I was reading my local want ads paper.
In the recreation section I saw an add for primers. Didn't say what primers but was selling them at $100 per 100.
I wasn't sure if a typo or not but even at $100 per thousand is much to much.

If they're going for $1 each I might have to cash in. I'd have enough for a decent-sized down payment on a house, even in this market.

I was at a gun show yesterday and primers were for sale by table holders at $10 per slide of 100.
I think I might have had to call him just to check if he was serious, or if that was a typo.
If your willing to pay a $100.00 a hundred for primers, I'v got a bridge I can sell you for a very reasonable price, but you have to hall it away.
Several months ago I saw primers going for 200 to 250 a thousand at a large gun show & yes I saw several people buying them
Lately they have seem to come down to 100 to 125 a thousand, still to high for me, might sell some of mine too
I have to be honest, at the prices I was seeing, I was beginning to consider selling a bunch of primers and powder, and keeping just the bare minimum, and cutting way back on my target shooting. At $200 per 1000 of primers, and $50 a pound powder, I figured I could part with $15,000 worth of reloading stuff.Quote:

They also had more bullets on the shelf and a lot more ammunition.

I did that. Down to about 60k primers. Will not go any lower on inventory. Will buy back as prices level back out.Quote:
