ShootingBid is committed to safe, honest transactions. Here's how we protect you as a buyer.
All sellers on ShootingBid are reviewed and approved before they can list items. We verify identities and FFL credentials where applicable. Sellers with suspicious activity are removed.
Every seller has a public feedback score based on completed transactions. Read reviews from previous buyers before you bid. Sellers with consistently poor ratings are flagged for review.
All firearm transfers through licensed FFL dealers provide a legal paper trail. The dealer conducts a background check, ensuring the transfer is lawful. This protects both buyer and seller.
Use our secure messaging system to ask sellers questions before you bid. Clear communication helps avoid misunderstandings about condition, accessories included, and shipping.
If you experience an issue with a transaction, contact our support team immediately. We investigate all reports and take action against sellers who misrepresent items or fail to complete sales.
ShootingBid uses SSL encryption on all pages. Your personal and payment information is never stored on our servers in plain text. We follow industry-standard security practices.
Our support team is available 7 days a week to assist with disputes, questions, and concerns.
