I can see, again, ANYWHERE, someone selling a $2,000 rifle for $4-5K, but trying to make a $10,000 profit off of an item is basically telling the world (fools or not) that you are a mentally deficient and morally bankrupt individual.
    I don't agree with the price gouging going on anywhere. However, if some idiot is willing to pay 12k for the rifle. More power to you. You know what they say about fools and money.. why Ronin I do believe we've had that discussion before.

    That's what I'm saying, the price gouging is a great way to tell if someone is an And yes, we've had that discussion before...

    It's a great way of narrowing down who I will and won't do deals with in the future thats for sure.

    Oh I've already made my list smaller than it already was. I'm a nice guy, I'm pretty generous.. but I don't take advantage of idiots or the ill prepared. Karma is a bitch..

    All I was trying to say what Monky was saying about idiots paying too much for stuff...It was more of a joke than anything. I do not agree with price gauging at all, and I dont want you guys to think i'm an d-bag, I AM an asshole, but not a d-bag.
    My EDC: Handcuffs, Bandana, and Ball Gag.

    If I'm ever at a party and the cops come to arrest people. Ill blindfold myself, throw the ball gag in, handcuff my hands, and hide in a closet. Police never arrest hostages!

    Everyone has their price. I'm not looking to sell any of my rifles, but if someone offered me a ridiculous amount of money for them today, I'd probably separate that fool from his money. Then, I'd be able to buy two or three times as many when the panic buying is over.
