I have used Gun Broker to purchase firearms and recently received a message about an escrow service. Its called Gun Tab (guntab.com), and it advertises as the Paypal for firearms, in addition to the payment service that provides some degree of security as an escrow service, see their promise here https://www.guntab.com/guarantees. I have no affiliation with this site, I thought with all the fraud it may offer a safer way to buy/sell items in the classifieds. I created an account and it seems that the fees can be paid by the seller, charged to the buyer, or split 50/50. Unfortunately, dishonest people take advantage of a great group of people here. This may be a way to protect yourself in a transaction and for new people to establish a reputation. If you are known or know who you are dealing with this would not be necessary. This would seem to stop the fraud and abuse for new members or dealing with someone you have not transacted with before.
Please let me know your thoughts and if you have used an escrow service your experiences.
