Don't expect to see any more.

I just sold off some SA to buy some Portugese. I sold the SA for more then the Port cost so the sale went quite well. The SA buyer was happy also as he was going to flip it for more then I sold it for.
I love bartering............ Now back to your question, I believe AIM had a SMALL supply of it tho it's probably gone so you might want to carefully watch their site to see if it pops up again. |

$90?
You gotta be kidding? AIM had them for like $55... I know I saw that just a day or two ago when someone mentioned it here... guess I'll have to keep checking in. God damn UN keeping cheap ammo outta the hands of US citizens... screw those bastards. Why do I get the feeling Obama will be more than happy to be the UN's bitch when it comes to arms and ammo for his fellow citizens?

I obviously understand that things go up, but at a 40-50% price increase from a couple weeks ago it's just not that exciting of a deal anymore... I'm sure you understand. And I do have some myself, I just want more cause my box spring isn't made out of battlepacks quite yet.
