New member, still waiting for gun

[kevinqjhps]

Hello all,

Been looking for the right R9 at the right price for quite some time. Well I found one at a dealer in ALASKA! I don't know if it will have to come by air or ship, I don't think you can ship guns through Canada so not sure when it will arrive.

It is a two tone with only one mag, the other probably ended up on G-broker. Actually G-broker is where I found the gun and a extra mag.

Paid a 'reasonably' good price for it so I am happy.

I got extra grips, 200 rounds of Winchester 115 gr JHP, 3 extra recoil springs, and a extra mag. Now I just need SOMETHING to put them together on. God I hate waiting for a firearm.

Just heard from the seller. After 11 DAYS payment still hasn't got to Alaska.

 What might that be about?

What might that be about?

Seler is in Alaska. I am in Indy. I really don't know how long it takes payment to get there BUT I think 11 days are pushing it a bit.

Did you send it first class or priority mail?

Just heard from the seller. After 11 DAYS payment still hasn't got to Alaska. 

I buy a lot of guns on line and I just about always send the money by priority mail.  That way the seller knows it was sent and I know when it gets there.

If the seller knows that I know when it is delivered they ship right away.  By regular mail they blame the Post Office and it takes weeks.

I do it the same way, Bob, and it has always worked without a problem.

Sent first class. I will call bank on Monday and see if the Cashiers Check was cashed. That's the ONLY payment he would accept.

You bought a gun on GB w/o doing your homework. The seller has 2 sales to his name, an A & an F for feedback. The odds of you getting your gun look to me to be slim. But maybe you will luck out.

Actually when I bought it he had NO feedback but has 38 guns listed and has a FFL. Don't think he will chance loosing his FFL over $1K.

If he had no feedback, no FFL, and no other sales I would have walked away from it. It will work out. I just HATE to wait for toys to arrive.

Well the bank said the Cashiers Check has NOT been cashed. I contacted the seller and told him I will give it 2 more weeks, that will be THIRTY DAYS SINCE PAYMENT SENT, then I will get the bank to refund my payment, contact G-broker and advise them the seller can't fill order, and find another piece.

In 10+ years and over 300 deals I have NEVER had one this bad. Oh well. Maybe I was due?

    Well,good luck to you.
     I hope you either get the gun,or get your money back.Maybe,it's just going to take a little more time.

I prefer the gun but we'll see what the next two weeks bring. Once he cashes it I got him. His FFL will be in jeopardy and with one more negative feedback he probably get bared from G-broker. I just HATE to wait!
