Seller sends me the shipping via email with this enclosed. I asked him to send the invoice thru Gunbroker.. His reply...We sent the invoice via email .We do not participate in the "GB Checkout" option.

Personally I would not have bought from any seller that only uses all caps in the description...
YEA THAT IS AGGREVATING WHEN THEY DO THAT ITS ALSO HARD TO READ NO ONE USES PUNCTUATION I MEAN COMN MAN :)
Rating is A+1610. I don't think I would be too worried.
My opinion would be that you send him a USPS Money Order and he will send you the ammo.

Looking at the description the seller is requiring buyer to deal with any lost shipment issues if I read correctly in the other post it requires the shipper to initiate if that is so I wouldn't bid. Since you already won I suggest sending a Money Order :)
" PLEASE DO NOT ASK FOR THE REMAINING FRAME OF RECEIVER SECTION AS BOTH SECTIONS WOULD CONSTITUTE A FIREARM "
That's my favorite part from his description of the ammo. I wanna see someone make a "firearm" out of that ammo by adding the "frame." 😏
My question is why is he afraid to do the checkout like everyone else does? Or is he not wanting the sale legit thru GB
Many sellers choose not to use GB checkout because of the extra fees.
If he pays the auction fee, how is it not legit? I've made several purchases lately, and none of them used the checkout per se. All were email communication.
I don't know why you would think he is afraid of anything. The GB checkout system has not been around all that long, not everyone uses it, and he pays the auction fees either way. Unless he is obviously doing something wrong, why would you object?

LOL
Damn! Everything is a conspiracy! Don
This nugget is good also.
Although I think he estimated a little low.
WE HAVE HAD ENOUGH OF THE 1% IDIOTS OUT THERE AND WE CAN'T BABYSIT ANYMORE!!!! SO PLEASE DON'T BE ONE OF THOSE!!!
IMO Since you bid and won send the MO. Myself, I wouldn't bid on an auction that had that much BS and attitude written into it.
You got rooked.

The last thing I want is some jack wagon assuming I cannot follow instructions from the get go and preaching to me or putting me down.
Picked the phone up and called. Money sent
Aside from the use of caps in his rambling description the thing that scares me is the "actual cost of shipping". I make sure I KNOW what shipping will be to my zip code before bidding. I hope you get your ammo and shipping is reasonable.
Yes shipping was reasonable
With todays prices you did good!
those Black Talons will be sold with the others I have to bring stupid money .
