    Scalping

    Afactor12345 posted this for sale.

    "Up for sale is a sealed brick of 5000 BR-4 primers. $1100 plus shipping. Will ship same day if purchased before 3pm pacific time. Will take PayPal, Vemno, zelle or other preferred method of payment."

    I banned him permanently but if you want to give this scalper $220.00 per brick of primers I am sure you can find him somewhere else. Maybe Cheaper than Dirt or LG Sales.

    And I don't care if someone thinks he has a right to try to rip someone off like this. He can go to another site and rip them off. This BS is one of the reasons we can't find primers. They are bought up by guys like this who turn them for four times what they paid.

    This sort of thing really pisses me off.

      We are in a pandemic. If there is still a "state of emergency" I wonder if price gouging laws can be used on SOBs like this?

          Thank you, I wholeheartedly agree. On other forums, I just add them to the ignore/blocked list. I will never do business with them. Sportsman should be trying to help each other out, not screwing each other over.

                I've been spending an hour a day for 3 months or more. Ever since I thought I might run out. Should have been there yesterday a couple of times. Other than that, no luck. I guess it ain't that big a deal till I find some bullets though.

                    I'm on multiple forums and one forum has a reloading trade thread where members trade all types of reloading with each other. It has been an easy way to find, and trade, for things you need. They also have a gun trade thread, and,,,,,,,,,whiskey/bourbon trade thread. Amazing.

                          Hope you guys don't take this the wrong way but it makes me wanna throw my own feces. I've got my hands on some brass powder and bullets but no primers.

                            BF:

                            I think that primers are getting slightly easier to find at gun stores that won't rip you off.

                            That said, there is no question you can buy primers at the price this POS was demanding on a number of web sites.

                            I just won't let slugs like that try to rip off people here is all.

                              At first I applauded you for doing this, but after talking to my GF about it, she said that banning him was akin to "cancel culture" and censorship (neither of which we need to do, as the demoncrats have already mastered this). The reality is that you should have publicly shamed him on this forum for trying to screw his brothers, and then let the Forum disgrace him to the point where he left on his own.
                              I thought about selling my weapons back to the government, but after a thorough background check it was determined that the buyer has a long history of violence and is mentally unstable. Therefore could not pass NICS.
