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

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.
