FFL help please

My auction closed a few days ago, the winner sent me the funds but no FFL. When I notified him, he indicated that he forgot the FFL, would I accept a copy via fax, and he indicated that a fax was a legal document.Since I am not an FFL holder, I realize I can ship via Fed-Ex under their guidelines, but only to an FFL Holder whose name is on the license. My questions are (1) Do I NEED a copy with an original signature in red ur ble ink? (2) is a fax copy OK as long as I verify the number and the shipping address and determine that it is a valid license holder? Thanks for your guidance. I have no wish to find my keister in jail. Gus

    No FAX!Original signature On FFL!!! the only reason for the red or blue ink is that it makes it easy to tell that it is an orig. not a copy as the rest of the FFL is a copy. ATF does not require it be red or blue ink.

    Agreed. No faxes allowed. It's too easy to change info (dates, names, addresses, signatures) so the govt. requires the FFL-holder sign each copy in original ink and submit one to each seller. You can hold these on file in case you ever sell the buyer another firearm, of course, if your auction site allows for that.

    Hey Gus, it would be like him taping hundred dollar bills to a sheet of paper and faxing them to you. (OK, so I tried it, it was just once)
