doublegunshop.com - home Forums General Discussion DoubleGun BBS @ doublegunshop.com Why 3 day inspections are important

phunter: quite frankly, i dont expect you to do anything, except to be fair and honest in your posts here.

I have not yet had a gun returned to me by a buyer for any reason. I allow a traditional 3 day return policy, but have no worries of it a couple reasons. There is never any question about what I sell. Plenty of photos and very accurate descriptions leave my buyers very happy with what they buy as there are no surprises. That combined with not selling junk leaves little worry about having to accept a return.

As for how I do business. I am a professional that makes my living by maintaining a good reputation with my customers.
I can only comment on your business practices as far as saying that you are a self called "hobby" gun dealer. And being a hobby would imply that you are in it only for your own self enjoyment. And that the way you conduct yourself in internet communities (that you are currently on and ones you have been thrown off of) is enough of a reason in itself for people to not want to do business with you.

dudley: that sounds great! it also sounds like you have not had the misfortune of encountering some of the less than desireable internet buyers and sellers that i have had to contend with...continued good luck to you...

oh, and i will ask again...do you have any public feedback to show us? so we really know that what you are claiming is true? like do you sell on gunbroker, gunsamerica, gunauction, gunsinternational? or elsewhere on the the net, where one can establish a public track record? and if not, why not?

and dudley, you may assume and claim what you may, but my public buying and selling track record on the net is excellent. i am happy. my consignment customers are happy. and my buying customers are happy. anything beyond that is of little interest to me.

Well said,Ed Good is infamous for deceptive pictures(action left partially open to make lever show less wear for instance),a "it works for me" return policy and is no doubt the same condescending prick to customers that he is here and on the forums he has been tossed off !
His days in the gun biz are numbered,thankfully ! The number of new buyers that have no knowledge of tarted up guns has dwindled to a trickle and his poor reputation takes care of the rest.

dave k: if you and others take a look at my hundreds of positive seller feedbacks on gunbroker, you will notice that many of my customers also have substantial positive feedbacks as well. many of us have been doing business together for a long time...so does that mean we are all wrong and that only you and those like you are somehow right? ah don tink so!

the great thing about a public feedback system, such as what is available on gunbroker, is that is tells the closest thing we have to the truth. the good, the bad and the ugly...

and just to make the point again, my public feedback record on gunbroker is 99% positive.

and what is your public feedback record? anywhere?

Ed, my "feedback" is 100% AND I have never been tossed off a message forum,unlike YOU !

You deal in tarted up POS guns,use deceptive adds and pictures and have made a business-kitchen table FFL without ANY business hrs to inspect guns that depends on unknowing buyers.Thankfully,once again, your chickens have come home to roost and your "business" is failing just like your ability to deceive others.

dave k: thats just wonderful that your feedback is 100%! congratuations...but...could you be a bit more specific? like when, where and how much of this 100% positive feedback do you really have? or are we all just supposed to accept your claim as unquestionable truth without the need for verification?...you know, like much of the other nonsense you post here?

and, as my verifiable gunbroker feedback indicates, my gun dealing chickens have been coming home to roost for many, many years now ...and they are mostly happy hens who lay golden eggs...even the roosters are happy.

i grow weary of this...personal attacks and slanderous comments without foundation, by these unknowns dudley and k...what are their motives? and i wonder? who are they really?

could it be jealousy and envy?

anyway, the gunbroker feedback system works for me and for other honest people...but apparently not for them?

I had Mr. Ed contact me on a gun I was selling.
There was to be no deal unless I changed the wording of my GunBroker ad to allow for an
"unconditional, no excuses 3 day inspection period with full return privileges, no questions asked".

So when Ed is a buyer, it's 3 days or no deal.
When Ed is a seller, good luck to you. "Unspecified" inspection and return.

It seems like whenever Ed is addressed
I get the feeling we're talking to the wrong end...
of Mr. Ed.

Ed, you're the worst kind of hypocrite.

well cash: dont know you. dont wana. dont recall any communication with you...dont appreciate your out of the blue attack post here.

as for dealers who offer no return policy, i request that they at least guarantee what they sell to be as advertised, as i do...no more no less.

by the way, what is your return policy and where on the net do you sell and under what name? and what was the item you were selling that i had expressed interest in?

and if you do not respond, well, that is to be expected...i guess?
