Member Link Up Looking for GunBroker seller

Jdowney37 said:

Hello, I am trying to locate and contact a seller from GunBroker who had listed a rifle at the end of last year and it doesn’t appear to have spoke. I’m interested in the rifle but cannot contact the seller through GB. The username is, “BradInTexas”. If anyone would know who that it, if you could put me in contact I’d greatly appreciate it.

Thanks,
Josh

I found the old link, hope this helps sir

i see your issue now…hmmmm

maybe you just have to be patient and wait til he posts something else up.

i’ll see if i can dig anything up for you

not sure if you are on that forum, if you aren’t i have an account. i can message him and see if he gets back to me. he hasn’t been on in a minute but he should get an email from a pm.

Hi Josh:

Found the listing too.

Odd thought... if you hit the "Send Seller a Message" button, it gives you a red screen. But does have a Customer Support link. You 'could' try sending a note to customer support saying "I found this listing and I want to buy it. I know I can't contact the seller, but if you were to ask him to relist it... I am a buyer."

You never know... It's a spendy item. They'll make a good commission. And takes no more than someone reaching out and saying to the seller "If you relist, we have a buyer." You have nothing to lose!

Cheers,

Sirhr

Appreciate the response and though. I may try that, but I suspect they don’t allow you to contact sellers after an auction has ended because they don’t want the item sold outside of gunbroker. We’ll see what they say.

Well, you're not asking to buy outside of GB. You are asking their customer service to suggest to the seller tha he relist the rifle so you can buy it on GB.

Seems reasonable!

I give it a 1% chance of success. But what do you have to lose?

The barrel was chambered and installed by Asteroid Precision Rifles in Weatherford, TX.

Copied and pasted this off the gunbroker listing, have you tried asking them for assistance?

great idea too

this reminds me of one of those social media posts where someone found a lost item and it gets shared enough that eventually the owner is found.

we will find Brad and his cool 30 sherman build!

Good luck. Those fuckers can't even keep folks from listing items in non-existent calibers like "243 Remington" and "6.5 CREEDMORE"

Never understood why they don't use a drop-down list like other websites
