I've bought several used revo's on GB. I did get burned once on a S&W 624 that was rated as "98% wood, 97% metal" condition. The seller was a large, reputable FFL in Kentucky with over 4,000 sales on GB. When I received it the action was gummed up to the point that the trigger could not be pulled in DA. The extractor star was stuck to the cylinder with old oil turned to varnish.
I had to send it to S&W and pay for the repair ($140), and the gun by the way was subject to recall for bad cylinder steel. (!)
How that gun could pass through their hands without someone noticing that it didn't work is beyond me.
