    Market price is what somebody is willing to pay for it.
    Some people might be desperate for a gun now in fear of whatever. So they're willing to pay much more than you or I for a gun.

    We live in a free market economy and we don't have price controls on guns (thank goodness)!

    If we flip the situation around and you were the seller.
    How much do you want to receive for selling a glock 17?? Obviously you want to get the highest price possible, right? If not, then just put a buyitnow on gunbroker at a price of $100 or $200 or your purchase price ~$500
    If you want the receive the current "market clearing price", then you would sell it as an auction and get the highest price that the market is willing to pay.

        It retails for about $620 but then you have to pay tax and if you live in Cal getting a Gen 4 from a retailer is not possible so that alone might justify the extra $200 in cost
