PMAG Ranger Plates in high demand?

[pneutin]

Ok so I understand PMAGs are in high demand, but are the PMAG Ranger Plates really sought after too? There are some ads in the classifieds that sell them for double the retail price. And most websites I've visited all have them in stock. Am I missing something?

Stupid people buy from gouging sellers... that's it...

Magpul PMag or USGI ranger plates are very available... on websites or direct from Magpul

demand for anything magpul is high right now and people are trying to cash in it seems more power to them though its a free market.

and the fact that magpul is slow to get product out is another factor.

Not true. Some of the Magpul's stuff are, some are not.... ranger plates are NOT.

It is VERY available if you buy direct from Magpul and they ship pretty fast too! I got my stuff from there in just a couple of days.

Ranger plates are great, I ordered mines from magpul too without any problems.

Yea that's what I don't get. I could maybe understand a UBR stock selling for 50% more, but PMAG Ranger Plates for 100% more?

they are selling for double the price? where???

[Jwood562]

anything magpul on ebay is selling for outrageous prices. I cannot say with out guilt thatI am cashing in and selling easily availbe items for 150-200% their retail cost on ebay.

a private seller big difference, demand drives the price......Jicko where are they in stock? Everywhere I have checked is 4-5 weeks out.

op, place an order with one of our venders and wait in line. Addax seems to be the cheapest at the moment. Don't forget your CG members discount.

I got 3 black 2 weeks ago. They're in stock constantly. I've seen this markup stupidity here as well.

I don't think you read my original post very carefully. I don't need ranger plates--I'm just surprised that people would mark them up 100% of the original price when they:

1. are not in apparent demand
2. are in stock from multiple vendors

nope, not missing anything FUD-farmers they all are

The only things Magpul hard to get are some stocks, UBR in particular and PMAGS, everything else is easy

I see plenty of CTR, MOE, and PRS around....
