Doing this for widow, hate to trade convenience for better price, but my time isn't chopped liver either...
I would go through Track of the Wolf, they probably reach a larger sales base than any of the other ones mentioned combined (except the big auction houses). I have sold many guns through them over the years, and have been very happy.
They do not charge a sales commission per say, as far as taking a % of what you are looking to get for a particular gun. They add their % on top of what you are looking to sell the gun for. For example, if you want $1000 for a gun, they will put the gun up for sale for appox $1200 to $1300. When the gun sells you get your $1000. Any negotiating on price with a potential buyer is done on that $200-$300 difference. At least that has been my experience.
If you need appraisals done, they will do that as well, and will be VERY honest on what to expect for prices. If you are realistic on what you expect to get for them, you will be very pleased with the work they do. They handle the advertisement, negotiation with buyers, and shipping. Takes a lot of the headache out of it.
