    Angry Armslist jerks

    Huge influx of jerks on armslist over the past week. We all know about the ARs being sold at triple MSRP due to the panic and crappy 5.56 FMJ going for a buck a round, but I'm not talking about that. If you guys want to sell off some of your collection while the shelves are bare and the market is booming you go for it. Right on. Prices will probably be back to normal within a month or two.

    No, I'm talking about all these jerks selling guns without a price listed, "make me an offer" or "highest bidder." And then when a gun is available at a good price it is bought and immediately resold at more than double what was paid for it the day before . . . with the original pics. Saw an American Arms .22 sell for 125 yesterday, up for nearly 300 today. A few inexpensive handguns just sold on cologunmarket which I expect to be similarly marked up later tonight.

    Scumbags.

    Yep. People buying in these frenzies are going against this cardinal rule. Prices will drop again and they'll be the same ones complaining when they sell for a huge loss.

    ^^^ This. As I mentioned on another topic someone posted, "I'll sit in my man-cave, eat some pizza & drink a beer...wait for all this nonsense to blow over just as it did last time Obuttface was elected.

    When I sell a gun I never consider nor care that the person keeps it. I expect that most of us keep a base armory for ourselves and the rest are used as a quasi-savings account.
