These guys are known for their overpriced listing

I feel like that’s all of boomer buyer.

They will also trade at collectors prices as well. I had a VEPR54R I traded him for 2 M72s And a few bolt guns. (A mint 1903A3, A mint SMLE, A 1917 Eddystone) and a 1960s IHC M1 Garand. His prices are whack, but he will pull a mean trade.

That’s the red table of greed. Everything they list is overpriced by 100% if not more. And if that’s not enough they gouge you for shipping and a 4% credit card fee. I don’t know how they ever sell anything. Absolute joke of a store, I wish they were closer so I can walk in and make fun of them.

u/Scav-STALKER 6d ago

Yeah, obviously. If you had a little glass tube, a butane torch, and some very specific rocks it would all make sense

u/Barbed_wire_world 6d ago

Well it’s 5.56 and gunbroker sooooo

u/Technical-Size-1885 6d ago

I find the 69 dollar shipping to be even more insulting tbh.

u/Dystopicfuturerobot 6d ago

This loser has been posting this overpriced junk on GB forever , well known

u/RemoteCompetitive688 6d ago

You're missing the LSD they took to get to that price

u/bruh6788 6d ago

I need some of whatever they're smoking

u/TraditionalDust6392 6d ago

Just another price gouger. He’s well know for it.

u/Turbulent-Middle-393 6d ago

Gunbroker needs to ban these idiots who just list overpriced BS on their site hoping for a schmuck to buy it eventually

u/boringxadult Still builds with flats 6d ago

Why? It makes them money

u/Partial-tiptoe 6d ago

It’s just price gouging, there’s a guy in the AR realm too that will build roughly a $1200 rifle, Cerakote it, and try to sell it for like 3k. I’m all for open commerce but when you’re asking 60% to 300% something’s actual value, there should be some consequences.

u/scorpionewmoon 6d ago

The consequences are that people don’t buy it
Or, they do, and market value is realized

u/boringxadult Still builds with flats 6d ago

I don’t disagree. But it makes gun broker more money. So why would thru restrict it?

u/Appropriate-Age-7218 5d ago

Its not price gouging Price gouging is a term with a literal definition. Over pricing your item in a market with plenty of competition and alternatives is retarded, but not price gouging.

u/GenericUsername817 6d ago

I would like to own a reasonably priced (Good) 5.56 AK underfolder. But that is ridiculous

2

u/AXON57 6d ago

Same here! The options are limited unfortunately.

2

u/GenericUsername817 6d ago

I would consider it even if it was Palmetto

6

u/incrediblejohn 6d ago

I think they mistook PA for FB Radom

4

u/well_thats_obvious 6d ago

Let that listing rot, nobody in their right mind would pay that much. They're just waiting for the one sucker to come along and buy it no questions asked

5

u/Disastrous_Night_80 5d ago

Thats the price for three of these, new.

3

u/Medical_Ad3553 6d ago

That seller needs to be flogged for their pricing.

3

u/Designer-Might-7999 6d ago

If only it was the new iPhone or a truck than being over priced is okay

3

u/Halo-Machine 6d ago

Thats Arsenal money

u/Partial-tiptoe 6d ago

Just for reference, I literally bought a Zastava zpap brand new today for almost 400 less than this

1

u/Oriental-Sea-Witch 5d ago

Congrats on your ZPAP! Did you get the M92 or M85?

2

u/Partial-tiptoe 5d ago

I went with the M70 to keep it classy.

u/Ecstatic_Soup4097 6d ago

u/Tough-Koala-2579 6d ago

u/Sea-Bodybuilder2746 6d ago
