Overpriced and bro is dumping his life story in the description

u/Otherwise_Rub_9515 29d ago
I think he's trolling tbh

u/jman_jd10 29d ago
I really really really wish he was but he’s been on gunpost for 7 years and since I’ve owned guns I’ve been seeing his ads

u/ColdHart9790 29d ago
His wife keeps asking him to sell and he keeps telling her “I posted an ad, I don’t know why no one’s calling.”

He's glazing a used gun like it's a used underwear in a japanese vending machine

u/Sillyak 29d ago
LOL I too would like to sell my used guns for more than retail.

u/16gaugeguy16 29d ago
See when you change the word "used" to "broken in", it adds value apparently lol...

u/CrowsFeast73 29d ago
Put 40 rounds through it and claims that it's broken in. He's not even half way there yet!

u/SecureNarwhal 29d ago
and it's a pump action, I don't think you really need to break those in. maybe the action will get smoother over time but I thought break in was for semis

u/Eglitarian 29d ago
And a 590 that he supposedly cleaned, oiled, removed said oil from subsequent cleaning, and then oiled again.
Bruh, my 500 is cleaned on a “I’ll get to it” basis. It likes to run dirty.

u/16gaugeguy16 29d ago
The 590A1 can be put away wet and not cleaned and it will still work. People get way too picky about gun cleaning. They clean a glock or 590A1 like it is a Holland and Holland

u/gspotcowboy 29d ago
Can confirm: cleaned my 590, 500 rounds ago lol

u/Bobba_cs 29d ago
The 590 is not the model but actually how many rounds minimum you must run before you are allowed to clean it lol

I remember selling a guy a rifle for 1800 and like 3 months later he had it listed for 4000 lol

u/jman_jd10 29d ago
Same thing happen to me 😂 I ended up buying it back from him a year later for 400 less than what he paid me

Absolutely delusional.
Picked mine up with upgraded magpul grip and stock. Upgraded safety, upgraded bead sight, and a sling, wepon light, bayonet and case all for $1000.
In what world do people really think there shit is worth that much used? And in what world are people actually paying it?

I've honestly thought of making a new version of gunpost that compares guns to the price of new

That would be tricky to monitor all the different retailers and sales, but I'm sure there would be a market for it

u/DougMacRay617 29d ago
A couple sentences in and its obvious this guys slightly regarded... why would you be done with gunpost because of some fudd?

u/jman_jd10 29d ago
Brother 90% of the guns I see on here are above retail
2
u/16gaugeguy16 29d ago
Years ago I used to actually scroll through gunpost looking for deals and interesting guns. Now I just filter search a list of things I'm looking for and ignore the rest.
Most of the stuff on there is just generic and overpriced.

u/DougMacRay617 29d ago
Then go buy retail... gunpost has been great to me but i just over look the scalpers.

I don’t think you need to break in a 590A1

u/Free-Tradition5459 28d ago
I spent a good hour working the safety of mine with some oil when it was brand new. But I wouldn’t admit that offline lest someone starts thinking I’ve got soft hands.

u/Hot_Cheesecake_905 29d ago edited 29d ago
The seller is a time waster - I tried buying something from him about two months ago.
He spent the whole time texting me about nonsense only at the last minute to back out of the sale because something was wrong with his supposedly mint-condition firearm.
If you see ads by this Peterborough seller, they’re all overpriced, not sure what’s up with him perhaps he’s lonely and needs friends.

u/LordRevan1996 29d ago
Maybe he’s trying to scare people off cause he doesn’t want to sell. Just has the ads up to appease the wife, if he has one lol

u/Cager_CA 29d ago
I knew it was him. He had a German made Swedish Mauser up for $950. A fucking steal and a half and he’s not far. Messaged him and after some back and forth he pulled the sale. I moved on. He relisted it for over 2k lmao AND IT SOLD.

Saw this awhile back, had a good chuckle. Someone needs to tell this guy Mossys dont have a break in period.

u/TescoValueSoup 29d ago
charging over retail because its broken in.
brother, its a 590A1. only thing needs breaking in is the safety.

u/coniferslav 29d ago
Well a Benchmade Crooked River is like $200-300. Wonder if he broke that in too...

u/jman_jd10 29d ago
50% sure it’s a clone lol the box looks like the one my Benchmade clone come in the which looks nothing like a real one

u/thecoolernameistaken 29d ago
Meanwhile I’m selling my shotgun with all accessories for the price I paid the gun just cuz I need handgun money

u/Clear_Disaster2583 29d ago
Definitely don't look at his ads for his mausers and enfields, or his knockoff clone trench shotguns.

u/BowFella 29d ago
I got my 590 shockwave for 350 used like 2 years ago... Good to know I saved $1000

u/567432Gains 29d ago
Like, although it’s true it takes time and a bit of materials to strip down a gun and give it a deep cleaning (I have the 590A1 SPX, I did just as this guy has described myself) it in no way leads to an increase in price.
If I want to get someone to clean my gun, I’ll pay 50-$75 for it. But I wouldn’t do that because I want to know how to properly clean and disassemble and reassemble my own guns.
As for “Breaking it in”, whatttttt? You mean you used it? If I buy a car, drive it for a few hundred Kilometres, and then try to sell it as some sort of benefit in broken it in, I would be delusional. You drive a car off the lot brand new, take 10% off the price tag for resale almost immediately.
Some people have actually lost their damn minds.

u/That_Trip_5071 29d ago
It seems like it is getting pricier and pricier, people are asking new price without tax for years old scopes etc, I love gunpost and hate it at the same time!

u/Holiday-Archer-2119 29d ago
He's got a firm price where $460 - $530 is the knife he included. Probably impulse bought it and cant sell it or return it so he's gotta try to dump it this way.
Also does he have pictures of the knife? Im curious if the knife is fake and he's trying to scam someone
2
u/jman_jd10 29d ago
He does and it looks like my clone Benchmade. My guess is the knife is fake and that’s why it’s a “Bonus” instead of listing the gun and the knife separately which would make him more money

u/Holiday-Archer-2119 29d ago
I found the listing and the laser etchings on benchmade are never that dark, even on their damasteel blades. Id report this listing if I were you before someone gets got.
The box model number doesn't match either. 15080-1 is for a silver s30v blade with gray bolsters and a blue gray handle.

Thats a $750.00 shotgun on the used Market
Maybe even less
These shotguns can go 5000 plus rounds without a cleaning

Most ads in a nutshell to be honest....,

Hey guys I'm selling my mossberg maverick 88 for $2899. I know that won't appeal to everyone but this model is very special to me and custom engraved with my initials, so I think its worth that. I made sure to replace the factory oil with the most toxic Teflon infused oil on the market that will never be 100% removed from the gun. 3 rounds I found in my grandfather's sock drawer through it so its broken in

u/OneZookeepergame6427 29d ago
Now lets sub a vehicle and see how it sounds:
2003 Jeep Wrangler Rubicon. This vehicle is 2 to 3x better than a new vehicle. This post will only appeal to someone that does not want to break in there vehicle or someone that doesnt have anywhere to break it in. I would prefer to keep but the heavy solid weight of it. And an leg injury i have is telling me i can sell. That being said i dont care if it sells. So new when i got i took every spec apart cleaned perfectly and lightly oiled. Took to the 407 drove approx 1050 to 2000 kms. Brought home amd cleaned everything, bolt. Cleaned engine, doors, tub, and springs etc. Inspected everything. Then took to 400 one more time drove 2000 to 2500 kms, brought home and cleaned every spec perfectly, inspected it, cleaned engine, doors, tub, and springs etc. Every spec of it nicely. And lightly oiled. It is now properly broken in. Have spent approx 4 hours cleaning it and breaking in. It has only seen the break in kms i have spoke about. I know what they are new 11000 or 12000 plus tax. I am charging extra for it being properly broken in. Alot of ppl i get will like to do them selves i respect that as well. Im sure there might be someone out there that will appreciate what I am offering here as this thing is ready for service. Alot better than a new at the dealer one, it smoothed out the acceleration nicely aswell*** Local folks only please*** 13500.00 firm*** possibly interested in trade if it is something in V8. Or a military surplus.*** Includes new bench made crooked river knife***

To be fair a new one would still be $200 more at tenda right now with hst. All the bs about charging extra to break it in i get it, but if its minty its still a deal. You could always try to barter a bit too.

The kid is a mental midget, 100% guarantee on that, but I don't know that he's that far off the mark for his asking price. A 590A1 Retro model (20") retails for $1449.00 right now at FOC, and arguably, a preference toward a 14" might get him near to his asking price? Nevermind his retarded bs, if it's a newer 590A1 complete, $1100-$1200 all day.
YMMV.

Great deal, buy three of then and sell two after the sale at just under retail to cover the expense of the one you keep! Work smarter, not harder!!!
