    Default New to Gunbroker. Is it just me or......

    Do people on Gunbroker not really seem interested in selling their (stupidly overpriced) sh....stuff?

    Nothing is selling, pricing that's their issue. There are some proud owners of Century AK's with $1500 price tags. The purchaser should be proud showing it off at the range and other gun related meet n greets.

    Ak's seem to be the most over priced right now. I keep seeing ads ak with up grades for 1000$+. Its a pretty sad situation right now.

    It always takes longer for prices to come down than it does for them to go up.

    There's a lot of meatballs that bought the shit out of guns they didn't need or want when all the panic was going, now they need money and they're trying to get the panic prices they idiotically paid, back out of it. If you're looking for something and aren't in a huge hurry, bank your cash until right around thanksgiving when these idiots need to firesale them to get money to buy junk Christmas presents.

    A lot of stuff has come back to normal pricing again, or close to it. AR lowers are averaging less than $100 (forged nothing special lowers that is) PSA even has blems for like $59.99 again.

    There's some decent deals to be had on GB, but you have to wade through thousands of postings by people that don't really want to move their product to find them. You're not going to get any super good deals there though, there's too many people watching it for that about the best you can hope for is to find something you're looking for that your LGS can't get right now, for a reasonable/retail price.

    This. So much. I love shopping CL and internet forums around that time, deals for days.

    Found a pistol that was getting more difficult to find (Walther PPQ M1) on GB. The price was actually fair. Seller was a local gun store and I just bought it at the store.

    I'm pretty sure that there are examples where folks are in denial that the prices on ARs & AKs have come back to earth.

    Don't have to wait that long.... I just learned that one of my neighbor raided his kids college fund to buy firearms last year.... Now he has one starting CU in August and is trying to offload everything he has....
