I can't answer your question, but if they are legit maybe prices are starting to stabilize.

They want $60/1000. I surely won't pay that. Last year prices were about $29-32/1000.

Butttt, I expect prices to go up, so when they get down to about $40/1000 I'll start to stock up.....again.

Used Google and there are a number of links saying Primers1 and Primers12 are scammers.

It looks like they have used several names Primers1 and Primers12 and maybe now CCI.Primers1. I would not touch it with a 50 foot pole but it is up to you. Here is a link to one with CCI.Primers1 it is a scam I am sure. Anytime you run into a gun or ammo sight that wants paypal and that type payment and no credit card it is going to be a scammer.

I have not paid anything. I was about to.
They have a real professional web site.
However, i am ever wary.
This is the place to ask before pulling a $300.00 pin.
Nice to have such helpful input.
Thanks guys.

Last year we had a free country and plenty of everything........That's in the past. Doubt we'll ever see "normal" prices on anything ever again.

Like I posted d in the Primer12 thread, the site is registered in Reykjavik, IS. As you can see it is an online scam. Stay away from them. Buyer beware.

I, too, was momentarily mesmerized by the promise of scads of primers. Then, I came to my senses and asked myself why they wanted NO credit cards; Zelle, Venmo, etc. only. I didn't bite.

I almost went for the same sort of scam last month:

RoyalCartidge?

Some good people here brought me back from the precipice.

Literally the very first word I saw when I went to the site:

AMMONITION

Various spelling and grammatical errors.

Flashing red lights all over the place.

At least that site is based in Phoenix, AZ and not in Iceland. A scam is still a scam but it's harder to identify when the site is here and not overseas.
