Good news for gun buyers and sellers, a new e-commerce site called Pistol Pay recently launched. It's similar to PayPal in that it's a third-party group that processes financial transactions, but unlike PayPal it can actually be used to pay for firearms. Pistol Pay works like this, when one party has to pay the other email addresses are exchanged instead of sending a check, money order or any personal financial information because the email is linked to a Pistol Pay account. The beauty behind Pistol Pay is that its process molds to a system already in place. For payment to actually go through, an FFL has to verify that the purchased item -- a gun or gun accessory -- was actually shipped and had arrived. If the item hasn't or one of the parties backs out, the item ships back and money is refunded. Again, it may sound an awful lot like PayPal, but that's because, well, that was the inspiration behind it. Pistol Pay Launches: New way to buy and sell guns - Gun News at Guns.com
Very interesting. I'll have to wait awhile til all the rough spots are ironed out. Good info though, Wolf.
I was very excited to see this come about. I've already signed up and have my local gun shop (Adco Firearms ) setup as my FFL.
I hope this works out better than the "Gun Pal" debacle. Thanks for putting us on your local dealer list. Have you been to the new shop yet?
Yeah I hope it takes off as well. It would sure be nice to have something other then PayPal. I don't believe I've been to the new shop. Only one I knew about was off Main in Sylvania. Every time I stop in there I want one of everything.
WOW! That is beautiful! Where is the new showroom at? I just know the old location that was/is 1/10th that size.
Thanks. We're proud of it. The new location is just down the street from the old one, just more visibility. It's across from Rite Aid on Monroe. 6481 Monroe St. Sylvania, OH 43560
I will be out that way tomorrow, I have to get my hair cut so I will probably stop in there. Are you working tomorrow?
I might miss you but I will try and get there before 2:30. BTW do you guys run specials? I can setup a forum for Adco that you guys and post specials too...
