People… people. Ar-15s from PSA are $350-400 again. STOP listing your used guns for $700. JUST. STOP.

No disrespect here but I think you were trying to make a point about gouging not thievery. I once bought an old Volvo 240 sedan from a lady who had busted the rear window with the lawnmower and a rock. She asked if I would give her the cost of the tires she just put on it. That was about $300.00. Paid her, jumped it off and headed home. I don't know what the mobile glass guy had in the window he put in but he charged me right at $250.00 and it literally took him less than five minutes to install it. Did he make too much profit? I don't know and don't care. He had what I needed and got it done at a price I could afford so again I didn't care. Anyway those old "Brick Volvos" have a cult following. I listed it and sold it to the first guy that showed up for $3K. Was that too much profit? I don't know for sure but I don't think so. The point is that you make all you can while you can because you might go backwards on the next deal. Profit is not a bad word.
Wish I still had my '74 144 GL

Would you have negotiated the price?
 
Budget is a good way to put it, but I'd put that same label on Ruger and even Smith for some models.

The simple truth is that PSA is one of the larger gun manufacturers in the US. They pump out a lot of stuff at a reasonable price.

Will they have hiccups? Sure, but at the end of the day they are doing Gods Work by making firearms affordable for everyone, which is actually in their mission statement.

Same reason I love HiPoint as a company. I have a couple of their firearms, but I really respect the fact that they make the guns they do in the way they do it.

If you want trash ARs, look at Bear Creek or Anderson. But if you watch SOAR YouTube you will see that even Gucci AR companies put out crap once in a while.
Don't forget Delton, DB (Diamond Back), ATI, etc., etc.
