WANTED Opinion On a Classified Ad

[BigSkyRambler]

The forum rules state only one gun per ad. But what if you are offering a "Brace" of identical pistols? In this case, would a Brace count as one item? I know. It's early and I am only halfway through my first cup of coffee.

I would think a brace would count as one, just my humble opinion. Get your second cup of coffee lol .

I don't think they are really that strict about it. I'd list a price with them together or separate in the same ad.

 

[ezekiel]

Especially pistols.

 

[VA Hawken]

I think it's more of a case of a single price for the items listed.

I've got a pair of two pistols listed, one price for the set, and I've got listings for 12 magazines as a set for one price as well. I've seen other multiple item listings as well, but for a single price for the package.

I'd think of it no different from a box of balls or a half a dozen flints.

If you're selling something with a single price, then it's a single thing despite the number of parts to the sum.

 

[QuinnTheEskimo]

Makes sense to me. A set is a single item.

I’m not a Mod (nor do I play one on TV), but Classified Guideline #6 says: “You may list only one (1) item per ad.” In your case that one item would be “a brace of pistols.” If someone was interested in only one, that should probably be dealt with via PM, and if you sold one, you could edit your ad and price to reflect that it is now for only one pistol. Just my take on the guideline. (Also, I am only on my first cup as well, and many more are needed for full functionality…).

Thanks folks.

A brace of matched pistols should be considered one item.

A brace of matched pistols should be considered one item.

Not so much matched as same make, model and caliber. But still a brace.

Amen

"It's easier to ask forgiveness than to get permission."

LOL! But it is a total b!tch to find that your ad has been deleted…

Multiple guns on a single listing would be fine as long as they were being sold as a single lot. What is not allowed is an ad for a "this" and for a "that" which requires two seperate transactions to complete the sales.
