Price gougers

[xjtony]

Just a little rant here. I stopped by the Tooele Get Some Guns to see what they had and saw that they had some Blazer 9mm. I thought that was great until I noticed the price was marked up to $21.99 a box. I've never paid more than $10.99 a box for Blazer. It really pisses me off to see a business blatantly rip off their customers when they think they can get away with it. Dont support businesses that price gouge!

It really get me that the 2A community preaches solidarity in support of our rights, but is the first community to completely f&@k each other when the times are hard

Supply and demand. I also would be curious to see if their prices have increased, and if so it only makes sense that they have to pass that on to the consumer. Seems like capitalism at work to me, not price gouging.

I wouldn’t be so fast calling out TSS. Ammo prices have doubled in a year everywhere.Blame it on the manufacturers and their make believe shortage.

I'm sure costs have gone up some, but not by more than 100%. It would be like that across the board, but it's not. If your patient there is plenty of reasonably priced ammo to be found. I'm all for supply and demand driving price, just seems like some actively take advantage of the situation

I hear ya. I just stumbled onto a case of small rifle primers last week. It felt like treasure hunting

I'm not expecting it to get any better before next year. Too much instability, the election, the Rona, the looting, the fires, etc.

No offense. But it's only price gouging if you have no other alternatives. They can raise their prices all they want but you don't have to buy from them. Go shop at another store and support them with your dollar. If they can't/ don"t sell at that price they will lower it. Capitalism is about choice. Price gouging is having something with little to no alternative.

I ought to sell some. I'm not sure how many lifetimes supply I have but it's more than two or three.

Nah... I'm not going to sell. I sleep better just knowing it's there.

Marc, I didn’t know you were into the reloading thing. I’ll be back in town the weekend of the 25th. My dad was into reloading and there is a bunch of things in there. I’ll box. It up for you, and we can get together over the weekend. I’ll text you when I’m there and have the stuff in my hands, but I’m not exactly sure what all is left.

I’d love to grab that stuff. Sometimes just to have it from someone I know.
