I admit to being a noob at gun shopping, whether the source is a local LGS or Gunbroker. While searching for both low end and high end guns and gun parts, I found these tidbits of feedback.

This sale was a collector level firearm. The listing stated used "dealer display". The seller was asked to estimate wear, stating little if any, false. Don't buy a Ferrari from a used car dealer.
They took the money and never sent the product. I have emailed the seller multiple times and no response.
Seller needs to know state laws instead of making up their own! LAZY
Won the auction, mailed the check, check cleared. Then I was told that there had been a mix up, the firearm that I'd won was no longer available, and that I'd be getting a refund. Not acceptable!
I have to be honest, working with this company has been the worst customer service I have seen in any field in at least 10 years. No one knows what is going on nor do they respond to calls or emails.
The rifle was in good condition upon arrival, however the bag with the instructions, magazine, and maintenance parts was either chewed up or smashed. The magazine is slightly damaged.
The sell was a bait and switch. This receiver does not have a forward assist. 8 days after I called them to fix the problem. Said they would refund. Will not purchase from them again.
The ammo I just received is 20 gauge..... I purchased 12 gauge didn't I!?!?!?!
Total FCKING $$HOLES won't answer calls and package still has not shipped! WTF?
Purchased for a Christmas present wrong rifle was shipped and arrived in two pieces.do to there screw up out a Christmas present for child asked to cancel purchase charged me 30$ restock fee not happy
Although the picture shows the older clear magazines and lists these as clear, they are not clear. These magazines are the newer "frosted" variety. Very disappointed.
Shipping was quick and great. Packaging was really poor and there was rounds sticking out of the box so not sure if some fell out during transit since some fell out on my table when I opened.
Title states Browning Hi Power magazines but they aren’t made by Browning. Classic click bait seller!
Damaged barrel bent at muzzle breach is beaten damaged will have to grind breach to fit ammo and straighten out bent muzzle


Well, gun experts, what is a frosted magazine, and who buys a gun for a child for Xmas?

A most interesting example of the unexpected was a pistol that I ordered on Gunbroker that a local LGS decided to show off in his display case.  This is a htf pistol that I searched high and low for, and was paid in full before it was shipped to HI. Now it's got fingerprints from other rubber neck gun fans. Did the store expect me to never return to claim da gun?
