Ed is a businessman, trying to make a buck- how he does it, as long as he has a satisfied base of customers for the grade level of shotguns he offers for sale- If they don't know better to check, with the wealth of good information and data available on the Internet- Caveat Empetor I should guess. What bothers me is the obfuscation and legalese verbiage in his "return option" clause-- It isn't Bill Jaqua, and he set the standard, IMO, for honest gun dealing years ago- The only two gun dealers I know and would buy from in today's market are Brad Bachelder and Kirby Hoyt- I am sure there are other dealers just as honest as these two gents are, I just have not yet made their acquaintance.

foxie: thanks for the compliment, but I aint really a businessman. if I were I would be selling everything that shoots, which I don't. plus, I would not have a return policy. "all sales are final", would be my response to a request for return of an item.

I deal in antique and collectible firearms as a hobby. plus, I really do enjoy selling and my relationship with my customers, both consigners and buyers.

and it makes my day when I receive praise for my services...

I argue that your actual return policy is "all sales are final". Your return policy on Gunbrokers is vaguely worded and contradicts itself. Here is an example of how you apply your so called "return policy".

Our Friend Ed Did it Again

Why would ed have a return policy and not accept returns? It gives the prospect the misconception that he will be able to return the gun if there are any problems and makes him more likely to buy. But then when the gun shows up loose and off face ed says "nope, not a gross discrepancy so no return."

ed you just discussed and extolled your return policy on this thread.

Would you consider experimenting with "cyanide" case colors?
Get my drift?

I'll consider being "nice" if you'll consider be less annoying.
Or... are you considering your redundant threads....thought provoking?
