You might get lucky at an estate sale.
you wont
No, it is a brave new world.
About $90/1000 is the lowest pricing I've seen.
Unfortunately; Shipping and Hazmat fees can drive up Total Cost. But; best I have seen advertised in last 18 months is:

No, and I haven’t found pre Covid pricing on bread, petroleum jelly, Chevrolet alternators, grass seed or v-neck tee shirts either.
No, the best I've seen on domestic primers was $89 plus shipping. And they didn't last very long.
for over 4 decades i have used only small rifle standard primers in 9 different pistol calibers in 15+ different handguns with not one problem -
We are 3 years in on these prices. At least you have a shot at getting some these days. Question: As a producer you watched prices for your product jump 250% for a solid 3 years. What moron on the market development team is going to stand up and say " Hey Guys, Lets lower our price's Gee our customers deserve it!!"........the market has been set. "Hey you, whats your name?...by the way...Your Fired!"
The $30 - $35 per 1000 we were paying before was most likely not MSRP. Guessing this is the "New" MSRP and will hopefully come down in a couple of years when supply chain fills. The price of brass and copper are chasing prices up as we see with lead shot prices that are scary Just a hopeful thought for today. GW
Pretty sure those days are gone forever.
Best I have done in the last three years was a few weeks ago. 70 per 1000 to the door
Try the primers of foreign manufacturers, so far I have tried Three different venders and they all go bang.
You have to come to grips that prices are what they are and are not coming down unless something drastic happens. SRP have been pretty much available all thru COVID and the prices are better than LRP. SPP were listed for sale on a site a few weeks ago for a decent price. But LRP rarely show up. Natchez had CCI LRP a couple weeks ago for $100/1000. I bought 10K and never looked back. I like to shoot and we have a match every Sunday at our club. I rarely miss a match. I found 2400 powder and bought 16 pounds. Yup, it was not cheap. But, now can shoot and I can shoot for several years before I start to get nervous again. I feel for those who do not have the disposable income to pay the going price. But I'm willing to bet that the going price is the new standard price and it ain't gonna change.
Same goes for ammo. Norma has been running specials on .22 ammo. We have been buying it by the case at the club. No shipping, no hazmat. Last price was $37/brick for TAC 22. I did an ammo comparison test last summer. The TAC 22 outshot some of the Eley and Lapua brands in my 52C. If you can find it, afford it and like to shoot, buy it. Othewise, start thinking seriously about buying an air rifle.
Best prices I have found are at Sportsman warehouse if there is one close to you. Prices are available on their website which the store will usually match when they have them in stock.
Unfortunately, SW only lets you have two sleeves, but last ones I bought last month, were $5.59 a sleeve
I too have been using srp in my 9mm's and have had nary one problem.
Shooting them mostly in striker fired guns too.
I have srp up the ying yang.
