Lol.

The only reason he has ammo to sell is because someone else had it for sale and now he's selling it for a higher price to make up his gas and time money.  And now you have to pay more because he bought it solely to sell to you for a higher price(PS-this box is from Cabelas).

I sold several cases of 223 for $600. I only regret not saving it for now to get $1000.

Yup.

Had all sorts of people pissed at me on reddit bc I wouldnt bash a company for selling ammo at current prices. Made me laugh watching all the emotional downvotes.  None of them were welling to sell ammo at 2019 prices though.

At this point what difference does it make?

Are you gonna hop on your local board or the EE and sell for pre-panic prices? If you do, it's going to get snatched up by someone just like this and resold at today's prices.

Welcome to the shitty hybrid socialist-capitalist market.

Are you going to sell me some gas for 29 cents a gallon ? It was 29 cents a gallon when I was a kid mowing yards. There is no reason for this inflation. Price gougers

You see, theres a difference between business and bullshit jv economists.

Supply and demand works perfectly in business.
Jv capitalists stick their dick in it and tell everyone it's for their own good.  I would totally fuck with that guy.

IF THEY ARE SO SAVVY WHY ARE THEY PUNCHING SOMEONE ELSE'S CLOCK?

WHY ARE THEY NICKEL AND DIMING A SECONDARY SUPER VOLATILE MARKET?

WHY ARE THEY NOT KILLING IT IN THE REAL BUSINESS WORLD WITH ALL OF THEIR EDUCATION AND EXPERIENCE?

Same shit every panic, you would think that peeps would have learned to stock-up in the good times.

Hell, if I can still find someone dumb enough to sell me ammo at pre-panic prices damn right I'll buy it and flip what I don't need myself.....It's almost un-American to do any less.

I can’t help but laugh at guys that make all this effort to buy ammo and flip it for tiny amounts of profit.

All the time spent driving to stores and meeting people to buy ammo. Only to make like $50-75 before factoring in gas and your own time. Not even close to worth it. I suppose if I wasn’t a dickhead I’d feel bad for him in some way.

That's less than half the price of the same ammo from the only retailer that has any listed on ammoseek.  I don't know WTF you're bitching about.  Looks like a pretty good discount from what your retail choice is.

One can despise neckbeards without being a socialist.

Mostly I have a low opinion of them because it's clear they generally have a low opinion of themselves. What captain of industry waits in line at Academy with a grumbling herd of similarly unbathed scroungers hoping to score a couple 20rd boxes to resell? It's pathetic behavior. Their time has almost no value.

Wow. Not only am i going to make it harder to find ammo, I'll sell you the same ammo I took off the shelf for more!
FWIW that bulk pack still costs $48 here but availability is getting slim.

$100 for a 50rd box of 9mm sounds crazy today

But it might not sound so crazy next year, when $100 is worth $0 and 50rds of 9mm is still worth 50rds of 9mm

A week ago a friend offered me $200 for a pistol I didn't want to sell. He seemed upset that I didn't want to sell it. (4 inch Taurus 94 .22 in stainless) I sent him a link to the same pistol on Gunbroker for a "Buy it now" price of $500. It was the only one on the site. He bought a less expensive pistol (Heritage .22) at a local shop for less. He just wanted to get a .22 "for snakes and such."
I have Ammo and I have Primers. It has taken quite a bit of "wheeling and dealing" for me to get where I feel comfortable with my stores. I will not sell my stores. If I find more "deals" on ammo, etc.,  I will help out my friends, but  I will never again allow myself to get in a position where I don't have what I need.
I buy dies for every caliber I own. Then I buy powder, primers, cases, and projectiles. Every time I see ammo or components at a reasonable price I purchase them. I keep a list of the things I need in my shirt pocket.
Sometimes you have to pay to play. It's a sellers market now. Too bad, I was loving the salad days!

Communists? You are truly ignorant. Communists would simply confiscate it for redistribution. You have not seen anyone advocate that here. Think a good bit harder. Maybe you could spend your money on buying more mental horsepower.

LOL. They really do fit a mold though

It really is guys without a full-time job with always something to flip. I know a guy who neckbeards ammo and he's 35, lives at his parent's, 3 kids with 2 different women, overweight, and generally doesn't bathe.

If he ever needs help with something it's always some sob story about how he's broke. On the rare occasion he has something interesting to me, he NEVER offers me a deal on it. Same price he usually lists it for.

Always "broke" yet always has $300-400 on him in cash

The guy is a knob.  But I don’t understand why anyone who needs it so bad they are paying these prices didn’t stock up when it was cheap.  I think people want it just because it is scarce and will now pay anything and bitch about the cost, they are dopes too.
