Hello Richard, about two days in I did open a case with them, used the drop-down to select "security" when they asked the nature of the issue, I politely explained there may be a legal issue and if they could please cancel the listings but they completely ignored me and let the auction finish. Doesn't really say much for GB's customer support or even proper management of the website. You would think that if a legal issue did arise then they opened themselves up to a liability by ignoring being notified. Maybe not, who knows what their fine print reads. Then to add insult to injury I had a bunch of hard heads keep bidding the items up anyway so now I get the red ass with the final value fees. Not one of my brightest moments 🤡

Thank you Ron, I had no idea. These seemed to be ok not too many years ago, GB was littered with saw cuts back then, that's where I bought them all.

GB won't let me end the listings with bids. I did add a huge headline to the description though "ending" the auctions and saying no bids would be honored.. Hope that's enough keep me out of hot water..

Okay, just found out this sis a no-no now, but GB won't let me cancel the listing... Anyone have suggestions ? Can I just add a message to the listing stating it's not for sale anymore ? I'll be legally bound to sell to the high bidder but would they pursue me on an object that isn't allowed anymore ?

Hi folks, I'm finally selling my original grip on GB, it's paired with a saw cut receiver parts kit and a Seymour "L" drum. You may remember it from about six years ago when I battled Huggytree on the eBay auction, this is the same grip and if I remember correctly the seller was a member here as well. The glare from the lighting makes it look shinier than it really is. I did wipe all the wood with a drop of boiled linseed oil and please pardon the cat hair 🙄 and yes his name is Tommy. I'm in Henderson CO if any local members want to take a look-see. Auction starts at one penny, no reserve.

If he has Cpanel or equivalent then editing his page(s) is easy peasy, using file manager and the various editors (html etc.) You can also change file/folder permissions (read, write etc). I even think FTP client Filezilla offers same options.

Hi Bob, thank you for the info. Is the hopper an accessory/option or was the the gun unable to operate without it ? It would just be destined for display but I'd hate for it to be incomplete. Steve

So there's a Japanese type 11 parts kit on GB right now, but what has me wondering is that the seller is selling what seems to be an integral part of the gun, the hopper, in a separate auction. Does it seem odd that the kit would be separated like that ? I'd be much more apt to bid if it was combined, I wouldn't want to win the kit and not win the hopper, or vice versa and to be honest that would keep me from jumping in.

Are any members here planning on placing a bid ? I have one so I'll stay away so someone here can add it to their collection but otherwise I think I'd like to bid.

When I had my shop in New Orleans (pre-Katrina) I used to rent out some of my inventory to the local movie industry, they really mucked up a lot of good vintage. They ruined a 1950's aqua stove, chipped and marred up the once perfect porcelain finish. They sprayed other objects/wall art with something hazy to reduce glare, was a real pain to clean off. I eventually said no to any more rentals and told them that if they wanted to use something from my shop they had to buy it.

"It's a small, small world" Towards the end of this thread, the grip is discussed. Possibly real, but likely heavily sanded and stained/dyed. Original seller is verified shady. http://www.machinegunboards.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=21486

4'7", but on the bright side her low center of gravity likely made her quite stable in a shooting stance. And she probably doesn't bump her head as much as tall folk

Not sure if this has been posted here, but she apparently trained in Israel after the war. Saw this pic with her standing in front of a Sten (?) and a Thompson. Internets seems to confirm as true.

Hi everyone, I have a Polish RPD kit I want to display but my provided receiver is massacred. I really don't want a non-original dummy or a new semi, I'd rather rather have a demilled receiver that has been legally welded (blocking bar or whatever might be needed) back to the point where the gun can be assembled. Does anyone out there offer this type of service ? I don't care if it still has gaping torch cuts as long as the thing holds together. Thanks ! Steve

It's the exact same grip as the GB auction, he must be having his friend sell it for him https://www.gunbroker.com/item/743545170 https://www.ebay.com/itm/292436114113?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&fromMakeTrack=true
