Price Inquiry Threads Update

Recently, we’ve had a lot of “How Much is My Gun Worth†threads here in the Long Guns Forum.* While this isn’t against the rules per se, selling a firearm outside of the Trading Post is. *The majority of these are usually from Non-Benefactors, and the Admin/Mod’s suspicion is that members are trying to skirt the rule of requiring a member of TGO to be a Benefactor to post “For Sale/Trade†ads in the Classifieds Section; so when looking at certain posts in the Long Guns Forum where a member is asking for a price, sometimes this can turn into a “For Sale†ad (intentional or not…)

*

The truth is, if you are intelligent enough to create an account on TGO, you should know that all you have to do to get an accurate up-to-date price on any firearm, is SEARCH.* Google is very helpful (try their “Shopping†search, it will give you pricing information from several gun websites and I’ve found it fairly accurate).* Not enough? Try GunBroker.com, GunsAmerica.com, or AuctionArms.com; all these sites show what the going rate is for a particular firearm. If you think those auction sites are overpriced, then subtract $100.* The truth is, firearms pricing is all over the board these days.*

*

Going forward, all Price Inquiry threads will be monitored closely, and if they look suspicious, Infractions will be given and the thread will be deleted.* In legitimate Inquiry threads, once the OP’s (Original Poster) question has been answered, the thread will be locked to prevent misuse.

*

We appreciate your cooperation with this matter. Please don’t hesitate to PM me if you have any questions.

*

Thanks!
