kwiky Posted May 7, 2006 Report Share Posted May 7, 2006 i have agreed a deal on a .22 fenman from gaffa9977 but i have never purchased a gun online and he has never sold one, we live miles apart im from "geordie land" and he's from wales so we cant meet up,could someone please tell me the way it works , do i sent payment then he sends the gun or does he send the gun first or what, also is it ok to post guns and does the packaging have to say that its a gun, roughly how much does this cost and how lojng does it take? i wouldnt normally buy online cos its too much hassle but this gun is a real peach , just what ive benn looking for and i wouldnt care if it was coming from the moon i'd still buy it so any help or advice would be really helpful thanks in anticipation.........kwiky Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Geordie Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 Way it works is mainly TRUST You send your money via Cheque or Paypal etc and when HE receives the money then he send YOU the gun. Postage is recomended to be NEXT DAY and INSURED for obvious reasons. LG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COLINSRI Posted May 8, 2006 Report Share Posted May 8, 2006 If you can't meet face to face (as you can't), then he can post it recorded. I've bought a two guns off here as well as a coate, dvd's, hunting gear etc. and all have been posted to me. As long as he packages it properly (sure he will), and sends it inured/recorded.... there won't be a problem. Payment: in general you have to pay before he sends it off. As LG says, it is down to trust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sutty Posted May 9, 2006 Report Share Posted May 9, 2006 Kwiky, Yep ,its down to the No of posts. Anyway back to the Q. Transactions are done on trust, you send the money/cheque/PO, and when it arrives and clears, they parcel up the rifle and send it off to you. No problems posting either, if its well packaged and insured. the cost via Royal mail is approx £17 , next day +insurance. (give or take a quid or two either way) hope this helps.
