$120 for 1000 plus tax, shipping and hazmat.
Not great but in most stores I find them for around $14.99 per tin so not horrible.

Guess I should add a link.
Sportsmans Warehouse periodically gets them in for $5.99/100 (tin). That tells me that eventually the $120/thou is gonna drop. The $5.99 price could go up but it tells me the wholesale price is way lower than what most are being sold for. It has to be less than $5.99 per tin as Sp Warehouse isn't gonna sell them at a loss.

With 16+revolvers, I've been called the Imelda Marcos of cap&ball.

And they are sold out. I knew it wouldn't last long.
Twelve cents a shot for a thousand? That is not normal and is not a good sign going forward. Who would pay that price unless they had a government expense account?
It takes me a few hours to make 100 caps. I would gladly pay $12 since my time is worth much more than that. And CCI fit in my cappers. Home made doesn't.
With the scarcity of caps I suspect the sales of percussion revolvers has dropped considerably. Why buy 'em if you can't (or can't afford to) shoot 'em?

The local sportsman's warehouse, cabellas and black sheep haven't had black powder firearms to sell for months. Don't know if they're being bought like mad, or what. As for percussion caps, lots of RWS musket caps and nothing else
And ours has plenty of ML guns but few caps.
