Primers $100 per brick (1000).

I saw an interesting thing at a gun show here in Fort Wayne Indiana last weekend.
There was a man selling small and large pistol primers,,,,,
Are you ready for this?
$100 per brick (1000).
I am not kidding.
From what I heard there were a lot of people using less than complementary terms about his ancestry.
And he went home with what he brought with him.

Another place that is ridiculous is Gunbroker.com

There is actually one bid place so far, all I can say is PURE STUPIDITY

One of my local dealers had around 15000 on the shelf today for $60 a thou. I told him I needed primers, but not that badly yet.
