Wtf is up with these prices? It seems just September last year these things were still going for $400-$500 max.
Nowadays I can't seem to find at for under $680, $750 seems to be average.

You should see what Atlantic is asking for an ugly as fuck VZ pistol.

Got mine for 399 with 5 mags and free shipping. from classic Firearms. Feels pretty good

When was this?

That's what happens when you don't get while the getting is good.
The writing was on the wall LONG before the surplus kits ran out. No "too good to be true" deals last forever, and the vz2008 was a complete steal.
That's why I ensured my poorer friends who wanted a vz58 after using my cz model got in on it. One still thanks me now and again for making sure he got in on that deal.

It's still insane about this massive price jump in such a short time.
Hear great reviews about em to all sorts of probelms.
What will I be jumping into if I buy one?
The probelms I've heard.
>"gremlins" leading to reliability issues due to not having a tabbed bolt carrier.
>canted sights
>you legit cannot adjust windage on the front sight at all, like it won't move.

I've wanted one but already had a Yugo I liked and people think there fancy shit or something here. Cabelas has had one sitting for months with a $900 tag
>>32781904
they were underpriced, a great deal that everyone complained about being a poorfag gun. prices caught up.

the gremlin is only an issue if you're a leaf.

>massive price jump in such a short time
That's what happens when supplies run out. Happened to mosins and 545(before it was even banned) and 54r surplus ammo too.

I just turned 18 and went on a buying spree... So 2014
I showed up late for everything, when nuggets were dirt cheap I wasn't 18, when Vz58/2008s and K31s were cheap I wasn't living in the states. Not that I'm here I'm stuck without a FOID and unwilling parents. fml

Could have been a cz import and not a vz2008. They got for about a grand. Not having the bayonet lug is a give away for a cz import

>under $680
If you mean without the tax and transfer fees
