Local free ad rag called Uncle Henry's. (C-list doesn't allow firearms stuff)

I don't think I got my finger off the "post" key before I started getting texts. Guy on his way now.

I've got a crapload loaded up, I don't shoot much any more, I haven't touched any it in 2-3 years. Just one less thing to deal with if we move. All "come and get it" so I don't have to deal with packaging/shipping.

I said "Don't lowball me, I won't gouge you". Looked at price tags on the primers and powder I had and rounded up. Primers will go for .05 each or $50 a thousand which is way less than they go for now (if you can find them) and a little little more than I paid for them back in the day.

Same on powder.

Need to look up prices on boolits. All my brass is used (some of it REAL used) so I'll wing it on that stuff.




Be careful when following the masses. Sometimes the M is silent.

Supply and demand. You should be conservative on your pricing.

It's great to give a fellow shooting enthusiast a good deal on something you aren't using like you used to. Also realize the values have changed since your original purchase.

Hope the transaction goes well.

Cheers~

It is always good to purge things you don’t need and I am all for passing along a good deal to people. With that said, what you paid should not be your benchmark price. If current market price is more than you paid it would still be a great deal for someone buying today if you sold a few points below market price. Don’t give it away if you don’t have to.

It is crazy. I just sold a case of 5.56 and a case of 7.62 within an hour, and within a day, respectively, after posting a paper ad on the bulletin board at my club.

$50/1000 on primers is still a pretty good deal right now.

As a recent recipient of some good reloading stuff as I get started up, many thanks for keeping your prices realistic.



I'm gonna vote for the funniest frog with the loudest croak on the highest log.

I have a fish gill Glock 19 on the local AZ new version of Backpage. I get so many texts about it. Every single time, as soon as we're about to arrange a meeting place and I ask on text if they're a non-prohibited state resident, they either answer only half the question or stop communication.

Well, there's a quick $600 and I still have all my boolits, dies and presses left!
