NO Auction Links
This one is pretty much self explanatory
Membership Fee
Initial membership is free. Reinstating your membership after you've been stupid is $10.00 per try. We provide a generally free service. But if we have to put up with an ****, there's real money involved. Talking back to an admin or moderator will likely result in a real money cost. Think before you type!!
BE SMART
DO NOT sell guns to prohibited possessors or underage people, don't ruin it for the rest of us!!!
Allowed items
The Private Party Firearm Sales forum is for firearm sales only. Dealer sales, gun parts, accessories, etc all belong in their respective forums.
Pictures
Pictures are required with each for sale or for trade ad. "I'm posting now and will add pics later" doesn't work. If you don't have the pictures yet then don't post. Any for sale ads without pictures will be deleted. Internet catalog pictures, Google Images, etc are not allowed. Your pictures must be real pictures that you took. We ask this so the firearms condition can be see in the pictures.
Price
Please include a price in the title of your ad. An example of an appropriate format would be "Glock 17 and accessories - $450". If your ad is trade only then please substitute the price with "WTT" (want to trade) BUT TRADE VALUE IS STILL NEEDED IN THE BODY OF THE AD.
Description
Please accurately describe the gun you are selling. Things like condition, how many rounds have been shot through it, age, etc are all good things to include. Also include what extras (ammo, holsters, etc) if any that it will come with.
Location
Please include your location in the description of your ad. City at a bare minimum should be include, but it is even better if you can include what major cross roads you're close to.
Bumping Ads
Bumping an ad / post is defined as replying to your own thread to "bump" it back to the top of the listings. This is permitted every 3 days. Excessive bumps or early bumps will at the very least result in the bump being deleted or could result in the post being deleted.
Sold
When your item is sold, modify the subject to include [SOLD] at the beginning. Do not delete anything in the posting.
Contact information
You are welcome to share whatever contact information you want. We do however suggest that you do not put your cell phone number or email address in your ad for both privacy and security reasons. Our site has an excellent private messaging (PM) system that we encourage everyone to use. When making a deal with someone you will almost certainly have to share your phone number, we just suggest that you send it to them via PM instead of posting it. Also, if you send your contact info to someone it is a good idea to reply to the thread it is in reference to with something like "I sent you a PM" so they know to look for it.
Who can buy, sell, and trade on this page
We do not allow minors, criminals, or any other prohibited possessors to use this site. If you are not able to pass a 4473 (background check) then you are not welcome to use this site. All members who buy, sell, and trade on this page must be Arizona residents.
Ratings & Feedback
We have a system to leave ratings and feedback on both buyers and sellers. It works similar to the feedback system on eBay. When you have a deal with another member please take a minute and leave feedback on that person. This helps others in the community establish if someone is good to deal with or is a problem. Negative feedback gets forwarded to the staff of this site so we can monitor and remove individuals who prove to be a problem.
Flakes
If you commit to a deal or make arrangements with another member you are expected to follow through with it. If something comes up most people are understanding, but don't just leave someone high and dry without any communications. Anyone that is caught not showing up to an agreed deal will be removed from the site.
Post Crapping
If you are not contributing to a post in a constructive manner, you are crapping on a post, if you do, you will suffer the consequences!!
Enforcement
We have these rules to help keep things clean, legal, and safe. If you do not like these rules then you are free to see yourself out and go somewhere else. Administrators and moderators will enforce these rules on as needed basis. It is up to the individual administrator or moderator what action is taken for a violation of rules. We are fair, but we are also firm. Follow the rules and don't be an asshat and you will be fine. We will stop giving warnings, if you don't follow the rules, we won't give you time to fix your mistakes, your thread will be locked and depending on each moderator or admin, you might get banned. So save us the aggravation, READ the rules!!
Old Posts
Guys, be smart, if the post is over a year old, don't dig it up, PM the seller!!! Most likely the gun is already sold!!!
***These rules are subject to change at any time with or without notice. It is your responsibility to occasionally check the rules to ensure that you are up to date on them.
