Watch out for scams
I had 4 responses of which only one appeared to be genuine but didn't follow through. One was a scam in which the responder had stolen someone's identity and gun certificate which I reported to the police. The two others appeared to be scams so I didn't respond. Not the fault of Guntrader I guess but you have to be careful in dealing with responders.

We’re sorry to hear that your listing did not receive any enquiries. While we understand how frustrating that can be, it’s important to clarify that Guntrader provides a platform to advertise listings but does not guarantee enquiries or sales.
The level of interest in a listing can depend on several factors, including pricing, quality of photos, description detail, market demand, and competition from similar listings at the time.
We always recommend reviewing your listing to ensure it is competitively priced, includes clear and high quality images, and provides a detailed, accurate description to help attract potential buyers.
If you would like, our team is happy to offer guidance on how to improve your listing’s visibility and performance.
Thank you again for your feedback.

I’m sorry to hear you’ve had a frustrating experience. I did make a change to the advert regarding the calibre, which may be why it appeared different from what you originally submitted.
I’ve also tried to contact you several times by phone and left messages, as I’m keen to help resolve any issues and make sure everything is correct for you.
Please feel free to get back to me at your convenience so we can sort this out quickly. I’m more than happy to assist and ensure you’re satisfied with the listing.

Not very impressed with Guntrader.
Not very impressed with Guntrader.
The whole quality of the website is going downhill FAST !!!
Firstly putting an advert up is ‘clunky’ and frustrating.
The software edits the advert and categories as it see’s fit and won’t let you edit it afterwards.
It wouldn’t accept ‘firearm’ in the licence requirement box,as well as not allowing me to place a full heading on the title.
Whilst I’m fully aware that the used gun market is through the floor at the moment.
However I was more than disappointed that despite placing two guns on here at significantly less than market value,the only responses I received were from two blatant scammers !!!!

Thank you for your feedback, I’m sorry to hear about your experience.
I’ve checked your adverts and can see they are getting good visibility, with one at 1,282 views and the other at 492. However, I understand how frustrating it is to only receive responses from suspected scammers. Please report these to us so we can take action.
I’d really like to better understand the issues you faced with placing your advert. Could you give us a call so we can talk this through and help resolve things?
