Re: List price gougers here

Here's a unique offer ... http://www.texasguntrader.com/index.php?a=2&b=292685" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I guess gouging depends how much beer he's offering?

Re: List price gougers here

I've enjoyed reading the spirited defense of free enterprise. Understand I never said these sellers should in any way be prevented from asking whatever price they want. My point was merely to list who was doing to let the free market decide for itself (and hopefully get a few laughs from the ridiculousness of it).

Anyway, got this from GT Distributors via FB and email:
GT Distributors will stand firm and honor current pricing on all our products.

There will be no price increases or gouging due to the current increased activity in the public safety market. Any price increases are solely due to increases from manufacturers. Our customers are the most important asset to our success and we appreciate the business today and in the future.

Over the past couple of days we have experienced increased activity in our Retail Stores, Online, and Inbound phone calls. Please be aware GT Distributors is currently in a backorder situation for all AR & AK rifles. We are also backordered for most magazine manufacturers and Glock magazines are running very low. At this time we are still in a good position for ammunition, however, there will be a shortage of .223 ammunition by January 2013. Inventory on all Glock Law Enforcement and Commercial models are also still in a good supply.

Regardless of GT Distributors' backorder situation we will be receiving product for firearms and ammunition that have been placed prior to November 2012. Please be conscious that although GT Distributors has standing orders with manufacturers, ETA's have been extended and cannot confirm firm delivery dates. Firearm and Ammunition manufacturers have increased their production volume to meet demand and GT Distributors is actively engaging all of our resources to obtain needed firearms and ammunition. At this time ETA's for standing purchase orders are still to be determined.

We appreciate your cooperation during this time and thank all our customers who have understood of our situation. We apologize for the long waiting periods and are doing the best we can to assist each customer.

Sincerely,
The Orr family and the Management Team of GT Distributors

List price gougers here

Thought I'd start a thread to call out the frenzy price gougers and opportunists.

Everyone I'm sure by now has heard of CTD's $60 PMAGS and other customer unfriendly practices.

But the used market is also feeding the insanity:

This guy wants nearly $4000 for a used $1,000 Colt AR-15 and $250 worth of ammo and mags

:roll:
