I have some old 9mm ammo that was given to me that i want to sell. I no longer have any 9mm's and when i did I only bought pmc ammo, on the cheap. I cant find a point of reference online for prices, because everything is inflated, but I want to sell the ammo to a friend at PRE PANIC prices. can someone please help me out?

Says Midway sells it about 21-22 bucks a box for the Speer for 20 rounds.

The prices on Midway are "pre-panic" - they've just been listed as "out of stock / no backorder" for weeks now.
Both of those varieties were about $1/round in the 20-round boxes. They were cheaper in the 50-round boxes, though - about $25-$30 per box this time last year. |

Considering the current (non)-availability of ammo, I'd think he'd be happy to get premium self-defense 9mm for $.60 each.

Just taking a quick look on Gunbroker, 100-round quantities of the Speer 124gr 9mm ammo have been selling for $80-105 in the past few days. The Hydra-Shok has been going for almost that much.

Yeah, 60 bucks is fair because the ammo isn't just standard target ammo, it's premium defensive stuff.

I was thinking $3 a box would be fair and just to be nice I would offer to pay you $5.

I wouldn't sell the ammo to a friend. I'd give it to him.

Pre-shooting this ammo was ~ $1 a shot at Walmart. Frankly, any less than $75, you are giving it away. Maybe $50-$60 to a friend.

Is there any possibility that you might buy 9mm pistol in the future? If so, keep the ammunition. It should keep going up in value.

Re: help me with prices, trying to sell 9mm ammo at fair price
I'd give it to your friend if he's a good friend. If not sell it to a friend cheap. $15 a box?
