My local gun shop has a stack of dpms lower parts kits for 199.95 doesnt event come with a grip. I was pleased to see that they have not sold a single one after 2 weeks. Made me sick to see that price on them. They are known for being expensive but thats just crazy. Im glad others also see it that way and are not buying them. I understand raising prices somewhat in this market but 200 bucks for a little package of plastic and springs is just bending over your fellow man. I will not be upset if they sit there for years and give them a constant reminder of how bad they were hoping to screw people.
On the flip side of things there are still some decent dealers out there. Code red firearms has held firm on their lowers at 149.00 shipped. They found out that people were buying them and then listing them on gunbroker for 350+ so they limited purchases to 3. They announced on their website and facebook that they did not condone the gouging and that was why they would be limting the purchase ammounts unless they know its a group buy or a dealer is buying them.
