Gun and gear reviews What’s going on with Gunpost prices?

What makes people post their used guns for above new prices? I’m looking for a 10/22 brand new they’re about $419.99 in my area, but every post I’m seeing is like $500-$1000. Why would anyone pay more for a used gun? I’m not even talking about modified ones, or optics or anything. Just a standard wood stocked ruger 10/22 for like $800.

Sellers trying to rip off the newbies who dont know the prices

Cant wait to see the 5000$ Carmels and Makasis show up

A.B Bound is a prime example with his grossly overpriced lever actions that are bumped to the first page hourly it seems

What a joke

Checkout bushwalker in MB dude sells his sks’s that he finds on gunpost for 5-600 and puts them into ATI stocks and stupid attachments that nobody wants and charges 1300+ for the rifle and he always bumps his stuff up to front page.

I had to check and yep, he's like 80% of the Alberta page with everything from 10k mad pig builds downward. Must spend a fortune on sponsored posts.

I don’t know how he has 27 Marlin dark series when you can’t get them anywhere.

Wtf. I've had the .44 1894 Marlin Dark on backorder with RDSC since October 2023.

We've seen like 6 as a dealer since then it boggles my mind how he always seems to have them.

Not in 44 mag, i mean 6 dark series total. Sorry for the confusion. Though Ruger is back to telling us not to take preorders for the guns so im assuming our little deluge of them in the spring is over for now.
