I've heard the Gunbroker is now charging a buyer a 10% buyers fee.
Is this correct?

Hey All! Lately there has been more and more scammers on the forum board. They register and replies to members requests for guns and/or parts or other things. The reply contains a gmail or hotmail address or similar ”anonymous” email addresses which they want you to reply to. DO NOT ANSWER ANY STRANGE MESSAGES! They often state something like this: ”Hello! Saw your post about purchasing a stock for a Safari. KnuckleheadBob has one. Email him at: [email protected]” If you receive any strange messages: Check the status of whoever message you. If they have no posts and signed up the same day or very recently, stay away. Same goes for other members they might refer to. Check them too and if they are long standing members, PM them and ask if the message is legit. Most likely it’s not. Then use the report function in each message or post so I can kick them out! Beware of anything that might seem fishy! And again, for all of you who registered your personal name as username, please contact me so I can change it to a more anonymous username. You’d be surprised of how much one can find out about a person from just a username on a forum such ad our! All the best! And be safe! Jim

News to me....
A while back.....they had started an additional 1% compliance fee.....for collecting state sales tax, of the buyers state.
Direct from their site:
We charge no recurring fees to be a registered user of the web site. Bidders/buyers are charged a 1% Compliance Fee upon purchase of an item. Buyers purchasing Collector’s Elite Action items will be charged a 10% buyers premium for the item.
The more you spend the more it costs....typical...

"Collector's Elite Auctions" appears to be a separate....and much smaller......auction site.
Perhaps there is some sort of corporate connection.

Yes, they are now unconvicted rapists. There was a Pre Gacia Sako deluxe on their site only about a week ago for $1100.00. I hit the “buy it now” button, went to check out and they were charging me an additional $105.00 for some ridiculous fee, I let the Sako go…

Was that in addition to Montana state sales tax which they are now obligated to collect? Whether they actually submit the sales tax to Montana or simply keep it in their pocket is another issue.

Montana doesn’t have a sales tax…
