    .38 Auto (ACP)

    OP - you need to read, understand and agree to the Marketplace Forum rules, specifically as regards to auctions, and try again. QBG

    I have a very rare batch of 163 rounds of .38 Auto (ACP) for sale. Typical price on the internet, when you can find any, start at $1/round. If interested, make me an offer I can't refuse. Otherwise, I just have to find some of these rare and cool .38 ACP pistols at the gun show!

      9) For Sale threads must have a price listed.
      If you are unsure of what you want to ask for an item list a price you think is slightly higher than what you want to get and simply state, 'willing to negotiate'. You can also add 'OBO' (Or Best Offer) after your projected price. While this means you are willing to entertain offers it is NOT a license to auction, neither does it mean that it is acceptable to take a higher offer after you have agreed to a price and a deal. The listing price must be one the seller would accept if a buyer were to make an offer at that price. Editing the original post to raise the price after an offer at that price has been made creating a 'hidden auction' is unacceptable. The seller may accept an offer higher than the price listed, either from motivated buyer or due to unique circumstance such as special shipping requirements providing no offer or deal has been made at the listed price prior to the higher offer.

      Good luck.

        Price is listed:
        start at $1/round. If interested, make me an offer
        Also, due to the nature of the ammunition that is only used in a few Curio & Relic guns, this forum is appropriate.

          What make these ammo so rare? Can you provide more detail or pictures?
          Thanks

            You are quoting an example price, not setting one.

            Rule 9 is copied straight from the Rules of the Collectors Exchange.

            Mods. can dump thread if they do not like it, up to you to fix or not.

            Again, good luck.

                No... This is not a "for sale" forum. The correct subforum as allready mentioned would be the Collector's Exchange as you have already been told multiple times....

                You are off to a good start...

                  You can't find these ammo at the store or online. There is not market price. Gunbroker has a few once in a while that goes from $1 to $5 a round from what I saw.

                  I'm not bent on selling these. I don't have a gun to shoot 'em (yet) and thought I may do someone a favor. But if it's too much of a hassle and the only replies I get are from finicky people throwing the book at me, I'd rather buy myself a nice Colt M190x at the gun show. I appreciate your attempt to look after me, but I'm no spring chicken, I think I can handle it. Thanks for the "warning", though...

                  Please, serious gun collectors replies only.

                    What the heck is going on with all y'all coming out of the woodworks all pissy at my post? This is collector's ammo. No one's interested in these in the whole sale ammo section. Only people who care about old guns, like the ones browsing this curio & relic, are.
                    I don't get all the drama here
