Armslist just committed suicide.

It now costs $4-$7 per month if you want to post or reply to any ad you see.

They cite rising legal costs forcing them to generate funds via a monthly subscription.

No thanks.
 
I would consider $1-2 per month IF you could view and rate other user accounts. That would clean up a lot of the filth on there. The scammers would fall away, and you'd know if you're dealing with someone you can trust. Oh well. So long Armslist!
 
I've got a couple of ad's currently on Armslist and I have not been charged anything.

Where does one get this info>>>>>/?
 
Bummer I liked armslist ☹️

Well

There trying to get peeps to just add their number in the ad..atleast for us looky loos that would be cool but if you want to sell we gotta stick with us cheap asses here on the forums..😂
 
I have done a lot of deals there. Too bad. Loads of quality people right here, though.
 
What a bunch of dumbasses. I have been able to find a workaround thanks to arf forums
Ifucking hate Armslist even before this bullshit, but have found that as the only way to buy/sell to a wider audience than any other methods locally.

the problem with selling here is that its like trying to sell ice to eskimos. Most people here already have more guns than they need so unless you are selling something highly desirable, hard to get or giving it away .. it can sit for ages.

I have never bought a gun on Armslist but got some good deals on ammo and components before the madness but when I wanted to sell, while I always put it up here first, it could sit here for weeks but be gone on armslist in a day or two because it has more new shooters or people that dont have 18 guns and just want a bargain.

I would have been ok with some type of system where if a seller sells a gun armslist gets a cut but not being able to enter into the conversation with someone without having a membership just means I wont be cruising armslist for Sh*t I probably dont need anyway.
 
Yeah, no great loss. I ran into as many folks I'd rather not sell to/buy from on there as I have with Backpage.
Besides, it'll be one less place to get the "damn I want that" feels.

The cool thing is if people put their number you can still reach out without paying. Also if you have any ads on there, you can continue to recycle them without paying.

I already tried that. It won't let me.
 
Only upside- will keep the scammers at bay more than likely.
I’m with the $1 a month or $10 a year crowd as long as it was PayPal, Zelle or the like so I didn’t have to give my CC info.
Other than that, well, at one point people thought Jams were cool.

There is a workaround for that. The listing number is the 8 digit number of your ad in the address bar of your ad.
