What is Armslist like these days? Is it a wasteland yet with the fees now? Anyone see any traffic dips or lack of interest because of the fees? Trying to gauge whether or not to join. Thanks.
You can be a non paid member (I am) and be able to read all the ads. You can also start and stop a paid membership, even for just a month. I still use armslist. $6.99 for a month long ad is still cheap. Spam and doorkickers have mostly gone away. Many of the private sellers now leave a phone number or email in their ads (I do) to avoid the armslist middle man.Then, I was looking at my ad at work on a computer that was not logged on to my account. All the private ads had their information blurred out. You have to be a paid member now just to read the ad.
I bought two guns FTF before they started charging. The last time I attempted to buy there a scammer selling primers kept making excuses why he couldn't meet FTF. The price was too good and I found the same picture on GB he used but at double the price. Since they started charging our local listings have gone from 15 pages to 5-6 and not worth the bother or money. Too bad, it was good while it lasted.Nope. Never connected and bought anything when it was free. Why pay for such exasperation?
