We're sick and tired of hearing about fraud on the internet. There are too many people out there who want to take advantage of you and too many gun sites that are wide-open begging for scam artists to work their evil deeds. Why? No fraud controls and no accountability, followed by site owners who think protecting their userbase as much as possible is a waste of their time and money. Did you hear the one about the guy who sold the same $10,000 gun to 15 different dealers and customers? Thank goodness for a vigilant police officer in Ohio who shut this guy down finally. We were one of the victims ourself in that incident.

GunsLive.com is different. We have designed this site to prevent fraud every step of the way. We know the absolute best way to ensure the longevity of a site is to make sure BOTH buyers and sellers are doing the right thing. We're not here to look over anyone's shoulder or tell you how to run your business. We are here to make sure nobody gets burned.

To buy or sell on this site you must:

Be over 18 years of age

Have a valid email address

Have a valid phone number inside the USA

Have a valid address inside the USA

Why do we require all that? Buyers and sellers BOTH deserve to be able to contact each other at the end of an auction to finish a deal. Buyers and sellers BOTH deserve to have a level of assurance that the guy on the other end of the deal isn't a scam artist in Malaysia running on a free throw away email account.

For you paranoid types out there, please rest assured there are more fraud controls built into this system than meet the eye. If you register for the site you will see a few of them. There are many more you don't see. Futher we ABSOLUTELY DO NOT SHARE ANY INFORMATION WITH ANYONE FOR ANY REASON....PERIOD. Your data is absolutely confidential and we DO NOT store any credit card information for any reason, period. Don't want to use a credit card on this system? No problem. You can pay your auction fees via PayPal.

Scammers beware. If you have it in your mind that you want to try practicing your dark arts here, be forewarned, you will be making the biggest mistake of your life.

We hope this information has been helpful and useful
