Commission sales?

[Will Hewland]

A bit south for you, but EJC have always sold mine and done a decent job, with commission. The world champs is coming up so there will be some big footfall through the shop next week! With a lot of pool shoots etc at which to try a gun. Maybe call and speak to Jonathan Ward.. or take a trip down, shoot some side events and speak face to face.

I have had good experiences with Wilts Rod and Gun. They have sold several guns for me at 10% commission.

Coley’s  tend to work the other way around. They ask what you want for the gun and then put their commission on top.

It is STILL worth a trip up the M6 though  !

I have sold a few guns through Guntrader but it is all down to price. Older stuff is easier to sell as those looking for new tend to want either finance or a warranty. You will need to either be very good on price to make your advert attractive. That said my local dealer is struggling to sell anything at the moment too.

I agree, I’ve sold through Guntrader in the past but anything over £1k is slow in my experience, plus expensive if you have to keep resisting.

Problem is once you get beyond starter type guns up to around the £1500 mark, you are in the territory of guns that people trade up to and in most cases I suspect this is done through part-exing with a dealer....that’s my take on it anyway. 

Thanks again all
