So I'm trying to bid on the S&W 1006 I've been talking about, but gunbroker.com has flagged my account (which I created for the sole purpose of purchasing this weapon) and there is only 3 hours left in the auction. It's all original, has its original box, mags, and paperwork, and is going for a totally legitimate price. I'm not sure if another will come along like this anytime soon, but I can't even send the seller a message, much less bid on it with my account flagged.
The site says they are "very busy" and it might take 48 hours to get things straightened out. Yes, I tried contacting the site. There is no phone number unfortunately. Is there anything else I can do or are my hands tied? Could I find someone local with an FFL to buy it on my behalf or does that fall under the "only you can buy your gun" rule?
Thanks in advance.
