Ebay: No more components
« on: August 26, 2007, 03:25:55 AM »
Ebay no longer allows firearm related items such as components, brass, etc.  Can anyone recommend an alternative?

Okay, I'll bite.

Have you checked any of these?

gunbroker.com
gunsamerica.com
craigslist.com
auctionarms.com
some of the hundreds of forums like GBO that offer classified sections for firearms related items
gun shows
garage sales
estate sales
local classifieds

There is still life out there even without Ebay...

Thank you for your informative response, Bill.   Ebay had the advantage of a great format and a huge selection.  I will certainly try   your recommendations.

LGM270,
I've been checking the other auction sites too, but from a seller's perspective. Not many components, and even fewer bids. I've been very disappointed with them so far. Maybe I just need to be a little more patient so the other sites can gain some following. Til then, I've had some luck on GB's classifieds section, but the market doesn't seem quite as wide as eBay was.
