Anyone else waiting for the dust to settle before listing?

With the issues discussed and noted here about NPB'ers, sales tax issues and the poor overloaded support staff I have decided to wait a while before listing several items in an effort to clean out the gun safes a bit.
I will wait until things get a bit more polished and look for less turmoil before listing. I may lose a few bucks from the panic buyers but hope to gain peace of mind with taxes and PAYING buyers working smoothly.

I handed everything over to Locust Fork and let her deal with it. I believe that only one of the guns I had her sell for me ended up having to be relisted. This was much better average than I was having on my own!
I plan to list some of my M1s, but not right now.
I was going to list some items and decided against it.
We haven't had many NPB, its a rare thing when you do the average. In the past 60 days we have had to file 15 NPB reports, one bought something he didn't realize he couldn't have in the state he lives and most of the others are ammo buyers that were most likely in a frenzy and didn't realize how much shipping actually would be.
In the past 60 days we have had 655 auctions. That is not a bad average......15 out of 655.
I think ammo is going to spike again with the import ban, but I'm not good at predicting things like this.
Sold everything I wanted gone, might buy something
I don't sell..............only buy.
Sounds like more sellers then buyers on here lately perhaps but as noted and I am impressed LF seems to move em on out!
What is this “selling” gun stuff you speak of?
I have 3 or 4 items I am pretty close to shipping to LF to be sold.
The only thing slowing me down is the shipping cost to her. So they sit in my safe, but lately I have been a bit annoyed they are taking up space.
I am not. Hope this helps.
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
Selling? I am a keeper😀
bpost, sounds like a good plan to me.-----------------------Ray
A long while ago, I looked up how much it would cost to ship a bevy of firearms to Remlap Alabama, from SW Iowa.
Ended up driving there, and handing them to her personally. A lot cheaper, and got to meet Kasey and Larry. Wonderful people.
Well look at that- Remlap, Al is about an hour from Talledega. I will be there for USPSA Nationals in October. I guess I will try and meet up w/her on that Thursday, my walkthrough day.
