[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 316699, member: 412"] It's hard to see but a double-edged sword. Prices like that from retailers are the ONLY thing that's going to stop the secondary market from doing the same thing. Retailers whether brick and mortar or online aren't getting any manner of volume so they need to make their $$ on higher margins. Does a retailer like 1less linked above charging "Grunbroker/scalper" prices get us all back to normal supply/pricing sooner? My sincere hope is that OEM's for components don't decide that a new market has been set and instead of $30-$50/1K, primers (and all other reloading components being sold on the gray market at significantly higher prices) should now cost such that retailers need to sell them for 3x-5x that. 6.5Creed, 143gn ELD-X Hornady Precision Hunter loaded ammo, 100rds for $600 "Buy It Now" pricing on Gunbroker right now. If that continues, how does Hornady not see that and think, well, instead of $35-$40/box retail pricing, we're gonna charge such that retailers have to sell it for $80-$100/box? Same for $300-$400/1K primers. Sooner or later CCI, Fed, Rem, and Win are going to decide they want that margin for themselves.........
