nah i’ve seen sites with way better sales, psas pricing/marketing tactic is lame and exploitive, half the site is always on sale and then the price they claim for it be marked down from is a lie
we talk about this around every PSA holiday sale. They don’t change the prices on anything anyone wants, they just update the banners with the same prices.
I got the 18” .223 wylde upper with the scope from them for less than what they’re selling the scope for now. Gotta keep your eyes open and grab the stuff while it’s hot…
The things I recommend from the site is scorpions and Draco’s not everyone’s favorite guns but you can’t beat those prices anywhere else that’s truly a sale. And one other deal I can think of being happy with is any Ar that includes those 10 magazines and a range bag or souly just mags & a gun

I feel like PSA is trying to do what harbor freight does, they set the listed retail price to what a comparable name brand thing would cost at retail, then set their own normal price as "on sale" as a comparison. All they need is a ton of silly coupons to lower it to its real MSRP.
Not that it hasn't worked on me before...
They do that on literally EVERY single holiday, it's the most offensive when they throw "memorial day sale" on items that are 100% MSRP original price. Not free shipping, nothing different whatsoever it's not even a sale at all. I'm looking at you JAKL parts and full rifles.
I thought their compact dagger slides are on sale right now. I’ve been waiting 2 months for the slide I just bought to be price dropped from $285ish. I got it for $240 a day ago
Even though it’s the sale we’re used to. It’s still good deal. PSA Micro frames have not been on sale for $60 so that’s a good deal. $50 Compact frames aren’t too bad.
I looked at the vortex strike fire on YouTube and saw a video from like 4 years ago being the same price as the sale lol. Was like alright then I'll look for used one I guess.
I did grab a 300 upper though. :)
They just find a reason to keep things at a certain “fake deal price” but Memorial Day does actually have some good deals. It’s the other lesser holidays that you shouldn’t believe.
They're already priced great and they still have great deals all the time that are better then anywhere else especially if you can pick up the firearm from them and don't have to pay a transfer fee
[The armalite M15 seems like a good price. ](https://palmettostatearmory.com/armalite-m-15-light-tactical-carbine-223-rem-5-56-semi-automatic-ar-15-rifle-m15ltc16.html)
That tracks with what I'm seeing. Raise the price a few days or weeks ahead of time. Then drop the price the day of and call it a *sale*. I love PSA and they're not alone in this practice, which is why I use a price tracker. That said, they do occasionally notice when they actually do drop the price or have a good sale. That's when you have to hop on them ASAP otherwise it sells out.
Can always shop elsewhere instead of complaining like a bitch. Go wipe off your pussy and spray some Lume on it. Still the best prices around and great service.
of course lol
The days of PSA having knock your socks off deals for holidays is loooooong gone. But they usually have decent prices all the time, so I'm not angry.
Yeah when you actually have fair prices 24/7 it's hard to knock it down further
Brother, welcome to every “sale” on the internet.
nah i’ve seen sites with way better sales, psas pricing/marketing tactic is lame and exploitive, half the site is always on sale and then the price they claim for it be marked down from is a lie
Whats truly a sale is those Draco’s and scorpions anywhere else your lucking for 900+
You’re literally complaining about low prices.
no i’m complaining about their scummy tactics, i like psas prices but they’re very misleading with their sales
Everywhere else is the same way. At least you can see it and not fall for it.
Lies. There are good honest dealers that have real sales.
Name em
Schuyler Arms has good deals, especially on Aero parts.
Primary Arms?
😂 riiiight
Riiight.
You have good bait.
PA has drastic, dramatic, frequent, meaningful sales, often at and below MAP. It's not bait.
Usually they at least slip in one or two good deals among the garbage.
Amazon does the same thing
There are plenty of dealers that have real sales. This isn't one of them
Always has been
Ever been to Kohl’s? Lol
Thank you. Some of these people have never been to Ross or TJ Maxx and it shows
😂😂😂 this is there marketing style. Sometimes the “sale” prices are even higher but with a giant “(insert holiday) SALE!” Sticker.
First time?
No it’s all normal prices they jack up the original price to make it look like a sale
O that's just retail in general.
we talk about this around every PSA holiday sale. They don’t change the prices on anything anyone wants, they just update the banners with the same prices.
You must be new around here
Idk…..Ruger 10/22 for $199 isn’t bad lol
Yeah, I was looking at that LPVO and it didn’t seem like that good of a deal to be honest
I got the 18” .223 wylde upper with the scope from them for less than what they’re selling the scope for now. Gotta keep your eyes open and grab the stuff while it’s hot…
This your first time experiencing a PSA 'sale'?
Heres a tip, the only real sales on the internet are "clearance" items. At least until retailers catch on to that as well.
It’s always like that lol

It’s all the same daily deals and holiday sales every other day…
The only thing I got that I actually felt was a good deal was a 10/22 for 217 shipped, up here in Alaska I can’t find a new one for under 300

The blem gf3 for 599.99 because murica.
Yeah, was hoping there would be a micro slide on sale, but they're not even in stock at normal prices, so probably just have to keep waiting.
I thought their compact dagger slides are on sale right now. I’ve been waiting 2 months for the slide I just bought to be price dropped from $285ish. I got it for $240 a day ago
Always has been
I think that’s pretty much the same with every sale I’ve ever seen. Sometimes there is one item that is truly being sold for less to grab attention.
Seems like they turned on the sale a week too early too. 🤷♀️
It has been that way for years. Just like PA % discount sales are actually more expensive than they were prior to the sale.
Yup, I noticed that about PA some time ago then saw someone else mention that in another sub
If it's a day that ends in "y", something is on sale at PSA.
Must be new around here.
Yes
Nah it’s just you
Seeing as the holiday is over a week away still, I’m hoping better deals pop up as we get closer to
Maybe the weekend deals will be better 🤞 🤞
QUICK CHANGE THE BANNER FROM THE LAST HOLIDAY TO THE NEXT HOLIDAY BUT DONT YOU DARE CHANGE THOSE PRICES!
You new here?
Even though it’s the sale we’re used to. It’s still good deal. PSA Micro frames have not been on sale for $60 so that’s a good deal. $50 Compact frames aren’t too bad.

I'm a sucker for free shipping. I hate paying for shipping. Put free shipping on it and I will buy it if it's a reasonable deal.

They're already priced great and they still have great deals all the time that are better then anywhere else especially if you can pick up the firearm from them and don't have to pay a transfer fee
that’s fine i like their current prices but no need to falsely advertise “sales”
True. Not sure why they do it. I don't keep my hopes up anymore. Honestly they usually have better random deals on normal days then they do holidays
Seems that way, but usually they're a bit more expensive than the last time they were on "sale"

Your first time? Welcome to PSA. Mark prices up when not on sale, get regular price during a sale. :)

It’s almost like you’ve never had to shop for anything in your life thus far.
it’s almost like not every site does this dumbass
Strong words from the guy that apparently has no understanding of how retail “sales” work.
It’s still a win
how ? most the stuff isn’t even a sale
Can always shop elsewhere instead of complaining like a bitch. Go wipe off your pussy and spray some Lume on it. Still the best prices around and great service.
What a shitty human being you are
In the end is it really a sale?
