Special Feature Fees, Features, and Policies

Special features are the extras you can use to pump up your listings so they get more attention.

Bold Font: Makes the font (text) in your item "description" bold so it looks stronger and stands out. The title is not bold, the text for the item description is bold. The text will be seen this way when listed on the summary page (when shown on a page with other ads). And, when someone clicks through to view your listing/ad alone, the text is no longer bold because it is no longer needed, making it easier on the eyes to read.

Featured Listing: Your listing/ad will be moved to the top of the category or subcategory in which it has been placed. It will be at the top along with other featured listings (in listing number order). Keep in mind this means it will be a "featured listing" in the exact category & subcategory you put it in, not the general or top level main category. For example, if you listed a gun in the Guns / Rifles / Browning / Bolt Action / Hunting category/subcategories, that means your gun will appear at the top of the Guns / Rifles / Browning / Bolt Action / Hunting category/subcategories and NOT necessarily at the top of the Gun category, NOT at the top of the Rifles category, NOT at the top of the Browning category. The best part of this special feature (besides coming out on top) is that if someone sorts the listings in any way (price, time, etc.) your item will still be at the top with all other Featured Listings, regardless of the sort order the visitor chooses. This is a great advantage!

Highlighted Summary: Highlights your listing/ad summary in yellow (while listed on a page with other seller's items) to make it stand out from other listings. The listing will be seen this way when listed on the summary page (when shown on a page with other ads). When someone clicks through to view your listing/ad alone, the listing is no longer highlighted because it is no longer needed, making it easier on the eyes to read.

Display My Other Listings: Places a graphic image in your listings when they come up in search results (while listed on a page with other seller's items) . The graphic image reads: "More from this Seller". When members click on the image it takes them to a special page with all of your listings. Gold & Trusted Sellers get this feature for free; a graphic "GA Store" link which is a hot link to a page with just their listings.

Bordered Listing: Places a thick, crisp, dark red, hard line border around your thumbnail listing photo (the smaller photo shown on a page with other ads), making your photo stand out from the rest. A bordered listing combined with Highlighted Summary makes a big impact, and will no doubt catches the eye!

Home Page: This very special feature places your listing/ad on the GunsAmerica home page within one hour of when you post it. It will be the first (will be one of five) of all listings seen by anyone who visits the GunsAmerica's home page. Although this is a very special feature, since there are only five prime spots reserved for this feature on the home page, keep in mind you can get "knocked off" the home page at any time. Meaning, your ad may appear for anywhere from a few days, to a few weeks, or even just a few minutes. How long your listing stays on the home page depends completely on how many other sellers chose the home page feature while your listing is there. There is NO guarantee as to how long your listing will appear on the home page and there are NO refunds if you get knocked off the home page sooner than you expected. Choose the Home Page feature only if you want immediate exposure but understand there is no time guarantee and you can afford the extra fee. There is no refund for this or any other special feature.

Additional Images: The first photo for every listing is always free. There is a small fee for additional images, depending on your membership level and how many images you upload.

Please visit our FAQs page for more information.

E-Z Ad Fees, Features, and Policies *$30.00 Listing Fee No After Sale Fee, No Selling Fee, No Need to Report a Sale!** * Special Features are extra (extra photos, highlighted or bold listings, etc.). What's an E-Z Ad? An E-Z Ad is like an Internet version of a traditional classified ad you might find in a trade magazine or newspaper; you list what you're selling and the asking price, and potential buyers contact you to make the deal. But unlike any other GunsAmerica listing type, all offers from E-Z Ads go directly to you, and will not be handled by the GunsAmerica offers & messaging system. Plus, unlike our Classified Ads & Auctions, you can enter your telephone number and email address in the listing description. And with an E-Z Ad there's no cost when you sell the item and the basic listing fee (if no special features are added) is just $30.00 - no matter what the value of the item is!
Special Notes & Policies: > E-Z Ads are not only easy to post, but the are also easy to manage. > No need to go through the offers & messaging system to communicate with buyers. > You can post your telephone number and email address directly in the listing description. (no URLs or website please) > There are NO restrictions on who can post. > There are no fees to consider beyond the up front $30 listing fee and any Special Features you may choose. > There are no fees for any sales from an E-Z Ad - you do not have to report any sale from an E-Z Ad. > The E-Z Ad listing fee is due and payable even if your item does not sell. > E-Z Ads can run from 1 day to 60 days, your choice. > You can only list one type of item per listing, no "either or" deals, price must reflect per item or per lot and it must be clear in the description. > You can have more than one of the same item in a listing, but it must be the EXACT same item and made clear how many for the price. > You MUST have the item in stock and ready to ship immediately. > GunsAmerica reserves the right to delete any listing that violates policies - there will be NO REFUNDS for such deleted listings. > GunsAmerica reserves the right to terminate the membership of any member that violates policies - there will be NO REFUNDS if this happens. > Please visit our FAQs page if you have questions and for more information. > Becoming a member, using our services, or creating a listing means you agree to our fees, policies, and TOS.

What's a Classified Ad?
A Classified ad on GunsAmerica is very much like a line ad in your local newspaper. You list (describe) what you are selling along with the price and photo(s), and potential buyers will contact you with an offer to buy or ask questions to get more information.

Special Notes & Policies:
> You pick the selling price (unlike Auctions).
> Setting a price means you deal with less "low-ballers" wasting your time.
> You can choose to sell to anyone who makes an offer you agree with.
> You can edit or change your Classified Ad at any time (Auctions cannot be edited in any way).
> You MUST have the item in stock and ready to ship immediately.
> You can only list one type of item per listing, no "either or" deals, price must reflect per item or per lot and it must be clear in the description.
> You can have more than one of the same item in a listing, but it must be the EXACT same item and made clear how many for the price.
> You MUST report the sale of EACH item or lot, so if you have multiples be sure to indicate this when you create the listing.
> Classified Ads can remain live "until sold"; until the right buyer comes along. No need to continually repost.
> There are NO restrictions on who can post a Classified Ad.
> There are no listing fees for Classified Ads, unless you choose to pump up your listing with Special Features.
> All Special Feature Fees are due and payable even if your item does not sell.
> Classified Ad listing descriptions can NOT contain any contact information or website URLs.
> Classified Ads use the Offers & Messaging system to insure privacy of both the buyer & seller.
> GunsAmerica reserves the right to delete any listing that violates policies - there will be NO REFUNDS for such deleted listings.
> GunsAmerica reserves the right to terminate the membership of any member that violates policies - there will be NO REFUNDS if this happens.

What's an Auction and how does it work?
An Auction means that there is no pre-determined final sale price. Potential buyers will "bid" and at the end of the auction period, often right down to the last second, the highest bidder will "win" the right to buy for its final price.
> The seller posts an auction for a predetermined time period (it cannot be ended early unless using BUY IT NOW).
> Members place bids during the time the auction is posted - right until the last second of the last day.
> At the end of the auction the highest bidder wins the right to purchase the item (of course all laws and regulations must be followed for them to actually make the purchase).
> If the BUY IT NOW choice was offered by the seller (optional) and a member uses it, the auction and bidding ends at that time and that member wins the right to purchase the item immediately.

What's an Approved Bidder Auction?
An Approved Bidder Auction is just like a regular auction, with one major difference; the seller gets to pre-qualify bidders before they can bid. This type of auction is primarily for EXPENSIVE or RARE guns because most people will not take the time to register as an approved bidder to bid on a common gun. (A check box for this listing choice will appear if you chose auctions on the "Select a Listing Type" page). All other aspects apply to an Approved Bidder Auction that applies to a regular auction.

* MANY USERS FIND AUCTIONS TO BE MORE COMPLICATED THAN CLASSIFIED ADS.
* MANY USERS FEEL ACCEPTING A "BLIND" BID FROM AN UNKNOWN PERSON IN AN AUCTION CREATES COMPLICATIONS WHEN SELLING FIREARMS.
* AUCTIONS CAN NOT BE ENDED EARLY FOR ANY REASON.
* AUCTIONS CAN NOT BE EDITED OR CHANGED FOR ANY REASON.
* YOU MUST HAVE THE AUCTION ITEM AVAILABLE TO SELL RIGHT TO THE END OF THE AUCTION'S SCHEDULED END DATE.

IF YOU ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH AUCTIONS and/or IF YOU ARE NOT FAMILIAR WITH SELLING FIREARMS WE RECOMMEND THE USE OF CLASSIFIED ADS AND E-Z ADS TO SELL YOUR ITEMS!!

Special Notes & Policies:
> Auctions can NOT be edited once posted (unlike E-Z Ads and Classifieds).
> Auctions can NOT be ended early unless you offered BUY IT NOW on the listing and a bidder uses this option.
> You MUST keep the item available until the end of the Auction or until the BUY IT NOW option is used by a bidder.
> You MUST sell to the winner if there is one, at the end of the auction or to the BUY IT NOW bidder (as long as selling to them is legal).
> You MUST have the item in stock and ready to ship immediately.
> You can only list one item or lot per Auction, no "either or" deals.
> You can NOT use Auctions to sell multiple items, even if they are all the same item. The winning price must pay for ALL that was listed.
> Basic/Free members can NOT post/list an Auction.
> There are no listing fees for Auctions, unless you choose to pump up your listing with Special Features.
> All Special Feature Fees are due and payable even if your item does not sell.
> Auction listing descriptions can NOT contain any contact information or website URLs.
> Auctions use the Offers & Messaging system to insure privacy of both the buyer & seller.
> GunsAmerica reserves the right to delete any listing that violates policies - there will be NO REFUNDS for such deleted listings.
> GunsAmerica reserves the right to terminate the membership of any member that violates policies - there will be NO REFUNDS if this happens.

On Demand Fees, Features, and Policies NO Listing Fees > listings are pre populated with description & images by the manufacturer Special Features are not available for this listing type. Listings cannot be altered or edited in any way. (More about On Demand) GUNS & FIREARMS (in stock and special orders for pistols, rifles, and shotguns) Selling Fees: 1.0% of selling price ($10 minimum) You must be an FFL Dealer to sell On Demand items. (other restrictions may apply, click here for more info or to sign up) Membership Fees & Benefits NON-GUN ITEMS (parts, ammo, clips, mags, holsters, accessories, books, services, misc., etc.) On Demand is currently not available for Non-Gun items but may be in the future. What's On Demand and how does it work? Its impossible for every dealer to carry every model of every gun, no matter how big of a store you may have and no matter how much of a demand there may be for an item. That's where On Demand comes in. Think of On Demand as “special order” items. On Demand will allow you, the seller, to offer items for sale on GunsAmerica even if you don't have that item in stock, even if you've never had it in stock and never expect to keep it in stock. The best part is you don't even have to create a listing, type text description, or upload images. You simply select which items you want to offer from a manufacturer's On Demand list, and allow orders to come in. Want To See How It Works, As a Buyer Would? Go to the GunsAmerica.com home page and do a search for Beretta. You'll see the buyer can refine his search by Classifieds, Auctions, or On Demand items. Chose only the “On Demand” option to search, select an item to view from the listings that come up, and see what the buyer sees. Who Can Sell Using On Demand? To utilize On Demand to advertise and sell items you must have a current FFL and a “brick and mortar” store. That means just having an FFL and selling firearms from your home won't cut it, sorry. You must have a real storefront. If you have an FFL and storefront you need to be on an approved FFL dealer list before you can offer any item from that manufacturer. You can find out if you qualify by clicking through to the sign up page for a manufacturer (sign up is per manufacture, not one sign up for all). You'll go through a quick application process (usually just entering your FFL number and or contact information) to find out if you qualify.* In some cases you are pre qualified just be being a GunsAmerica registered FFL Dealer, and you will see a notice saying you are in fact approved. If you qualify you can start offering manufacturer's items On Demand immediately. You'll need to enter your GA account, go to Selling: On Demand, and add items. You can add all items from that manufacturer, or just what you select. You will be asked some basic questions about which items you want listed as available through you, how much you want to sell an item for, your shipping costs, etc., and that's it. The manufacturer's stock photos and text description is used to advertise the item so its pretty easy to use. * Before attempting to qualify, please make sure your FFL Details form is filled out completely in your GunsAmerica registration. Many sellers do not have the form completed and this can cause problems signing up for On Demand. If you're told your FFL or contact information is not a “match” that means you do not currently qualify because you are not currently on that manufacturer's On Demand approved stocking dealers list and/or you have not yet filled out your FFL information in full with GunsAmerica. If you are not a match you should contact us, making sure you tell us which manufacturer you did not qualify for (not a match), and we can tell you what you need to do to qualify. Sign Up: To sign up for On Demand visit the GunsAmerica Guns On Demand page: http://www.gunsamerica.com/gunsOnDemand.htm
Special Notes & Policies: > Orders from buyers come to you, fulfilled through your existing distributors (or if the manufacturer does not use a distributor, through the manufacturer). The way you, the seller, order items does not change. This is all about getting orders from buyers to you, for items you do not have to have in stock. > Capture new customers and make more sales by offering what they want, even if you don't have that item in stock. > Major manufactures (Beretta, Remington, Mossberg, Rock River Arms, etc.) with more added regularly. > No GunsAmerica posting fees. > Flat rate $10 GunsAmerica sale fee, no matter how much the item sells for. > Must be Verified, Gold, or Trusted level member. > MUST have an FFL and storefront. (make sure your FFL information is filled out completely and accurately in your GunsAmerica Account Details) > GunsAmerica reserves the right to terminate the membership of any member that violates policies - there will be NO REFUNDS if this happens. > Becoming a member, using our services, or creating a listing means you agree to our fees, policies, and TOS.
