    How do I contact a mod about a seller selling things here at ridiculous scalper price

    The Cast boolits seller wants $100 for 1/4 can of floor wax. That is $400 for a can !!. That is clear abuse and raping of his selling priviledges here in Cast Boolits. The seller needs to be slapped and given some admonishment for his actions on the Swappin and Sellin' thread. Should sellers be allowed to sell primers for $3 each ?? Where is the cutoff for sellers ripping off listmembers on the Swapping and Sellin' thread ??? This isn't Gunbroker !!!!!!!!

    There are plenty of rules for the S&S section. And they are very strictly enforced.

    However; pricing isn't one of them.
    Basically, if you think the price on a item is too high----- don't buy it.

    OK People. Enough of this idle chit-chat.

    I believe he is selling 2 full cans plus a quarter of another.
    Not a bad deal IMHO.

    Speaking of rules, there’s no discussion on s&s threads. Maybe you can give yourself some admonishment for dirtying up his listing.

    Rights, and Privileges, are not synonymous. We have the Right to Bear Arms. As soon as the Government mandates firearm registration, and permiting, then that Right becomes a Privilege, and may be taken away at our Master's discretion.

    I nominate this as the most ridiculous whine of the month.
    The solid soft lead bullet is undoubtably the best and most satisfactory expanding bullet that has ever been designed. It invariably mushrooms perfectly, and never breaks up. With the metal base that is essential for velocities of 2000 f.s. and upwards to protect the naked base, these metal-based soft lead bullets are splendid.

    Forget everything you know about loading jacketed bullets. This is a whole new ball game!

    And no one seems to be offering up any cheese to go with it!
