lets say for example you just got the ammo yesterday. the guy had a lot of boxes ready to go out and screwed up packaging yours. maybe he was sick or out of town on business yesterday or whatever and hasnt been able to respond. and maybe just maybe he'll send you the proper ammo and let you keep the wrong stuff by way of apology. in that case, i would say you're jumping the gun.
now, if you got the ammo a week ago and have sent him a dozen messages and not heard a word back, that changes things. he could still be out of town, in the hospital etc; but you'd think he's be able to fire off a quick "im sorry. i effed up. i'll make it right next week after xxxxx".
since you didnt specify the timeline that this has taken place over, i cant really speak to whether this is a justified rant yet.

And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
Well, while here I am, IN BEFORE THE LOCK, what I really need are links to that popcorn munch critter ... and I don't have it!!!
Darn, drat and stuff!
IBTL ya'll ...
Which one do you want ?
I like pizza myself ...
has the question of whether this auction was completed on or off the books been answered yet, because if it was completed off the books then you two both took money out of captfuns pocket and that makes you a thief too...
if the auction wasnt completed through gb, they didnt get their fees. if they didnt get their fees, then you used their service without due compensations.
yep! IBTL!

in this case, i doubt you'll find much of a resolution as its clearly stated in the rules that off the books deals cant be controlled by gb. tough cookies. maybe you'll be a better member of the community next time.
This is my, NOT so humble opinion.
Cavier Empty.
Beer too!
to my eyes, a buyer that participates in an off the books deal is at least partially to blame for it happening. the brunt of the responsibility remains with the seller because you are right in that it is the seller who has to pay the duty to GB; but the buyer that completes a transaction outside of gb has to own their piece of the pie.

How 'bout you rant to yourself?!! [}:)]
Noah, if you made this purchase outside of GB, which I firmly believe you did, you've got a set of brass balls, to come here and rant.
This is my, NOT so humble opinion.
every transaction i did , from email's- started with!! RE: question regarding gunbroker.com item #XXX & so forth is still on the books[8] as far as i'm concernedquote:Originally posted by Oso2142

To be eligible for Buyer's Protection coverage you must be the winning bidder of an item as defined by our User Agreement. 'Side Deals' in which you were not the winning bidder, items bought or sold through the 'Want Ads', and any other transaction in which you were not the winning bidder of an auction here are not eligible for Buyer's Protection. Damage sustained in shipment is not covered by the Buyer's Protection; it is the seller's responsibility to insure the item against damage in shipping.
I personally don't care who initated the side deal, If you didn't actually win an auction and gunbroker doesn't get it's money, I would not be on the forums ranting about it.
Do you have it?

I see nothing wrong with what Noah did. He wasn't the one to contact the seller to buy off auction. The seller contacted him. It's the sellers responsibility to make good with GB since he was the one who initiated the dealing.

Definitely a NO-NO!!! You completed the auction outside of GB..........Caveat Emptor. If the seller is a stand up guy, he'll make it right, if not, your SOL. It happens. It could be worse, atleast its still .357 ammo.
All your emails have nothing to do with winning an auction. In an earlier post you said the seller closed the auction and sold the Item to you. Side deals are a NO NO and I would not be on GD ranting about it.
