There's one on GOC for $550. I think that's about right.

Saw one I could get for $470  OTD , just wondering what were going for now.I knew that was a pretty good price.Seems like everything is slowly coming back down to reasonable prices.

Haven't seen one that cheap in a long time. I'd jump on it if I wanted one.

$470 is a solid price. They do bounce around a bit. About 3 months ago I was seeing them readily available in the 550'ish zone. Now Atlantic has them for 699 and Primary Arms has them for 845.

I wonder if maybe they arrive in big bulk shipments and all the dealers get them at once, so the market gets flooded for a short period of time and they drop to the 550'ish range. Then that stock gets depleted and the prices rise until the next cargo ship arrives. It seems like either everyone has them, or only a few do. Right now I see several sites showing out of stock so we must be in one of the troughs of supply.

Depends, current production is about $600 new. Older production is a lot less, even if it doesn't have issues. I would NEVER buy a WASR that is not a current production model because A LOT of the older guns had problems. Current production guns are the best bang for the buck on the AK market.

A current production WASR will have a year at the end of the serial number. It can either be a two digit year or a four digit year but all current production WASRs have it.

I have an older Wasr wither the spud receiver And I have put thousands of rounds through it of all Kinda ammo some resembling rocks. It is never failed to spit a bullet out the barrel and I’ve never cleaned it . But supa fly is correct they did have problems

Got a Egyptian AK  somebody built on a spud receiver, front sight is canted . I put a rear Williams adjustable peep sight on it. It groups and functions great!

How is it a WASR if built on a spud receiver?
