Milsurps / Prohib SKS price

Just got my first gun and it was a Chinese SKS paid 850. Did I get ripped off?

It’s fair price for today’s market. You’ll hear people say it’s overpriced because they bought one years ago for 400.

Our liberal gov't has screwed the firearms market and caused FOMO around certain models, so these are just the new prices, I would not call them fair. It was literally $449.99 + tax at some retailers last summer.
