That is why when you use it be DISCREET.

If you must put something in the message box use a code word that both the seller and buyer agree on.

The ironic part is, you can buy just about anything gun related on egay, with a few exceptions, (no mags above 10rds, no brass anymore, etc.), and yet they will MAKE you use GayPal to pay for it.
Same stuff sells on GB, and I'm betting they won't process it.
That's screwed up.
A poor business model, and I'd bet it would change, if a legitimate competitor came along.

I typically buy and sell things using discreet PayPal. Have like 60+ transactions with 0 problems.

Really considering just using my company's credit card machine and running shit through that. Payment's are my only other issue. People dislike personal checks understandably so. Majority of sellers dislike bank checks / certified checks or don't understand them. So its stupid USPS money orders. Which is a pain in the dick.

There really needs to be a widely accepted better alternative.

Paypal for non-gun stuff on ebay or buying and selling car stuff.  I've always used USPS money orders for firearms. Couple of days in the mail hasn't killed me yet and it's private.

Not to drive this thread off the cliff but this is EXACTLY the kind of problem that Bitcoin and the service Coinbase were designed to solve.  The trick is getting people to realize that the round trip from CASH to BITCOINS and back to CASH is pretty damn simple.  It's the exact same number of steps and level of complexity as using PayPal.  Companies are slowly starting to figure this out.  Dell, Expedia, and Overstock are using Coinbase now to accept payments.  It's not some fly by night geek hobby thing anymore.

Problem solved.  No new website required.

This should become our preferred method. Fuck paypal.

Just open up a coinbase account and start buying some or acquire them through other means.

Then you really have no idea what you are talking about.  The round trip from cash to bitcoins to cash takes a matter of minutes using Coinbase.

Bitcoins are more secure for a seller than credit cards, checks, and money orders by far.  It's not even a contest.  If you are having trouble seeing this, then spend just a few minutes with Bitcoin and then come back to me.  Buy five bucks worth on Coinbase, send them to a paper wallet, import them back into Coinbase, and then sell them.  That will pretty much answer any questions you have about the legitimacy of Bitcoin as an alternative to PayPal.

Halfway down the page on the right.


Comcerning the reason why they refuse to be a knowing part of firearms transactions, I have always believed that they are just liability lawsuit adverse, not wanting to be attacked for being part of the loop that some nutjob mass murderer uses to purchase the weapons he uses in a crime.

Perhaps it is there insurance company's policies that preclude it, maybe I'm wrong, I don't know, but I have never had a problem with them.

Three rules though.

1. Never refer to any firearm related item during transaction.

2. Have a seperate account in a seperate bank just for Paypal.

3. Never leave balance in the account, put only enough money into it to make a purchase and withdraw all transferred funds as soon as possible.

I've probably had around 1000 successful discreet Paypal transactions over the past couple years. It only takes one to get you blacklisted. Lots of people have put the item number in, even when asked not to, but. Paypal obviously wasn't searching like they are now.

The feds are documented trying to restrict access to the "financial system" to undesired industry.  This fits right in.

Paypal has apparently started to Google numbers written in the description. If you Google a Gunbroker item number, Gunbroker will pop up almost immediately.

Oh, and when the seller says if you must use Paypal, "I'll send you an invoice", and "Paypal is anti-gun, so the description has to be completely blank", don't go ahead and write the item number in the description anyways.

Sellers aren't retarded, it's not hard to cross reference that Billy McGee bought something for $152.95 on GB and one Mr. Billy McGee sent $152.95 through Paypal.

Now I get to wait 180 days for Paypal to release my money, luckily I only had $179 in the account at the moment.

Not only has paypal been unfriendly to the gun community since I can remember bu they have held people's money for the same amount of time.

Don't try to excuse them by saying it's the Feds making them do it.

Even without the politics, the fact that they can hold your money is enough reason not to use them.

A postal money order is difficult? Chances are if you buy a gun you need to send a receiving FFL, put a money order in the same envelope.

Never conduct a firearms, firearms accessory, or ammunition purchase using any aspect of PayPal services.

The reason is doing so is a direct violation of PayPal's Acceptable Use Policy, dated Oct 24, 2011, which states in part:

Prohibited Activities
You may not use the PayPal service for activities that…
(2) relate to transactions involving....
(i)  ammunition, firearms, or certain firearm parts or accessories,
(j)  certain weapons or knives regulated under applicable law.....

(see https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=ua/AcceptableUse_print).
View Quote


If you violate the Acceptable Use Policy by engaging in Prohibited Activities and are discovered, the PayPal Purchaser User Agreement states:

10. Your Liability - Actions We May Take.

10.3 Actions by PayPal - Restricted Activities.


(g) If you violate the PayPal Acceptable Use Policy, then in addition to the above actions you will be liable to PayPal for the amount of PayPal's damages caused by your violation of the Acceptable Use Policy. You acknowledge and agree that $2,500.00 USD per violation of the Acceptable Use Policy is presently a reasonable minimum estimate of PayPal's actual damages considering all currently existing circumstances, including the relationship of the sum to the range of harm to PayPal that reasonably could be anticipated because, due to the nature of the violations of the Acceptable Use Policy, actual damages would be impractical or extremely difficult to calculate. PayPal may deduct such damages directly from any existing Balance in the offending Account or any other Account you control.
(see https://cms.paypal.com/us/cgi-bin/marketingweb?cmd=_render-content&content_ID=ua/UserAgreement_full#9.%20Restricted%20Activities.)
View Quote


Therefore, by using PayPal to conduct a firearms, firearms accessory, or ammunition purchase you are taking a $2,500 gamble that they will not find you out and decide to invoke this clause of the agreement you entered into freely when opening a PayPal account.

Note it is unilateral and gives them permission to take that minimum of $2500 from … any other Account you control. like your linked bank account or credit card.

Bitcoin does not remove the FFL requirement. I know, you can legally email an FFL too, but have never bought from a seller who accepted it that way, they still wanted a hard copy mailed. Envelope, money order,FFL, stamp. Anyone who can change their own oil can do it in a reasonable amount of time.

I don't understand those who wont accept emailed FFLs.  EZ Check will confirm legitimacy and the address.

I am trying Google Wallet out, hope more people get on board. I even got a Google Wallet MasterCard debit card for free so I can access money at ATMs or anywhere MasterCard is accepted.

No fees unless you fund with a CC.

The amount of gun people willing to support an anti-gun company always amazed me.


And yet, they people that boycott paypal pay taxes to a anti gun Gov't, buy food from companies that are anti-gun, buy cars from anti-gun companies, etc... I could go on..... That ignores other moral conflicts like supporting gay marriage, paying for abortions, etc.

You can't see how boycotting a private company's service due to their beliefs and rules is identical to tax evasion, which the government enforces through threat of violence?

Actually, I had used some form of Google credit card processing for a few hours when my site was first published, then Google shut it down immediately after the first sale. It was several years ago, I don't recall all the details.

Google Wallet isn't anti-gun though?

Do not put the item number in the description.

Paypal has apparently started to Google numbers written in the description. If you Google a Gunbroker item number, Gunbroker will pop up almost immediately.

Oh, and when the seller says if you must use Paypal, "I'll send you an invoice", and "Paypal is anti-gun, so the description has to be completely blank", don't go ahead and write the item number in the description anyways.

Sellers aren't retarded, it's not hard to cross reference that Billy McGee bought something for $152.95 on GB and one Mr. Billy McGee sent $152.95 through Paypal.

Now I get to wait 180 days for Paypal to release my money, luckily I only had $179 in the account at the moment.

Fuck Paypal, I don't get why lots of people still insist upon using them to pay for Gun stuff.

Tcrpe you remind me of somebody else that used to say that. Can't quite put my finger on it.

The bulk of the people who support BitCoin are pozzed out reddit shitlibs. I'd rather support PayPal given the choice.
