| I have to sell my fairly extensive Smith & Wesson revolver collection probably about 30 + spoke to Chris and they were eager to help appraise sell I think 16% which is fair was wondering if anyone has used their services? |
| I have never consigned through them, however I did sell a bunch of parts, accessories, and militaria to them outright once. I have also bought from them. In all instances they were very responsive and were totally drama free to deal with. While I wish that the offer was a little bit higher, I know that they did a much better job selling the stuff than I would have and I am glad that I accepted it. (I watched the auctions when they put the items that I sold them up and they certainly got way more for the items than I would have!) |

Thanks for the info I dont have the wherewithal to do gun broker or forum sales im getting ready to bring them a few and see how it goes. Unfortunately for me at least i thing gun buying with Trump in the office is lackluster at best . |

Only reservations with them is they have mixed reviews. When they cleared out my buddy's estate they were very up front with what they were going to do for him. It was a flat rate fee, nothing hidden. They also sent guys and a van to pick it up. Held at their facility until the quarterly firearms auction. |
