Is ZFARM real???

[magnumcrzy]

I have heard ZFARM mentioned as a seller of firearms and related items, so I decided to take a look at their website, which contained listings of some interesting items. However, no address is posted on the ZFARM website for this Canadian business. When I sent an email I received a mail delivery failure message. Finally, when I tried the phone number posted on the page (to see what would happen) an automated answering message gave a different number for contacting ZFARM. Because of the problems I encountered, I cannot believe that ZFARM is a reputable business. If anyone else has had a different experience with whoever owns this supposed business I would love to hear from you.

I bought a number of items from Jose (not in recent years though) and my dealings with him were good. He was reliable, honest, handlimg the deal and shipping of items in a timely fashion.

He's very pricey, but if you're looking for a specific collectible item he has and you can't find it elsewhere, then I guess it's the law of supply and demand if you really want it.

I tried calling Zfarm today and was redirected to another number which had a message just in French. I wasn't able to navigate the instructions (I don't speak French well enough) so I sent Jose an email. It has not bounced back. I'll post if I get a reply.

In the past I've purchased items from him but as Badger says, he can be pricey.

As a rule of thumb, Zefarm's stuff is priced about double the market value. I don't think he sells a lot, but what he does sell, he does well on.

Jose is a good guy to deal with in my experience.
I have purchased a number of pieces from him in the past.

I sent him an email tonight and it bounced back undeliverable. Been waiting for a small item for about 6 weeks now. Still shows on his site as sale pending, not sold. Luckily it's not terribly expensive if I get screwed. Jose has been good to deal with in the past.

The last piece I bought from Jose is shown below…which I am very pleased with.

Femaru M1937 (Hungarian) (P.37 u)
This pistol is a “jhv” 43, which is the Second Contract pistol.
The pistol came with two matching magazines.

Ink markings inside the holster flap “ Nur fur Pistole 37 M (Ung.) Kal. 7.65 m/m” with a Luftwaffe acceptance stamp (E/2) on the rear of the holster under the manufacturers code “jsd”and 1942 date.
