GunBroker new check out system

I just had my first purchase with GB using the new check out system. I thought it worked out pretty slick until I found the dealer, not many left, did not charge any additional fees for using a credit card. Apparently if the dealer does not have a fee the system will not work. I also noticed we do not receive the information on the seller like we used to. If I had not been sent a message from the seller I would have thought the sale had been completed.
I think it will be a good system when they get the bugs worked out but I still like the idea of having the information for the seller in the event we have a problem.

    Thank you that works just fine. But they still have a problem if you use the check out box when you get a notice you have won a item.

    That is not accurate... The system works just fine with or without the a cash discount. In fact up until about a month ago the only sellers that could use the cash discount were the ones using PAI as their gateway.

    All I can do is tell you what my experience was. I received a notice I had won the auction and to proceed to check out. I did so, filed out the information and sent it in. That was the last I heard to this day. I just by chance contacted the seller and he advised me he did not use the check out system and it would not go through and it did not. I completed the sale with the seller.
    I did contact GB but have not heard anything as of this date.
    This was the first time I had used the check out system

    You used the "order processing system" Did you enter your credit card number when going through checkout??? Nope.

    Unless the item has a little yellow icon with a green dollar sign in it and says immediate checkout then you cannot "checkout" with that seller. Look at Kasey's items. All have the symbol and you can pay at the end of the auction...

    Ask the seller why he isnt using that, or just let us know the item # and I will have my sales guy find out why.
