I wouldn't really call them dirt bags, but yes I think $300 for a SOLGW stripped lower is insane. People are still buying them though.

I sold a bunch of my fort for reasonable prices, I’m not going to live long enough to shoot it all.
Or will I? Either way, I made some cash and hooked people up when there was nothing to be had. I’ve lived these cycles before. |

Prices have really come down in the last month. EE listings will be all over the place for the next few months. I just ignore listings that are priced too high. I'm not sure why you made a thread to brag how morally superior you are. It's a bad look for you.

You should go to the local gun shows/auctions.
I was at an estate auction a month ago and a RRA complete AR went for $2300. Most of the gun people I know are waiting on the storm to ride out. The people new to it are the ones paying the crazy prices. |

Don’t like it, don’t buy it.
Maybe they don’t need the money and don’t have to take a 50% bath so their meth dealer doesn’t break their kneecaps tomorrow at 4. |

A while ago I bought five sequentially serial numbered stripped lowers. They sat in my safe for I don’t know how long. During the latest panic I got motivated to buy a couple more parts and build two rifles out of spare parts. I still have three lowers left. I also never stopped shooting during the panic. I don’t know how many rounds I have left, but it’s many thousands in my five primary chamberings. I guess I should say six because I have at least 12,000 rounds of 22 Long rifle. I didn’t sell anything though. I did buy a case of 223 ammo on the equipment exchange at an inflated but not outrageous price, but that was The closest I came to eating and abetting the price gougers.

Companies use such methods all the time. I recall a presentation at DEFCON where a guy explained how he made a bot to buy cheap used cars before other companies could from some supplier with their bots and there was a bot war over these used cars. |
