What do you think is a fair price for Chink steel core 7.62x39 in sealed spam can?

Sealed spam can of 550 rounds. Chink 7.62x30 steel core.

Gunbroker prices are all over the place - from ~$500 to $1,000, but not seeing anyone making any bids at any price, so no help there.

550 means stripper clips, 55 of them. Those are in pretty high demand. I saw some at a gun show this weekend for a buck a round, not sure if any sold for that.

In stock and running about .50 to .60 cents a round plus shipping and up for higher end stuff.

Kind of a recent jump in price but not like 5.56.

11/29/2013: Price was $117.99 -$2.00
6/11/2015: Price was $119.99 +$2.00
8/2/2015: Price was $114.99 -$5.00
12/18/2015: Price was $119.99 +$5.00
10/6/2016: Price was $118.99 -$1.00
7/7/2020: Price was $126.99 +$8.00
1/31/2021: Price now $244.99 +$118.00

Lots and lots of AKs in the U.S. but according to the ammo sales it looks like quite a few more ARs in God fearing Americans hands.

Chinky pop was .50 per round when non-corrosive Rusky was a quarter. It sells for a bit of a premium because it can't be imported, and by all accounts is pretty hot stuff. I have a 720 can (no strippers) and I kind of regret not taking it to the fun show this weekend. Might have been good exercise!
