[QUOTE="ithrowicecubes, post: 3411170, member: 13475"] Hi, programmer working in big data here. Since there are no a widely recognized authorities (that I'm aware of) to standardize the conversion values, this might prove difficult. We have online retail and bulk ammo dealers, but they constantly adjust their prices according to the market based on their own individual profit margins. You also have to consider different regions throughout the U.S. have wildly different economies, costs of living, etc. Then you have to account for all the different types and qualities of ammo out there. Would you trade 1,000 steel cased 9mm 115gr for 1,000 M855s? Would you trade 1,000 9mm 124gr Gold Dots for the same M855s? Can people set their own trade values like a giant online swap shop where everyone has to entertain every other lowball offer? Lastly, building a system big enough that it could facilitate a market like this successfully would centralize the control of a big part of the ammo market into once place (company). Does that sound good to you? [/QUOTE]
