I would think from the time they take delivery. But, I may be wrong.......

Since seller is certain to have some sort of delivery confirmation, inspection privilege begins upon buyer's receipt of item. Seller and buyer will know date of receipt.

People have always been nice enough to give me three days from MY receipt, not my FFL. My FFL is an individual and not always home when I am.

It should not sit at the FFL's for two weeks.
Common sense goes a long way here.

Exactly. If the gun is so marginal that the seller can't stand an extra day or two for the buyer to pick it up and then inspect it, he is the problem, not the buyer,

So...the seller describes the gun as best he can, takes a pic or two; spends $ to ship the gun...the buyer doesn't like the gun when he gets it in his hands for some reason...who pays what at that point? When the gun is returned, does it have to go ffl or direct to the seller?

The seller doesn't "spend $ to ship the gun", shipping fees are almost always paid by the buyer, either figured into the price of the gun or specified separately. "Who pays" depends on the prior terms of the sale. I'd say the norm is for the buyer/returnee to absorb the return shipping costs, sometimes the seller states that he will, which is usually a sign that he thinks he is describing it accurately. And yes, it has to be shipped back to an FFL as far as I know unless the seller is in the same state.

If the FFL has not logged it in ,he can ship directly to the seller.
