If your background check comes back "Approved" you will be able to take your gun(s) with you that day.

We Represent Each Item To The Very Best Of Our Knowledge & Offer Many Good Photos So That Each Potential Buyer Knows Exactly What They Are Bidding On.
Each Firearm Is Presumed To Be In Good Working Order, Unless Otherwise Described. But, There Is Absolutely NO RETURNS.
It Is Each Bidders Responsibility To Draw Their Own Conclusion On Age, Condition & Authenticity. Once Again - Take Advantage Of All Of The Good Photos, Which Should Represent Each Items Good & Bad Features.....
Photos: We use very high exposure purposely in an attempt to get high quality detail out of the lettering and scratches on each gun. This is certainty a double edged sword, as it will lighten up the color to a high degree, taking away from any nice/ dark bluing. We try to compensate this by also taking another picture, at a different angle with less exposure, in an attempt to show the natural colors.
Please note, it is very common for scuffs & scratches seen in the photos, not to be noticeable in regular light.
Also note, our bright lights will commonly reflect on the metal and other shiny surfaces, causing the illusion of a scuff or flaw.
We have found that when a buyer receives a gun, it is usually in better condition than they anticipated, based on the photos. This also eliminates many problems/ unsatisfied customers after the auction.... At the end of the day our goal is to show flaws and lettering in as much detail as possible.
Our standard office hours are 9am-5pm CST, Monday-Friday (Special Hours The Week After Each Auction).....
To contact us please email auction@willsullivanauction.com.....
Please do not call, unless it is an emergency.....
