I have a bunch of used AR parts to sell.  Which is easier to get rid of them?  Gunbroker or EE.  I currently have a gunbroker account already set up.

I always have good luck with the EE.

I never have tried Gunbroker –– but I've never needed to because the EE is so great.



Edit: I've not used it since the 'new' EE has become available.  Can't say if it's better or worse than the 'old' EE.

EE first, then GB if anything doesn't sell.

I like the EE much better then Gunbroker.

EE is free and awesome

price it correctly and you can move shit same day.

That being said if you act like your worn out A2 buttstock is made from gold you will likely sit on the stuff for a while.

use the old EE. works a lot better, more traffic too.

Gunbroker you will get top dollar and the EE you will get nothing but low ball offers...

You are probably one of the guys asking $1500 for an M4gery with a foregrip...

EE for sure. I tend to not buy from people with less than 300 post/3 months with ARFcom. Just my personal preference..

Also check the feedback section for the buyers name for their positive status...

EE is a little better for the seller.  You get the final word over who you are going to sale it to and the sale price.  Gunbroker, you are stuck with the bidder.



I have used both with no major issues.

AR parts will sell better on the EE.

I looked at my spreadsheet.

I have 38 items to sell, if not more that I haven't labeled yet.  All my stuff is parted out, no complete uppers or anything.

I've used the EE for two transactions. I bought an M14 and a pile of .308 ammo.

Gunbroker seems like it's full of people that are trying to get twice what a product is worth. I saw a guy on there with a DPMS M4gery trying to sell the damn thing for LITERALLY $1400. I can build a *FAR* better rifle than that one, which had no other attachments, no optics, nothing, for less than half that. If I really go all out and spend $1400 I'll have an awesome rifle. Not rediculously awesome like an LWRC or Larue, but pretty damn good.

Go with the EE.

Get both.  Poll needed that option.



I've had good luck with small items on the EE but I tried to sell a few guns (my mistake, won't do it again...) and usually it is tire kickers, those who say they'll take it both verbally or via email, IM, the EE and then back out.  Regarding things I've bought off the EE the transactions have been good for the most part.  One small complaint but nothing that needs posted.  



Gunbroker has always been good to me.

If your stuff is priced well, it will sell very quickly and for free on the EE here. Use the old one, though.

I'd use the EE for the parts.

I am interested in this post because I have 2 SKS', a Marlin .22mag, and a 1911 I want to sell.

All this shit going on on the border makes me too leery of F2F right now.

EE no doubt - I've sold a ton of shit there...not everyone leaves feedback though. Otherwise, my positive feedback would be more than quadruple what it is. I don't solicit for feedback though - maybe, I should start?

my $0.02
