While doing some web browsing this morning, I found this listing on GunBroker:

 

http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=486143059

 

What am I missing here that would justify this price ($1249.95)? Is there something special about the serial number?

 

No interest in buying this particular rifle, just curious about what would make someone think that they could sell what seems to be a basic WASR at an Arsenal level price

The same mentality that feels the need to have a 3% bump for buyer using a credit card.

like there isn't enough profit in that sale to cover costs............. lol

I see that extra 3% too, I guess they are trying to emulate Bud’s Cash\Credit pricing but at least Bud’s ships for FREE. Those clowns are charging $49.95 to ship  something that will cost them half or less to ship. For $1249 they should include a Three Day vacation in Wildwood on 4^th of July weekend, no way that rifle is worth $1300

Here is a NJ seller: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/ViewItem.aspx?Item=485013296

 

He wants $2k for the SLR105  

I'll take it.  LOL.
