How does an Offers Only listing/ad work?
A. An Offers Only ad allows you post an ad for sale where you are unsure of the price, or where there are potentially special buyers out there who will pay a premium for your gun, yet you don’t want to be forced to sell it to a “highest bidder” as you would in an auction. You will get “offers” on your ad, which you choose to accept or reject. You do NOT have to accept any offers and you accept as many offers as you wish, BUT you must sell to the highest of the offers when the listing comes to a close (similar to an auction). Advantages: * You do not have to sell, as you would in an auction, unless you accepted an offer. * You can potentially get top dollar. * Solid, serious, cash buyers will not feel alienated by a high and “wishful” asking price. * You can ignore offers below a threshold you set (similar to a reserve). * You get to communicate with the potential buyer first, and sell to someone who’s character you prefer – a good feeling to have when dealing with firearms.
