Garands are like houses in Alberta. Prices are insane and everybody wants one. So whats that mean?. You can just about ask what you want and get it. Stress on the word "just". Put one up fore sale and its gone in 45 mins. IMO
if all these Garands are commanding high prices now they are not going to be sold by those same people for less than they paid. The more that get exchanged while demand is high the more the price will stablize on the high side. Its inflation of sorts and fighting it is near impossible. There is always someone that will pay what you want if its a popular item.

I love my Garand, but if they are the same as houses, I should sell it so I can get a place.

When was the last time you saw the "Garand Boat" drop off containers of M1 Garands for sale in Canada?
Demand is greater than supply, and they don't make them any more.
Twelve years ago they were in the $200+ range.

Isn't the CMP still giving them out in the States? Granted, numbers are limited but prices like that are insane when you consider that Italian and Danish Garands were going for around $500-$600 a little over a year ago.
And the collectors who buy 8, 10, or 15 of them aren't exactly helping matters.

I think that the last Garand boat stopped at Marstar quite a few years ago, I seem to remember that they were $189.00 each and they had a family pack deal for 3 at an even cheaper price each. I guess I should have bought a few then, isn't hindsight great.

3 years ago they were trading on here for $350-$400......

What are the prices for the NEW MADE Garand made by Springfield?
We know what the M1A's sell for by Springfield.

Maybe an alternative for the die hard that wants one but can't find one.

I wouldn't hold my breath for a Norinco M1 since they wouldn't be able to export them to the US market where there is far greater customer base. They didn't build the M14's for us. We just lucked out. Thank you Mr. Clinton.

Bid Ask Prices Are Demand Based EH!
Isnt it really amazing that it took SO long for Garands to see at "bargain bin" prizes like four for $500.00 at Levers ten or more years ago are now commanding the "real USA prices". The M-1 receiver takes 100's of skilled machined operations to make and "Yes Virginia, the M-1 was the first successful semi-automatic rifle used for combat against opponents with turn bolt rifles".
NRA VG or Excellent matched serial numbers (ya rite) M-1 rifles at $600 now may be a "bargain" in years to come. All those Breda and Baretta M-1 were pricey items in the USA years ago.
Surprised that we have caught up?
Nobody much wanted minty Long Branch rifles either at $179.00 ten or more years ago.
AGU Fertilizer stock a year ago before the Academy Award winning "Goracle" made his "inconvenient truth global warming pitch" was $20.00 a share on the TSE. Today AGU on the TSE is worth $46.00 or more and Iowa cant produce enough corn for all its ethanol plants.
Corn futures,,Garand futures..its the "coulda-woulda-shoulda equation".
Meanwhile they are having a tough time selling all those P-1 Walthers mint in holsters with two magazines for $299 and change on P&D.
Who would want a P-38 anyway? Or those minty M-44 Polish carbines for $250.00?
Then the so well made Swiss watch machined K-31s for $275 to $395..there are so many that price may weaken but then how DEEP is the supply eh! The K-31..just arrived here on the market recently..lots now available..the "Best of 1931 technology". How much will these K-31's be worth in ten years??
I remember when you really couldnt "give away" Sako or Tikka made Moisin Nagants in the 1970s..take all you need for $39.95.
These are the "Good Ole Days". The new Norinco SKS for $129 and a case of ammo for the same price will be viewed askance a few years from now.
Yesterday on the TSE or NYSE proved once again that "What Goes UP will Come Down!"...The prices above are the "sleepers" that are so UNderValued that they will, in my opinion..go up.
Reminds me most of 1920s and 1930's era used cars in the 1950s. NOBODY wanted them..then!
