I paid $75 for the same bucket last year at Cabela’s on sale.

Just like the prices on the reality shows on TV. Said they paid $ for it and [i][/i]they say it's worth $$$ so the profit is $$. In reality since they haven't sold it it's only worth what they paid for it. All that does is drive up the price for everyone else.
Common sense is a not a vegetable that does well in everyone's garden.

I paid $80 a few weeks ago at cabelas for the same bucket You have to remember though, if you read these forums enough, that bass pro and cabela's are the bad guys. Most places, including a lot of local gun stores, have jacked the prices up to outrageous amounts. That's why those same people line up every day outside bps and cabela's to buy them at the actual retail price to sell them for 5x more online or in their own shop. People are paying the outrageous amounts. I saw someone defending a local range that was selling a $15 box of 9mm for $75 because "at least they have it in stock for those that can't line up at a big box every morning."

Have followed Gunbroker pricing for the past few months. Most have been selling for 15 to 20 cents per round during that time (500 round bricks). To find out what they sell for, pick some items with low start prices, with bids, then put those on your watch list.
Folks making all this stuff seem to be sticking with normal distribution channels to support their retailers, so incentive remains for guys to sweep the shelves at retail price, then put it on gunbroker for 3X retail. Seems to be the case with several forms of ammo, plus reloading components like powder and primers.
Primers are sagging lower. Watched 1,000 LR primers sell for 10 cents each the other day. Once the gap closes to the point where there isn't much profit in reselling, the sweeping the shelves part may come to an end, at which time it may be possible to start finding and buying at normal retail again.
What surprises me most is guys seem to still be buying and SHOOTING this high priced ammo. Times being what they are, I'm mostly sitting on my stash till the storm passes and it's safe to come out to play again.

I am set. The only ammo I have bought is shotgun ammo. When I find it at Walmart prices I grab it. Mostly skeet,100, round cases for $21.00 I won't pay the inflated prices, don't need to. Walmart has not jacked prices. Timing is everything. I bought 1 bucket of those Remington Golden bullets a few years ago and less than impressed. Most all of my .22 LR is CCI and Federal, I have best luck with those.
you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!

Local shop has 9mm at $45.00 a box of 50. Found small pistol primers for $15.00 a 100. I’m not that desperate.

s. And they don’t have a way to filter to only see items that have actually sold. e. One can search sold items on Gunbroker

Bought 5 boxes of 9mm last weekend at Cabelas for $14.99 a box. $75 for 250 rounds. Those are bringing 50 to 75 dollars a box at local auction here. I am not shooting anything, I can't afford to.
