Ebay brass going cheap

[BamBam]

This is the deadline aug 13th on ebay for reloading brass, It looks like alot of people are trying to get rid of as much as they can , might find a good deal.

Do you mean Ebay is no longer allowing empty brass to be sold?

Ebay is no longer allowing anything "essential to the firing of a gun" (or some such nonsense) to be sold. No brass, no barrels, etc.

I hate that there is no viable alternative to Ebay. I know there is gunbroker.com, but no where near the exposure.

Does that mean we have to stop selling people?

Yes, unless you are selling them as parts.

A little known ebay rule is that kidneys are not allowed to have a reserve price.

I wouldn't buy any used brass that I couldn't hold up to my eye and examine closely. Had a buddy buy 2,000 .223 cases that were once fired by a police department, and it looks like they were fired full auto from a gun with significant headspace problems. Most of the brass has incipient case head separation, and showed the tell-tale bright ring around the case head when resized. I wound up donating it to the Oakdale brass scrap supply, and made sure that it did NOT wind up in the used brass auction.

Buying used brass sight unseen is just something I would NEVER do, PARTICULARLY on e-Bay. You know what percentage of the Omega watches sold on the Bay are fakes, and rather bad ones at that??

I was on e bay a few minutes ago and all the brass was gone off the site.
