Spacehog 2,218 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Unbelievable, Not 20 minutes after the abomination by the White House concluded today, I got an email from Cheaper Than Dirt highlighting all the High Capacity Magazines "Back in Stock". Me thinks they been holding on to shipments for a while for this very day. I had to laugh and share. I need to get off their mailing list. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Ronin38 2,117 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I just checked their website, and the few magazines I would actually be interested in buying all say, "We're sorry, this product is no longer available." Just checking. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DLT 1,646 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I have a feeling lots of things will suddenly be back in stock. Guess I can get back to building that second AR. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

csspecs 1,987 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 Wow, there is profit... But thats just insane. It may be that they are having to pay more to get the products.. There is a temptation to raise prices. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Thor88 3 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 I just removed myself from their mailing list. Glad I never ending up buying anything from those crooks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

GregM1 241 Posted January 16, 2013 Report Share Posted January 16, 2013 (edited) Got that email too. 30 round Tapco AK mags were in stock and listed at $39.99 each. just looked at their page, they had those at 29.99 but they already sold out of them too. - just watched an auction on gunbroker end at 450$ for 5 .223 bulgarian waffles, reserve not met. 90$ per mag is what people were willing to go but that wasnt enough for the seller? crazy days.

Spacehog 2,218 Posted January 17, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Got a metric shit-ton of chinese pre-bans before the summer. I should do some unloading and buy a 5.45 Saiga........oh the possibilities Smoke em if you got 'em VR6Shooter. Personally I don't care what CTD charges, they just aren't going to charge me that much. I just look at the site and Gunbroker for a good laugh these days. Obviously I wouldn't be laughing if I didn't already have what I need, so I guess there are many out there that won't find too much humor in it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
csspecs 1,987 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Heck I'm going to start selling off my surplus stuff. I have a feeling that prices will settle in a few months... I won't sell anything but the extras. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

storm6490 2,768 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Did they change ownership? I remember them having some good deal. Sounds like they have been up to no good. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Mike U. 51 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) Apparently, they are. I wouldn't have paid that ransom for a mag. What a freakin' ripoff! FUCK YOU, CTD. Edited January 17, 2013 by John U. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rhodes1968 1,638 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 (edited) Its called a panic for a reason, people in a panic don't think straight. Think, if you had made no preps for this day how much would you spend to insure you were armed? I dont get all upset with merchants I just don't buy from them, it works well keeping the blood pressure down. Interesting times.

semper299 284 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 I spit my Dr. Pepper everywhere when I looked at those screen shots. Thanks for posting those Dr. Thunder. Made my day! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mike U. 51 Posted January 17, 2013 Report Share Posted January 17, 2013 Remember, just a few short months ago, when that $79.97 mag went for $9.97? Look, I'm all for capitalism, but, this ain't capitalism, IMO. This is pure price gouging, just because they can. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
GregM1 241 Posted January 18, 2013 Report Share Posted January 18, 2013 just got an email from centerfire. they have 20 rounders for 40. still very high too, but much less than CTD. tula ammo (x39) for 7.50/box Quote Link to post Share on other sites
