    Question Meaning of $SPF

    What is the definition of the term SPF when a firearm is listed for sale? I'm computer term illiterate. Thanks. Puppy.

    Why puppychow I do believe it means' SOLD PENDING THE ARRIVAL OF FUNDS"
    If the cash doesn't come then it gets put up and sold to a CGN'er that has the dough.
    When the government passes laws that only peaceable people obey, they are simply leaving the same people at the mercy of violent predators.

    Thanks for the info. Now the meaning is clear.
    S= sold
    P= pending
    F= funds

    Seller Pays Freight makes more sense for the body of an ad, if it is to mean Sold Pending Funds it should be the prefix, WTT, WTS or SPF.

    I take it to mean the seller has agreed to sell item to a buyer and is waiting for arrival of payment. so, is it currently for sale or not? annoying when one opens an ad and sees spf. being a separate category seems to make sense since it is really currently "not for sale".

    A victimless crime is a term used to refer to actions that have been ruled illegal but which are argued not to directly violate or threaten the rights of any other individual.
