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

Looks like I have just found a great reason to try to add another caliber to my collection Smiley
