stinsonbeach Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I know I'll probably get "flamed" for this, but the prices being asked by "you'se guys" are - in most instances - off the freekin' charts! $2500+ for Single Stack! $3500+ for Limited! $5000+ for Open! Long guns - upper/lowers/completes - for >2x what you can build them for! Glass the same - sometimes more - than discounted sites! . . . but they eventually sell . . . so what do I know? -jb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarge Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I remember when a loaf of bread was a nickel... My dad used to tell that story. Only problem was they didn't have a nickel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SiG Lady Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I remember when a pack of cigarettes, a pound of ground beef, and a gallon of gas were each $0.29. No lie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinsonbeach Posted February 8, 2015 Author Share Posted February 8, 2015 I remember when a pack of cigarettes, a pound of ground beef, and a gallon of gas were each $0.29. No lie. Cigarettes = .23 cents w/ 2 pennies in the bottom of the wrapper # of ground beef = ? Gallon of gas = .18.9 cents Letter = .03 cents Golden Gate Bridge = .25 cents School = free . . . & there were those who lived on my block that didn't have the nickel, so their parents were so ashamed that they would always say "...they're not home."

Lifeislarge Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 I remember when a $550 DPMS Oracle was selling for $3000 and .223 was $1.50 a round. I also remember when people were lined up making stupid multiple offers on POS houses and financing with ARMS. I Like now better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
