Well, that didn't last long. All gone but shotgun. Which is very surprising actually, 209's have been "missing" from the market for so long now, I expected them to be the first to be gone...they must have received a large shipment. I have a notification supposedly set on all primers at Midway, but didn't get a notice. Yeah they never actually send out those notifications lol.. FYI, as of 4:28, they just added CCI LRP and CCI SPP. Edited to add that as of 4:35, they just added CCI BR-4 SRP. Get them while they last if you need them!

WOW! Oh, I totally tossed in $49 worth of other items to get the free shipping. Minimized the pain a little. Hit those BR4’s, I’m rich and didn’t know it Nice, rich man in the house! Yeah those are stupid high now. They were $99 back in April/May. Can't bring myself to pay $135 for them, when the non-BR ones are going for $75.

After receiving a notice one time, their computer clears it. Then you must hit notify me again for the next time they receive the product.

You should probably let go of the $35-$40 per 1000 primers. We will never see it again, NEVER!
Go watch "Die Hard". The scene where the LAPD officer is standing next to his car at the gas station. He looks at Nakatomi Plaza, and the gas price sign is in view. $0.87 for unleaded. No point in getting upset about it, it's just the way it USED to be.

Worth and value are different. Primers are not worth more than $0.04 each to me. One day when I am 90 years old and run out, they will be worth more to me.

It seems that the retail price now is around 80.00 to 129.00 per 1000. Cabelas here in town has recently had them for 129.00 and they may sit around for a day or two but someone eventually buys them. The value of my primers have now exceeded the value of all my guns. Better update my Will.

I have had 2 recent shipments of primers (CCI #400, CCI #450 and CCI #250) from dealers. Yes, pricing has gone up, but not into the $120-$140 per 1000 pricing. That is 100% price gouging.

At a LGS myself earlier this week and saw primers ranging from $120-180. I passed on them at that price but there was a guy there who bought a brick. I guess if you think about it, Midway is selling CCI's for $99/1000 (limit 1) when they have them. By the time you pay hazmat and regular shipping charges they are around $125, right? So......
