Post 1986, when large quantities of surplus military and foreign commercial ammunition was again allowed in the United States, ammo prices started a protracted decline.
In 1983 I was paying upwards $20 a box of 50 for American Eagle 9mm, about the cheapest I could find, and the selection wasn't exactly great.
By 2000 I was finding that I could buy a similar 9mm cartridge for as little as $5 for 50.
