shane8168 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 So I walked up to the table at the gun show this morning and to my surprise the guy had 3,000 federal small pistol primers... I started to pick them up, asked the guy behind the table "how much" His response $105 each... DOH, he still owns them! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polizei1 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Did you laugh and tell him he was a crook? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve RA Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Think the proper answer would be to just not buy any ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lee blackman Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 $105 per thousand!!! Wow.... and I thought the local $50 per thousand price was high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youngeyes Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) Did you laugh and tell him he was a crook? I'd tell him he was a crook, but I doubt I'd be laughing. Edited March 23, 2013 by Youngeyes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polizei1 Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Ok, I'll give you a deal..I have 7,000 I can sell at $100 per 1,000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
a matt Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 I have 23,000 for $99.per 1000. Lmao that's crazy but I kinda have grown to expect it at a gun show. We have one here this weekend I'm not even thinking about going. It would just get ticked at the prices for sure. .unethical to say the least. IMHO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shane8168 Posted March 23, 2013 Author Share Posted March 23, 2013 All I could do is walk away shaking my head! Price gougers for sure. There were plenty of Primers there for $50 or just under, so I am betting he takes them home with him. I hope so anyway! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aviatrix Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Hey - so far its still kind of a free country and capitalism and freedom are opposite sides of the same coin. You can't have one without the other. He owns the primers, he can ask whatever he wants, he may or may not get it; but, he can sure as hell ask it. Would you really want it any other way?

Yes its a free country and he can ask what he wants, no one in the thread said he could not, all they said was the price was high and they hoped he took them home. They have the right to think that also, like you said, its a free country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiger49931 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 well just got a notice from a supplier of mine that due to demand ammo manufacturers are increasing ammo prices by 17% ... Thanks to people hording and reselling at stupid prices the companies took notice. so hope fully it will cut in to their profit margin enough that shooters may once again be able to buy ammo and shoot..
