As they should.
Want a refund? Return the gun.
You do realize that GB is owned by a gun shop don't you? While I didn't mention it I did ask that they act as a non-partial 3rd party and hold the shotgun until issue resolved. Needless to say they never respond to this request.
Bravo to GB for abiding by their written policies!
It isn't "hiding"........it's there in black and white. Just because you failed to read GB's policies before you bid its a bit unfair to whine about them "hiding" afterward..

Now it might just be me, but it seems to me that if someone claims that a firearm is "Super Nice" and when question concerning specific concerns tells me it only a couple dent when the barrels have a total of 10, no pitting, when both barrels had to be honed and don't divulge that both barrels have bulges in them. To me and the sections that I copy and paste above would seem that the seller was the one that violated the rules/policies and lose all protection of any rules/policy of GB.
Oh by the way not only do I have pictures of the mess that was sold me. But I have the gunsmith that acted as the transfer agent that would support my claims, plus due to the fact I was stuck with the gun (THANK YOU GB!), a well known metal smith in the shotgun world that did his best to fix the barrels can vouch to the condition of the gun.
Maybe you should review the above Users Agreement and Site Rules...
How do you know until you send it back?
How does the seller know that YOU aren't scamming him?
Really! I have the proof (
copy of the auction page, email, pictures, and 2 eye witnesses)that the man lies to me twice and you expect me to give him a third time to screw me? As it is obvious you're a dealer from your signature I can understand where your coming from.
