This is the part of the story from some that really bothers me. I suppose there may be sites where you can do this, but if I buy a gun in the interwebs, it better be a good deal, because I can add shipping and FFL transfer fees to it.

Then, when I pick it up, there is transfer paperwork to file, and affidavits, under penalty of law, that I am buying for me, not for someone else.

Maybe I need to look harder, because evidently criminals have internet options that us mere mortals don't.
