If anyone wants a brick of CCI SPMs, I'll sell it for $250 and save you the hazmat fee.

I would use chicom primers. I have shot some made in china 7.62x39 (berdan primed) ammo and they all went bang. Anything to build inventory back up again.

Nope. I am not willing to knowingly give money to China.

I respect your position. Russia and China are two peas in a pod imho, and lots of folks including myself purchase ammo and primers that are made in Russia.

And this is the reason why I support free trade/capitalism and economics. You can commit to an ideal with your money while someone else can choose a different path with their money on the same topic. Nobody is wrong, both get what they are looking for and nobody is getting wronged.

I do not support one telling me what I can't or can do with my money because they feel different and then whine and legislate their feelings.

Shows back order, what was the price?

$250. IMO pretty foolish. They had 14 units they made $200 each on above the normal price, so an extra profit of $2800. Let's go big, though and say they started with a hundred, so that would make it $20,000 of gouged profits.

In that case, for $20,000 they pissed off enough people to cost them hundreds of thousands of lost sales starting now. Not just primers, but everything else they sell. Forever. About as bad a business mistake that could be made.

Dang, that's pretty nuts for primers.
