This one has been going on for years.
Right up there with the "surplus .303" and the "new valmets m78's", every couple of months (even years) the rumours spin up again.
I'l believe it when I see it personally.
Garands are too finicky on ammunition for me to get excited about anyhow.
Guns only have two natural enemies; politicians and rust.

I think most would agree that they would be a bargain at 3X $220.
Edit: Assuming they're not a POS.

Sure, why not. I mean we haven't even seen the condition of these yet, so why not throw out a silly number that we'd be willing to pay, not knowing anything about what condition these guns are in.
Really?
If CMP is selling them for $220 in the US, there is a reason for it. And it isn't because they got them that cheap.
CQB, 3 Gun, ISSAC and Service Rifle Shooter.

Why? We don't even know condition yet.
Here is a pic of Korean marked M1 Garand stock that Liberty Tree is selling in the US. Pristine, no?

Just need a little clean up! Pretty sure they'll sell as long as the bores are ok.
For sure. But that is just the stocks. Metal? Rust? Bore quality?
If one wants something with some military history, totally cool collectable for sure. But I'm not thinking these will be diamonds in the rough. They'll need attention.

Even at $350 I'll take 2. Hope we can get some.
garands in korea are being used for reserve duties along with m16s. they are well used and abused.
