:lol: :lol: :lol: I just looked on Ebay for some 300 Blackout Snap Caps.

There are listings there for (one) snap cap for $6-25 AU,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, PLUS $385-04 AU postage.
From Canada.

Has the world really gone that mad or have I been asleep for a few years ?
I do not fear death itself... Only its inopportune timing!

AI generated postage price. Message them for a realistic postage rate.

I wanted a 300mm long 11/32 deep hole drill from the US for a lathe project, and the drill was $32 US but postage was near $300. I messaged them, and they replied that's what it was, AI BS. And quoted me $23 AU to send to me.

Maybe in your case it's a real price, to discourage you from buying some gay thing you don't need.

I'd probably believe it at around 2010 when I was bringing in a lot of still chainsaw stuff from America I tried to get some stuff out of Canada and for 20 bars around the 20 to 25 inch Mark they wanted over a thousand dollars

I believe some sellers will do this temporarily (or not) to keep a listing alive while the item is out of stock to keep getting clicks to stay high on the algorithm

Make your own, quick, simple, easy, FREE! Used case (drill through side to denote dummy round), insert & crimp projectile, replace spent primer with glue in nylon plug or hard rubber (preferred, get much more use from hard rubber), some people use just a dab of hot melt glue then trim to suit. Hundreds of firings before needing to replace plug.
