          Those are usually posted by a noob who wants a ridiculous amount of money for a firearm. Most of them should be banned and nobody with less than 200 pounds should be allowed in the marketplace. Only honorable and honest traders

              What... that's obscene. LOL

              No one is going to pay that much. Not a chance. The invisible hand of the free market will work. I would honestly feel like a complete scumbag if I listed guns for those prices and some sucker actually bought it, but I have at least an ounce of integrity.

                Who chooses how much is "ridiculous" for the firearm? If we do that we will have to have price police that will judge if they are charging too much or not. I don't think that is a good solution. Post count isn't good either because sometimes people create an account just to sell a gun they have and they aren't a scammer.

                I say let the free market work and people need to keep their eyes open.

                  Looks like it got pulled.

                  Or maybe somebody bought them already.

                    Most people on CG who posts "no thread crapping" in their posts are also the ones that bump their posts to show that "it is sold"

                      If someone will pay a crazy price, that's up to them. It's un-American (and Full Karen) to dictate what others can or can't do.

                      Right now there are people desperate for ANYTHING that will go bang, they are perhaps in fear for their life or that of their family (justifiably!). The news just had a thing on people going all out on "prepping" because of the uncertain times we find ourselves in...

                      If there are people willing to trade crazy amounts of money for "peace of mind", who are we to judge harshly? EVERY ONE OF US has traded some sums to have our "peace of mind" (and yes, the toys we wanted), we just hopefully had better timing.

                      I'm seeing prices that are making me look through my "toy boxes" and at least consider if there's anything I wouldn't miss for the "right" sum, and I know I'm not the only one... prices need to go up some more, but it's getting closer!

                        If I have something you want, and I have the only one available, the "market" is whatever we come to agree on. Someone offered me 2-3000 for a vehicle that's worth 7-8000, they thought my price was crazy, I thought their offer was crazy, isn't that crazy? But that's how Markets and Marketplaces work. No one is forced to sell or buy if they don't like the prices!

                        I am shocked that my browser apparently is unique in having a "back" button conveniently linked to a button on my mouse....
