Search G.B. for used vs DEALER new

Would anyone besides me like to see a requirement to list your gun as new or used? I get tired of scrolling through page after page of store owners with new guns and multiple listings trying to sell for a couple dollars over cost when I'm looking for a used gun at a bargain. Don't tell me to search by make and model cause I don't always know what i'm looking for, but know an interesting used gun when I see it. Just asking, so maybe we can only look for what want. If I want a brand new gun, I'll go to the store. Now I bet I catch H.E. double toothpicks from you dealers. If you would like to see them listed as new or used, please let G.B. know, I did.

    What I've learnt from GB and elsewhere is that most guns (at least on gb and other places) seem to hold their value very well.
    Unless you want a beatup gun you will not find the steal you are looking for.

    They used to have a HOT ITEM catagory that had everything with more then 10 bids. Very good catagory but I see they have eliminated it??

    It's a wonderful idea, however I can see that GB would never implement that search. Know why? Because then 99% of the auctions which are basically retail price dealer listings would never get seen. And there goes their revenue stream.

    I personally would like to see a property that identifies the seller as either an FFL holder or a non-FFL holder like over on GUNZAMERIKA.
