ArmslistReviews of armslist.com

Pathetic site. It never was great but seems to have become worse and buyers now have to pay $7.00 a month to just make contact with sellers! Then there are the scams, many of which are blatantly obvious, that are allowed even after Armslist has been notified. And then there is the proliferation of Armslist chumps who will contact you, request more photos, negotiate the price to a point of agreement then drop the deal or arrange a meet then not show up. Some of these a$$-holes have no life apparently and get their kicks toying with sellers. And we have to pay for all this now, to belong to the exclusive Armlist club and suffer the abuses. I am done with Armslist.

The recent blur feature in addition to making zero effort to eliminate scams makes Armslist.com absolutely worthless.

This once free site now provides an inferior service that charges every step of the way. What person to person private online marketplace charges not only the sellers but the buyers as well? I had a tough enough time finding a buyer when it was free, now it’s impossible because no buyer is dumb enough to pay even to view a listing, ask a question, make an offer, or buy an item. Scammers are worse than ever and the user interface is a joke. I also refuse to to pay a service fee to look at terrible ads that take up most of the page. What a terrible website…

Armslist worked before charging to use the website. Yes, you had to be careful but I bought numerous items being careful. Now they want a monthly charge. A percentage of sale ok. But not a never ending fee. Users put their contact info on the add so anyone could call them. Now armslist blurs the text unless you log in. Meaning you pay a monthly, never ending fee. Very poor business plan. Goodbye armslist. Gunbroker is more fair

The concept is great but you won't find a decently priced firearm on the site. Majority of listings are from private sellers who have sentimental value on their firearms. Basically you can expect to pay new gun prices or more for a used firearm. Only go to armslist if it's your only option to find a must have firearm.

Its full of scams. The same person makes the same format of the same listing for 50 different guns and its all lame scams that seem to be run by children or foreigners. They don’t understand the pricing or purchase process. Its just clear from simply looking at the listings that they are scams and they don’t remove them. They are reported and they don’t remove them. People make listings just to warn others of the obvious scams they won’t take down. I just unsubscribed because I looked at three scams and couldn’t find any legitimate guns. Furthermore its $6 and you still have look at a million gross stupid low budget ads for scams and click bait. These people would be a good target for a lawsuit or criminal investigation. Someone shut them down. Its a bevy of theives!

The most stupid "business model" ever. Cannot contact a seller unless I pay their monthly fee?? LOL - what a joke. It is time that they get out of business and make room for somebody less greedy and stupid. There is zero support from them and reports of scam listings still get ignored.

Site is a joke. Its a national sales platform but a majority of the people using it only facilitate local sales. Use gun broker.com must better platform and way better sellers.
