Saw a fellow local shooter on FB looking for glock17 mags... I have a bunch of em, so I offered em up at MSRP... To which he offered me three pmags for seven Glock factory mags. I kept my lol to myself and countered 3 used pmags per G17 mag (just to egg him on), and he let forth a string of obscenities that's probably still hovering over the tri-state area. A good time was had.

I have listed a few uppers for higher prices, but a lot less then they go for at the Gunshows and GB. They have sold quickly and I do not feel that I am gouging anyone. I also ask folks to PM me if they have ay questions - concerns. Just trying to be fair to myself and the buyer ...... and trying to avoid resellers .... (Just my 2 Cents)

So let me get this straight, I guy sell a gun for $1,000 that a month ago was selling for $500 and he is wrong for doing that. We live in a supposedly free market economy which says the prices are set by the buyer not the seller. I say more power to them. Also, if supply dips and demand increases so does prices.

One poster mentioned what about when gas prices rise. The prices are set by speculators and is not necessarily controlled by the buyers or sellers, but an outside influence.

Speculators are buyers... They buy futures. The price is set by the price they pay

I can't imagine the guy being upset since you were only asking MSRP! Your a hell of guy!
