Hey guys,

So we have a customer looking to clear out some of his pretty awesome collection of goodies but I honestly don't know the valuation of some things since they just don't come up that often.

The first thing : Brand new (without boxes) Magpul D-60 drums. There are a few of them and I can attest these are perfect, never round even loaded into them.

What the heck are these worth now ? Looking for real world feedback please, not just 'whatever someone is willing to pay', lol.
 
I would pay 400-450 since they are rare and price should reflect it, but anything over that would be in serious price gouging territory
 
They will sell for retail price minimum. They are no longer able to be exported from the US, so they are an item people want and can’t get.
At 300$ each, they will all sell.
At 150$ each, I’ll take every single one you have
 
Morning guys,

Please keep this civil. I started the thread because it has been a couple of years at least since we sold these and a customer expressed interest in selling the few he has. We are NOT price gouging or trying to rip anyone off in the slightest. You (we) are all entitled to your opinion in this country (that may end in 11 days) but it needs to be expressed in a Canadian manner. Pleases and thank yous DO count. If someone with the means wants to pay top dollar for something no longer available due to export regs then so be it. I would never pay $500,000 for a Bentley SUV but there are plenty of those floating around here so some other people obviously thinks they are, lol.

If the customer decides to sell these I will post it here and we can go from there. From what I have seen there are only 2x of these mags possibly for sale. And if he would sell them for $150 each I wouldn't be posting this, they would be in MY safe ( :

What? You want above retail for the privilege of buying it from you second hand?

Since I'm a car guy at heart I will use this as an explanation. In 2005 the MSRP of this car was $448,000 USD. The car is now 16 years old and used but is listed, and will no doubt sell, for THREE TIMES the original price. Why ? Simple, rarity.

Our customer knows he has something that is no longer available in Canada due to US export regulations. So, if someone with the means realllly wants one then they will be willing to pay. It was a fundamental of my grade 9 consumer ed course in high school = supply & demand.

This guy: “No one opinion should control what I want to buy, F you ”
Same guy: “your dumb for paying to get what you want, I think my opinion matters in what you buy so I call you dumb”
