Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Do I have to pay to post ads?
No! We will never require any payment to post ads at Guns Arizona Classifieds. There are always a few special options when posting your ad (Featured / Move to Top / Bold / Special / Etc) that we do charge for, but they are not ever required. Just keep in mind that these special options pay our bills to keep this site going and will help your ad stand out and be found easier.
- Does Guns Arizona Classifieds own anything being sold?
No. This site is just a classifieds where individual users post their own items and other users contact them for private sale. We do not sell anything directly.
- Is there anything that is not allowed to sell here?
As long as it's legal, you can post it here. We encourage all users to please report anything illegal and we will deal with it immediately.
- Why did you create this website?
Guns Arizona Classifieds was created to provide Arizona locals with a beautiful, functional and free place to buy, sell and trade their firearms, weapons and related gear. Ebay and Craigslist have never allowed firearms ads and Facebook has now recently banned personal weapons sales too. Along with other local websites using outdated software and forcing people to pay for ads, it was time for a change. The Arizona weapons community deserves much better!
