Thank you for your inquiry concerning consigning your gun(s) with us. We are always interested in having them. Our consignment program provides you with a way of selling your gun, of offering your gun to a national audience. For your part, you ship the gun to us, preferably by UPS or Federal Express. Be sure to insure it against loss or damage. When we receive the gun, we will examine it, determine the market value, and together on the phone, establish a selling price. We need to have the gun for a minimum of 90 days, since it takes as much as eight weeks to add a gun to our advertising; however, the gun will be listed on our website immediately.
We generally list the gun slightly higher than the expected final selling price to allow for some negotiation, or trades. Your net will be 85% of the final selling price. We will also give you our best estimate of the time required to sell it. In some cases where guns are becoming obsolete for a specific sport or have some other unusual nature, they may require a longer period of time to sell. In any event, this will be discussed with you when we receive your gun. When you send your gun in, please be sure to include your name, address, and daytime and home phone numbers, with a short note indicating any special circumstances or discussions we might have had with you on the phone. And, please be sure that if the gun is cased with a combination lock or key, that this number and/or key is left on the outside of the case, so it may be opened when received.
Again, many thanks, and we look forward to working with you to sell your gun.
