Probably trying to get his money back, no longer the big investment he was counting on.

wow, pretty pricey...  +1.

then again there is no reward without risk, sucks that his risk didn't really pay off though (unless someone is foolish enough to actually pay him that amount.).

I'd like to meet the people, who are willing to buy it.  I've got some MOE pmags, that I wanna sell for 200 a piece.  I've also got an entry level upper, that I want 1k for. :rofl:

Yeah, guess he was hoping that it was going to get even more crazy.  Didn't happen.

I understand that he wants to mark up his items a little, due to the current market values.  But, he's trying to sell turds, at gold nugget prices.

It's a free market and this is what makes America great. I wouldn't buy it but I do find it entertaining. I'd do the same thing IF the AWB ever passed.
But alas, I rarely succumb to my Chinese blood / Ferengi image and embrace opportunity :-\

That's pretty normal for Fh. Take the usual price then multiply it by 10 and list it for sale. Happens in every section. It's funny though, I'm pretty positive the shop frequently has them in stock and if they don't more soon arrive. He also doesn't list if its stripped or complete or a polymers lower.
