Selling Primers

I am not sure if this is the proper place to post this but I have an excess of primers I doubt I will ever get around to using. I have 5,000 Wolf small rifle primers I bought a few years ago and have more than I need.

I would like to list these on one of the online auction sites but am not sure how the shipping works on something like this. Do you have to put a hazmat fee on the selling price or an ORM-D on the box? The ones I looked at on GB have shipping prices below what I thought the Hazmat fee would be. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for the link. As usual I asked first and then did some online looking. I looks like you need an explosives license just to start so I guess my plan to sell is out the window. Oh well...

Post them locally on your gun clubs bulletin boards

A couple of sellers on GB suggested the same thing which sounds like the best idea of all.

Somebody will come and snatch them right up since the latest panic has hit primer availability pretty hard. Especially if you’re not price gouging.

No such thing as gouging; the buyer sets the actual price; if someone wants to pay $1/primer, and does so willingly, then it is what it is and the marketplace set the price.
