Capitalism fail

1. Bwahahah! Thanks caleb, I needed a laugh after my last meeting.

   I’ve been griping about paying $0.40 a round.

2. It ain’t April Fool’s Day yet. I thought that link would go to a site about government purchasing.

3. Please note the droves of folks bidding on this “bargain.”

4. Ridiculous. That’s just plain greedy.

5. His wife probably told him to get rid of some of that ammo in the closet. 😉

6. typo?

7. From what, $666.66? That’s still absurd.

8. Gold plated .45 brass?

9. Any chance he just hit an extra zero? $100 for that would be a decent price.

   1. That’d be a solid theory, except the actual auction price is $999.99

10. Hey, it’s a capitalism win for him if some moron pays him.

11. His other auctions have non-insane prices. I’m guessing either this one was a joke, or it was a typo from $99.99.

12. Where do you see $1000.00 on there? All I see is “0 bids” and “Started at $147.00”.

    At just under $0.50 a round, that’s actually cheaper than what the local range has been asking for the last year or so by about $0.15 per round.

    I’d still never pay that. But I don’t see anything there that ridiculous.

13. It looks like all the attention on the auction site caused him to fix the auction. I apologize for calling him stupid.

14. Still expensive. See:
    Ammoseek.com
    Ammoengine.com

    Steel cased (Wolf/Tula) is not terrible. Brass cased can be had for under $0.40 after shipping.

15. I absolutely will not shoot steel cased Wolf .45 ACP in my guns.
