I was having a browse just now and stumbled across a link.
Having noticed certain reservations about Gunstar and Guntrader, I'm wondering if "the Panel" holds any views about this, relatively new, concern.
 
At a first glance it looks similar to the other 2, with a mix of trade and private ads

So the same advice must apply
When buying privately, use common sense and do due diligence. If anything looks off, be very careful
Face to face deals are preferable, unless you are absolutely certain that what you're buying actually exists and in the condition described
Wrong 'uns will be on there, ready to relive the gullible of their hard earned, as with other similar platforms

In my experience, trade sales with RFD's are usually good. Easy enough to find the RFD and ring them on their landline and ask all the relevant questions, before shelling out
 
Oh, I agree completely - the need for caution seems to be greater every time you turn round, but if theres no history of problems then it might be interesting to keep an eye on.
Always room for just one more toyshop window to press the old nose against 🙂
 
-Not that I've found. Not all shops use those sites so I think its a case of settling down with a pot of tea (or two) and finding the online retailers who do a decent range of 'preowned', bookmarking them and keeping an eye.
 
Get another 27 posts and this is the place to buy 2nd hand but your posts must be meaningful and not just (great gun) sort of posts 👍
 
There is another new gun sales site I found through Instagram. It's sub 12 fpe only and is called airriflehub.co.uk. It looks brand new and doesn't have many ads yet.
 
Had a look at rightgunand it seems pretty difficult to navigate. Really just lists what's for sale. Kind of awkward narrowing down to what might be nearby.
And a lot of results are listed a year ago or more
