He's not joking. The first case of 7.62 I ever purchased cost me $85 plus tax. 1000 round case, btw.
I remember those days, and Norinco Ak's were around $300.00, we will not see that happen again!

Fixed it for you.
If it is Norinco ammo, it is worth more to a collector than it would be to a shooter.
Sorry, forgot to post, I am fairly sure it is Russian production.
Its prolly this right here.
1 x 640 rds - 7.62x39 FMJ 122 grain Ammo in Sealed Spam Can made in Russia by Ulyanovsk - $125.95
SKU: 762x39-uly-640
I got this from SGAmmo back last 8/11/2011. That was the going rate then. I have mine still unopened. And plan on keeping it that way. Got other ammo in cans I use for shooting, and that one (of many other spam cans) will be a rainy day use kind of thing.

While we are talking ammo values.....
What would some old Chicom green box steel core be worth? I think it is either Chinasports or Norinco marked.

Approx $8-10 per box of 20 based on auction sites.
Just before the current Prez was elected, Wolf was $80/1000 rds. However, I just picked up a case of 1000 rds Fiocci non magnetic ammo made in Hungary for $300. Nice ammo too. GARY N4KVE
