My memory is getting a little fuzzy with age but I seem to remember people asking some astronomical prices then. What's the most you had to pay, got paid, or saw someone else pay during the recent unpleasantness?

Saw some gun stores charging $2 a round for 5.56 stuff. Heck, I sold some XM193 stuff for .90 a round. And by some, I mean 10K rounds worth. Lol.

It was HELL getting .38 ammo last time there was a shortage because everyone has a old .38 that was passed down, but since then I hit the Pawn Shops they were giving it away. I was there to buy it.
I sold 2 Remington 22 lr bucket of bullets 1440 rounds for $350 each! They were on consignment for less than 2 days at a local gun shop.
I might be crazy, but I seem to recall some people asking $50 for a 100 round case of Minimags.
Wow!
I sold about 4-5 thousand rounds of 7.62x39 for about $1/round a few years ago when everyone panicked about steel case imports being banned. Restocked like 5 months later when it was back to 40cent/round. People are dumb.
2013 was the craziest. Selling during panics is always funner than buying.

I remember seeing a box of .410 target loads for $45. Might have been AA's, I can't remember
