Screen shot the ad

If he says anything but refund or send it back, initiate claim with gunbroker. You gave him his chance.

If gunbroker fucks you, do a CC chargeback

Once the CC is charged back permeantly, have the FFL mail the rifle back but only after the chargeback sticks

Move on with your life

Top 25 GB seller here





He  Should take that rifle back on his dime as it is obviously not as described



Could be a factory  error but more likely he switched uppers ,




or it is actually a used rifle someone switched uppers on




Or , it's a "new" rifle he received from a distributior that was returned to the distributor by a dealer that swapped the upper







You letter is too long winded .







Tell him you are sending the rifle back and you expect a refund including original shipping and return shipping.







If he will not do that get your CC involved.

Too much wishy washy BS.  Just get straight to the point.  The only thing that you have to explain to him is that the item you got is not what you bought.  He can either send you the correct rifle or your money.  Either way you aren't accepting the one he shipped.  That's it, end of story.

If you are trying to weasel out of allowing him sending you the correct rifle then you are in the wrong, not him.  He would be within his rights try to correct the error in a timely manner and fulfill the terms of the auction.  All this bullshit about how you are jaded and want to call the whole thing off is cunt talk.  Don't be that guy.  That doesn't mean you have to accept the wrong rifle or wait a month for him to make it right with the correct rifle.

So I bought a brand new Colt AR15A4 20" M16A4 off of gunbroker from a storefront. Paid, shipped all is well.

Got the rifle in today at my FFL. Has a fucking 1:9 twist HBAR barrel.... EVERY AR15A4 i've ever seen has the correct 1:7 twist. It even states it in the ad.  Needless to say i was super pissed and disappointed. I do not think it was the gunshops fault, but regardless i did not get what i paid for. Equivalent of ordering a V8 mustang and it shows up with a V6. So i did NOT accept the rifle at my FFL and kept it in his possession and contacted the seller. He has been very responsive so far.


I am wanting a return at this point as this whole experience left me jaded. He is saying no, and the ad stated "AS-IS, and no returns". He is offering to send me a replacement rifle when one becomes available. I told him I do not want this at this point and just want a return. He then wrote "why would a replacement be unacceptable".


What can I do? At this point I just want a return and i'll buy one locally i can inspect. I REALLY do not want to file a claim with my bank to get my money back or be a dick to this guy either.


What's the best and most polite way to do this?

I tend to be nice to people, and do not believe he is personally responsible (might be who knows). That said I understand what you are saying.




What i comes down to is this. If that auction had a shipping time of two+ weeks i would have said fuck that and moved on. If that auction stated i would get a cock tease rifle, THEN i MIGHT get a correct replacement in who knows how fucking long, I would have said Fuck it. My only job was to provide him with money and an FFL. I did my part. He failed on his. I do not want a replacement regardless if it is "right", I just want my money back to start over. Being a dick up front usually does not get you what you want. Hence the "cunt" talk

There is a insane amount of inventory out there right now and a huge amount waiting in the wings
If H wins I think there will be a panic but stuff will not be nearly as sparse as Sandy Hook ( nothing available at any price )



more like first Obama election panic ( higher prices but still reasonably available stuff if you want to pay for it )

Instead, you shipped a rifle with a heavy barrel 1:9 twist.  That is unacceptable.

New or used?  Colt makes changes without notifying the world.  Why not just let him send a replacement rifle?  Seems like it would put the issue to bed and you could lower your blood pressure.  You can always file a complaint with your CC company while you wait for a replacement, and then withdraw the complaint should the replacement arrive within the time period.

If you still have the gun and charge it back with your CC co he can call the ATF and report the gun stolen.

 
There might be some here who say thats BS but trust me I know what I am talking about.

I had a cop in Wa state charge back a $1500 pistol, we called the gunshop and they sent us video of the guy picking up the gun , we never had to call the ATF , he sent us an overnight check cert too.

But I did talk to one of the ATF agents who said yep, call if you need to

UPS/USPS/FedEx usually drop a stack of boxes off and get them all signed for at once.  If the FFL doesn't know it's coming back he won't notice what's in the package and who shipped it until after he signs for it and opens it.

If he charges it back while he still has the rifle the shop owner can call ATF and report the gun stolen as the customer now has the $$ & the gun

ATF won't do anything because it's a civil matter, and if you were a licensee I could point you to a discussion about a recent incident (except in this one the FFL is the douche who did the chargeback on another FFL).

1:9 wouldn't bother me. HBAR would.

Agreed, I like 1:9. But even worse than being an H-Bar, is that a lot of those bbl configs by Colt came through as NON chrome lined.

Same here.  I am interested how this turns out for the OP.  It sucks not getting what you paid for.

Hey XXXXXX, I appreciate the replacement offer, but to be honest man i'm not interested in that route. This particular experience has jaded me on online deals from here on out. And that is no fault of you personally by the way, but I'd rather buy one locally I can inspect before purchase. I do not want a replacement rifle at this time. If it had been a huge gouge, chips in paint, or damaged finish or the like, sure that would be acceptable. But that was not the case. I get the "As is- no returns" and agree with that 100% but I do not feel that applies here. "AS-IS, no returns" doesn't mean someone can advertise one thing and then deliver another. Then once a complaint is made, ship you another and you just have to eat it. I'm not trying to come off as rude or an asshole here. Quite the contrary. But at this point I just want a return, mutual positive feedback, and to go are ways, with the potential for me to be a return customer in the future. I do NOT want to have to involve my Credit Card company, internet, etc etc. Nor do I think you deserve that either. It would be much easier for both of us if you could just issue a return and shipping label to my FFL. Please let me know.

You're being far too fucking nice.


"I ordered a 1/7 upper.  This is a 1/9 upper.  I'm sending it back and not paying for anything.  Thank you."

If he says anything other than, "Shit, you're right, my bad, let me get that." go through your fucking credit card company.  Sweet fucking christ.

That's my take on it. . . what the hell was the part about you potentially being a return customer you start off by saying you're done with online sales and then it sounds like you're trying to coax him into what is already a CRAZY reasonable solution.

Tell the fucker that "AS/IS" doesn't mean he can rip people off and you'll be contacting your credit card, colt, and gunbroker to resolve this if he can't (ASAP)

If he has the rife he cannot charge it back via his CC co   the will ask for proof the rifle is returned, if shop owner will not take it back you cannot just ship it to him, he can refuse the shipment and then it gets sent back with no proof of delivery CC will not issue refund


If he charges it back while he still has the rifle the shop owner can call ATF and report the gun stolen as the customer now has the $$ & the gun

WTF OP? Charge back. If he wants his rifle back he'll pay to have it shipped back.

According to the OP the rifle is still in the possession of the receiving FFL:
So i did NOT accept the rifle at my FFL and kept it in his possession and contacted the seller.


Would that make a difference?
