I've never heard of "United Gun Group," and I spend a fair amount of time looking on the Internet for deals on collectible guns. Every auction site I've used requires the user to register a credit card and check a box acknowledging that bids are legally binding contracts. Either somebody's pulling our collective chains, or some poor joker is going to be on the hook for a lot of money when and if this thing ever closes.
