some were $400/1K. And they will sell out I'm afraid.

Contact the Attorney's General office in their state about price gouging. I know the folks on here dont want to turn the law on ammo retailers, but people like this are not your friends. They could be doing their part to end this foolishness, however they choose to take advantage of the same people that have made their business a success.

Make a mental note of who they are. When the smoke clears never do business with them again. Tell all your friends about them too.

I saw a keg of varget at a gun shop for $499.99
Primers were $22 per hundred. They said if they didn’t ask that the scalpers put them on line and the guy that was out still wouldn’t have any.
I also heard a bottle of beer is $9 on the Strip in Vegas and mix drinks $14-20 a glass. Breakfast for two $60.
It’s gotta correct itself at some point. But it’s beyond ridiculous now.
Lumber and steel still climbing every day.

One could argue that setting a price higher than anyone will pay is doing thir part to end the nonsense if people stop buying then shelves fill up and manufacturers catch up on back orders

Maybe they had to pay $400 to get them from the distributor and they're only making like fifty bucks on the deal.

At what price point do you consider it gouging? You could probably consider some people selling them here gougers as well. Where do you draw the line in the sand? Do you call your AG on sellers on 24hc?

I called LG Outdoors customer service and asked why they were asking so much when other companies were asking $59. They didn't have a reason. I told them I wouldn't shop there anymore.

IMHO, anything more than double is gouging.

Went to a sportsman auction and the prices quoted here are pale to what some people were bidding. You could buy inflated priced ammo for less than what an equal amount of primers sold for.

Is this a joke? What can the attorney general do about the price of reloading components? No crimes are being committed no matter how high the price of reloading components go.

If someone else is asking $59, why are you messing with LG Outdoors?

Perhaps because the $59 place has none in stock?

Midway gets their stock in spurts. When they're available (earlier this week), their price is $59.
