Armslist making me pay to use.

Well then..
I could understand paying to list, but paying to contact a seller. That will be the downfall of the site.

That WILL cut down on a ton of the bull**** users and scammers, though, I'll bet.

I might pay like $10 a year or something, but no way I'm paying $50 a year.

It's probably not cheap to run that site. Not sure how much they make on advertisements..... but OSA is full of capitalists rights?

Seems like a good move on their part. For the cost of one cup of coffee per month I can see reasonable people being willing to pay that. Maybe later they will offer other tiers of membership once the initial shock of paying to play wears off.

*I’d also guess that their ad revenues might be down, too.

It's kind of a debate. I've made such smart deals there that I'll make up $50 in one shot. But that depends on the ads posted and/or who is buying. If it keeps the dumb off the site then I might as well just got to a LGS.

MeWe if someone wants to set up an Oklahoma gun buy/sell/trade group. There are some for other states and countries I have seen.

I thought at one point there was one on there for Oklahoma. I haven't been on it in a year or 2.

I'll pay for a year and see how it goes. If there's still good deals to be made and less nonsense I think it'll be worth it.

I haven't used them in many years. Kinda the Craigslist of the gun world.

I guess if I was a big time operator I might need the exposure but I get by just fine without 'em.

I have not found one for OK, several for Texas but no Oklahoma.
