I don't like the new pricing any more than the next guy, and haven't had to pay them yet because I stocked up over the last few years. I would NEVER pay the scalping $80-$100 on gunbroker.
Please keep in mind that with the enormous increase in demand and cost of factory-loaded ammunition, paying a couple cents more per primer still makes reloads a VERY viable alternative to searching for and spending a ton on a box of name-brand stuff (if you can even find it).
Although your price per shot is up a couple of cents, (primers in the $30-45 range/1000) it's still a good way to go and a lot of fun and satisfaction is to be had working up loads for your guns.
