Members screwing members.

This really irritates me:

Dude goes to Walmart and cleans them out of ammo so that he can resell to people who would have walked into that Walmart looking for ammo. No value added whatsoever just looking to make a buck on his fellow Maryland gun enthusiasts.

That is not capitolisim, that's just wrong.

But for such incredible prices who could go wrong?!?

$40 for a box of 38? Does that include a special service from his wife too? I wouldn't want to be the only one screwed in this deal.

People should be banned for this type of crap.

Man from the title I was hoping for something with pictures

I agree...folks should be banned for doing stupid stuff like clearing shelves to make a profit.

unfortunately that is capitalism, but still wrong.

Wonder how many bad Karma points he gets for this?

 

[hdatontodo]

People who don't buy from that ad aren't overpaying. People who do have more money than time and don't care.

What member got screwed?

If someone buys it, then they got what they paid for, if someone doesn't buy it, then ...?

So what if the seller made it to Wally World before me (or you), next time I'll beat them to the store to buy what i want

 

[Streetgang]

Hopefully nobody bites. It's his right to do this. IMHO it's unethical but there are a lot of lowlifes in this world.

Standing by for the same "it's a free economy so you aren't allowed to complain" crowd who defended Cheaper Than Dirt.

Ultimately, while it may be a free economy, this is also a private forum. You wouldn't let someone sit in your yard and sell $5 a cup lemonade, would you?

Really people you know how many threads we had on this one minute you b**** about freedom next you think making money is wrong this is one reason why I left before if you don't like the price shut up and don't buy it easy as that!

 

[mward]

$50 for a 100 pack of 9 mm. Eww.

 

[Tman68]

I just bought 2 boxes of wwb.40 and it cost me $38 a box, so charging $40 when you did the leg work is not horrible.... I have seen LGS selling Walmart ammo at a bigger markup then this that's for sure...

I thought from the title of this thread that maybe you were starting a MDS dating service.

It's not that simple. Clearing the shelves so that others are forced to pay you a higher price is what I have a real problem with.

I've seen higher prices at some of our beloved IPs. When you add sales tax and fuel costs to what the seller paid, these prices don't seem that unreasonable.

You weren't trying to screw folks over though. You gave me a good price on last minute ammo and through in 22lr on top. Its different clearing all ammo in an area then flipping for a profit.

Free market- if you feel his prices are too high, then don't buy the ammo. If no one buys his ammo, he's sitting on expensive ammunition.

This is a hobby- while I hate high prices just like any other shooter, I know I have to pick when I buy and when I wait.

 

[BlackBart]

IF I needed this bad enough Id buy it.

.22L Remington Thunderbolt 40g. Hi-Speed 500rnds. 1 box. $30.00.

.22L Remington Golden Bullet/Brass Plated Hollow Point. 36g. 525rnds.
2boxes. $30.00/each.


Hardly out of line. Don't want it, don't buy it there are FAR worse prices I've seen here.

You wouldn't have to pick if guys like this weren't buying all the ammo up so they could resell it to you.
