Can't really fault the guys selling the PMags...they started them at a penny. Yea and that’s really not that bad either they’re $12.80 on midway or were last week. With current bid at $13.70 I wouldn’t say that is gouging and as you said they started at 1 penny.

Yeah I realized after doing some 3rd grade math that they're about on point for price, the colt though...

Can't really fault the guys selling the PMags...they started them at a penny. That's what i did after Sandy Hook, let the market drive the price. Zero reserve, penny start, most sold in the $60-75 range.
Just to make sure that it is done thoroughly, I go both ways.

The dude w/the Glocks now has a p365 for $900. I bought one a few months ago for $348 delivered + $15 for FFL transfer. His username is 'soap' & yet he's very dirty.

Zero reserve, penny start, most sold in the $60-75 range. Same here...sold a metric ton of PMags along with stripped receivers, SCAR 16 and SCAR 17 rifles. Buyers drove the price up.
I am still looking for the perfect apron, one with reinforced knee areas would be perfect.

So let me make sure I understand the THF perspective:
1. Perfectly OK to sell something at an exorbitant price if the “market drives the price up” even if it is a “necessity” such as a firearm or ammo.
2. THF’ers are too stupid to price check things in the classifieds, so we have to look out for the imbeciles.
3. People that sell items that the THF collective determines are too high in price are perfectly OK to call out and shame, despite the clear THF rules to the contrary.
Did I miss anything??

You easily observed that too, huh? Then obviously rules only apply to some. Way ta go!

Im really surprised that hi-cap magazines haven't sold out everywhere by now. I am sure they have at local stores but still available online with little to no mark up.

From a business standpoint, it makes sense. They either have to jack up prices, or they're going to be a business with no product.
