What information should I include in my listing?
Best practices for creating a complete and accurate listing.
Complete listings attract better trade partners and reduce back-and-forth. Here's what to include:
Required fields
- Make and model
- Caliber
- Condition grade
- Serial number (not shown publicly — used for compliance)
Recommended additions
- Round count or usage history for handguns
- Barrel length for rifles and shotguns
- Original box and papers (if present)
- Aftermarket modifications or upgrades
- Any known defects or cosmetic wear not captured in the condition grade
- Original purchase price (helps trading partners assess value)
Never include your address, phone number, or personal contact info in a listing description.
