Depends which capital. We got 11 of them you know
j/k, I can get reloads for 20$/box in my area. Online I think the best I've seen is around 24$/box (Wolf reload). When CanadaAmmo had the father's day sale, PMC 45 would have been around that price if they'd been in stock, and I would definitely prefer PMC to reloaded for the same price.
Btw, I'm not sure but I think it's illegal to sell reloaded ammos unless you do it commercially with a licence (like Wolf or Phoenix). I know the EE forbids selling reloads unless they're commercial reloads at least.
At this point I'd agree that if you can sell an NP27 for a good price, buying a combo just for the ammos is the best route. I wouldn't plan on that combo staying 450$ forever though. All the other 1911 combos are now 550$, which is not a bad deal at all, but not so incredible either. I expect the NP27 combo to get to the same price point eventually. Probably when they get their next shipment.
