OK, for those wanting to buy firearms products using Guncoin - here is your chance - https://www.gunbroker.com/item/739790572.

Gunbroker.com is starting to allow ads that accept crypto currency.  TMK, this is the first Gunbroker listing for GUN.  We wish him luck with the sale!



Hi everyone, I am the person who listed the items on GunBroker for GunCoin.  One of my winning bidders alerted me to this forum.  I think this winning bidder must be a member here as well. 

I just wanted to thank you all for your support, and for the work you all are doing keeping this crypto alive.  I believe that in years to come there will be a high demand for this option;  providing that anonymity from prying financial organizations remains in place.

I have a fun story for you all  Cool

I am having some technical difficulty with one of my other bidders.  A bidder by the name of 'mtbird' (so you can block him from bidding on your stuff) won several items and is now refusing to pay with crypto.  He/she knew very well what the ad said, but he/she is trying to convince GunBroker to force me to accept USD.  I have great news, GunBroker is siding with me! 

This is the first message the buyer sent me after he/she won my items:
"Checked with Gunbroker and only US backed money, securities and money orders is legal tender. Where do I send the US Postal money order?"

I contacted GunBroker Customer Service, and they replied: 
"The buyer has not contacted us and we would have told them you could accept any payment method you wish as long as you stated it in the listing."


I am in communication with GunBroker now to suggest a preventative measure.  I asked them if they would add "Cryptocurrency" to their official payment options.  As it stands, they offer Money order, Personal check, Credit/Debit card, PayPal, Escrow, etc.  I would like to see an option that says "GunCoin".

I also wanted to point out that GunBroker sells a LOT more than just firearms.  You can list knives, camping equipment, collectible militaria, MREs, and almost anything remotely related to hunting, fishing, or the outdoors.  You guys are supporting me, I will support you.  Feel free to use my listings as a model, you may copy my wording, edit, and borrow my GunCoin picture.  I will be happy to post a tutorial on here about how to set up a GunBroker account, and how to avoid some of the newbee mistakes that a lot of folks make.  I am not doing all this for money, I'm just trying to promote GUN through the use of GUN.

To find my auctions, just search "GunCoin"

FYI, I am listing a Gen4 Glock model 23, .40 caliber handgun on GunBroker this weekend. This may be the first documented sale and FFL transfer on the blockchain.  Tell your friends Smiley

First of all, I really like your ID/Handle - you will go far with that in the forum with that attitude.  We sincerely appreciate your efforts.  This is an ideal example how the community can support our coin at virtually no expense out of their pocket and get us a lot of visibility at the same time.  I would also suggest that you join our Telegram channel (link on upper right corner of the website.

At this point, Guncoin is a VERY solid and secure coin and can be used for sales like this anytime and yes - TODAY, not tomorrow.  We will be getting started on mobile and web wallets soon that will make it even easier.  Please note than any lengthy write-ups or tutorials that you come up with, can be put in a YouTube video or in our users guide, etc. I know of a few others similar things that are in work.  

Bottom line here is that the more community activity we get like this, the faster GUN moves forward and becomes more visible.  Once again, thanks for your patience and support.
