There's an M&P 15-22 pistol currently on Gunbroker that, with over 4 days left, has already been bid up to $1,125.00. Are those really that rare or is this simply a case of bidders with more money than brains?
 
Look at all these morons paying 2-3 times more for a ak47 or ar-15 because they are scared of the ban. I hope the ban gets shut down and all this ying yangs are stuck with rifles they overpaid by 200 percent, lol.

Shill bidding at it's finest.

The AR buying frenzy has already cooled off here, to some degree because of availability, but regardless.

15-22's are still plentiful.
 
One ended yesterday 27-2 five inch barrel wood case 99%. Bids reached 1325.00, reserve not met.
 
Regarding any ban, who knows? There are politicians out there in safe seats that would always vote to ban firearms, there are senators in at risk seats that may be afraid of the clout of the NRA. The house may be reluctant. A lot depends upon whether or not there are more mass shootings. My guess is if the Senate doesn't think they can get it through the house they may be reluctant to vote to ban guns. It may never come to a public vote.

When on GB, as well as FeeBay, I only look at "Buy It Now" sellers and prices and ignore the gougers, scammers (minty fools), and dopes.

Remember, in the past many of the items on FeeBay that sold for "hundreds of thousands" of dollars were bid up by 14-year olds who knew they could never be held responsible.
 
Sell into the panic. You did buy extra for this, huh?

I had a guy accuse me of gouging when an auction ran away from reality in the last minutes. I started the auction at a penny - no reserve.

I've gotten the hate mail too, when I put a lot of Cutts chokes on Ebay. Got one screwball selfrighteous resentful kook banned. Just because a collector wanted a 28ga set of chokes more than anyone else.
