so i am surfing gunbroker.........
 

happened across a FN SCAR in 308, you know the ones that were EVERYWHERE before sandy hook for 2500 bucks. guy has bids up to 3700 and not hit the reserve but he offers a 'generous' buy now with free shipping and no CC fee at 4995.00

then goes on in the add on to description part about a new lower reserve...........almost sounds like he was begging you to buy it from him..........

wonder if he's one of the pathetic fools that paid out the 4500 to a distributor that had one or he has had it and is trying to make a double payday............

This is why I am taking a step away from private sales for a while because this is the type of guy that walked into the gun stores, bought a ton of stuff they never intended on keeping, and stuck it online at a jacked up pricewith "NIB" blasted all over the add.

same way on mags--you see the guys trying to sell a $8 USGI mag on GB for $100 ?!!

i could see a few going for $30 maybe--

if you hold out and watch the right vendors you'll see a few mags now and then for retail price + or - a few dollars.

you just have to be patient and be ready to buy when you see um.

cheaper then dirt had AR mags for the great deal of 129.99 :)

Yeah these morons that are paying so much or buying 30 cases of primers or shells really makes me laugh. Hooray capitalism - if they want to fuel the fire and succumb to the madness I guess "a fool and his money" rings true! lol
