When the Zombies start, you're going to want that extra ammo! Or bring it to my house with your guns. We'll sit on the roof and target practice!

Will you get rich if you sell it? No
When will you be able to buy more at the same price? ???
Do you need the cash to pay bills? Then yes
If you do plan on selling are you going to sit on that money in hopes of buying ammo at a cheaper price down the road to double if not triple your stock pile? This is where I am thinking but I can afford to just buy when I need to and right now I don’t need to buy any for a very long time, So in all I will just keep my stash and shoot when I want to.

agreed, dealing with people, selling stuff is a pain in the butt. I feel dumb doing it on stuff I was going to throw out, or get for free, find etc. I have made around 3k this year selling crap in my garage and basement to make room, sell stuff I found, etc. I feel dumb selling stuff for 30 bucks I got for free after dealing with some people and thats just doing porch pick ups.
I am not leaving hundreds in ammo on my porch, I hate waiting for people, no shows etc.
Maybe op should try to sell a couple boxes here and hter and see how terrible it is dealing with people and see wow, all that typing and arrangements to flip a 9mm ammo box for what? $17 profit ?
Like you, if I had 100k worth of ammo extra, and someone wanted to pay me 200k for it, and bought it all at once, sure.
I am not looking at having my ammo and ballz busted, ohh man I only brought 150 bucks will you take that, this ammo looks old, hmm I kinda wanted hornady, this is federal.
People are the worst!
"try to sell a couple boxes here and there and see how terrible it is dealing with people.. "
You must have tried selling ammo recently on MGO...
I've had some great transactions in past months & a fair amount of non-transactions more recently.
Makes me wonder is reading comprehension a lost art ?
If they can read that ammo is for sale, don't they understand the meaning of FIRM price ?
Apparently NOT for some.
Most all the ammo I've posted FS was below the lowest price found on ammoseek.com, on the date it was posted for sale.
Some think you should sell them your ammo for what price they want to spend.
They get offended when you decline their offer.
I set any money made from selling my stash of factory ammo to purchase components.
Bayou bullets is running a backlog of 12-14+ weeks, to ship orders.
Still waiting on an order placed Oct. 9th... wish I'd placed a larger order @ the time.
Shipping ammo isn’t hard or really even that expensive, it is a process and their are rules-but nothing your average joe can’t manage to figure out-there are even stickies here and on most other gun forums that have really detailed process instructions for it if you cannot manage on your own.
I’ve sent and received many many packages of ammo over the years, it really isn’t an issue unless you just don’t care to look and figure it out.

I would love to have you explain this Balrog, have you (or others for that matter) successfully shipped ammo? I had a real nice shipment all sold, boxed up, tagged with an "ORM" sticker and ready to go to its new owner. I knew for a fact that USPS wouldnt touch the stuff (or maybe that was where I went wrong? If you ship USPS I would love to hear that good news) so I called FedEx for a pickup.. My local FedEx guy shows up,, says I have to take it to HQ in GR.. I did that and was told I needed to apply for some kind of a Haz Mat status. Went home, stopped at UPS, basically told the same thing.. Perhaps I should not have mentioned to anyone I was shipping ammo like I was told by a local gun shop to do but I was not willing to take the risk of fooling with the feds.
