What's worse, Flippers or Low-Ballers?

The problem ain't the "flippers", it's the stupid ****er buying what the "flipper" is selling. Everyone one here that has snatched up an item, knowing they could sell it at an inflated price is doing the same thing as the "flippers"?

Well said my friend. If people would not pay outrageous prices they would go away.

And to top it off, the worst of all is the people think AKs, SKSs and Mosins are worth more than a few hundred at best. 2 years ago you couldn't hardly give those junkers away (maybe not all the mosins). If the old crap is really where its at why don't people drive pintos and cougars everywhere? Cause they got crushed when no body wanted em...

My problem with flippers is that they bought up all the ammo leaving us normal people with empty shelves. Shooting is supposed to be a recreation sport but when the shelves are empty people have two choices, pay inflated prices or don't shoot. The people who were in this for a profit and created a shortage that made it hard for the normal person to take his children shooting were hurting this sport. It was very frustrating to see that. I gave away several boxes of ammo to people who said they really needed it because I want people who want to have fun with it to have it.

Yea I guess you could reason that people that either got caught with their pants down or those that got more money than time and/or sense are feeding the flippers but when you get people that just go to Walmart or Cabelas or anywhere else where theres ammo in stock at a decent price and buy it all up what that does is creates a panic mentality. Then normal people go into those stores and they don't see any ammo anywhere and they come on here and they see flipper ammo they buy it. If they have nothing thats what they do. So yea the problem is more flippers than the buyers. If people weren't so flip happy there would be ammo in stock probably. But what the byproduct of that is you have people that wouldn't normally be buying ammo buying it when they see it in stock. Its just a crazy cycle thats been created and its feeding all of itself, until peoples stockpile as much as they want and then things will subside.

I agree flippers really frustrate me. I can not understand how someone can stand in a retail store looking at an item and say hey I can buy this and sell it for twice what I pay for it. Wow am I a savvy businessman. I just do not get it.
