. You might be able to get his account suspended. That might sting the seller a mite.

    Get your money back, Contact GB, Blast him on the feedback. Send all correspondence between the two of you to GB. So they can see he's being a douche! Then let everyone here know who he is, so we do not deal with him!!

    Screw him, keep your money and move on. You need someone to screen any & all deals you do on line. Or stop buying shit on line. ABC always buy Colorado.
    PS: Have you contacted GB yet?

    That is what I would like to do and I told him they would most likely suspend it. I am not in the habit of loaning money online.

    I tried the resolve with seller but cannot file fraud until monday which will officially be 30 days. But from what I understand and maybe I am reading it wrong if I file a fraud claim I lose 100.00 bucks. Is there some other way of contacting GB?
