I think my first post was not clear, and I apologize. I flag this guy because he is a jerk. and I will keep doing it. I would not normally flag others trying to sell gun parts, ammo or reloading stuff. In fact, I will contact one occasionally to steer them to our local Spokane Guntrader classifieds site, where he will be more than welcome. But of the ones I have contacted, not one has ever responded to my email. Oh well.

I am not sure why anyone would be bothered by my action to this particular sale.

Not a problem at all Tom. We all will agree to disagree sometimes.

We in this fight together but we will all end up choosing our own roads to get there I suppose.

Hey John,

Did you see the guy on Guntrader selling the BR-4 CCI bench rest primers for $200 per 1000? Two weeks ago I bought 500 (the limit) from Black Sheep in Coeur d’alene for $6.99 per hundred. Normal prices are out there if you’re persistent but I too get absolutely frustrated at these price gougers on SGT. I thought the $6.99 price was a tad bit high but benchrest primers do cost more than standard.

(SGT is a local gun selling/trading web site that John and I are active on.)

Cheaper than Dirt did the same price gouging back in the 2012 ish shortages/price nonsense. I wrote them off then and continue to do so. When I google an item for sale and CTD shows up I never click their link.

I am mad at all the people that bought Tesla stock at $40 and sell it for $800. No wait I’m mad at myself for not buying at $40.

I remember 2012 all to well, this is why I grabbed a brick or two every time at the LGS. I'm set for life !

I bought 20 bricks of Blazer over 2 years ago, still never opened a single box. 8 years ago I bought 16 bricks for $16 each from dunhams when they had a sale, I'm still shooting that batch but starting to run low and sooner or later I'll have to open up my stash. many years ago I bought 12 bricks of Federal and I still have all that stowed away, I guess I could be in some serious cash if I sold it, but my ammo is worth more than $ to me and yes I do shoot a lot.

That is wayyyy too high for that type on ammo. Norma TAC 40gr standard velocity and CCI mini mags are going for about .30 cents per round NEW... A far cry from 20 months ago when they went for .8 a round, delivered to my front door.
