>$69.59 for 500rd 9mm luger ($0.13918/rd).

I am newguns and my range lets me bring my own ammo. This seems like a great deal. Should I buy pic related? Should I buy a lot?

gougers. (mostly) every one else either went the buy 3 limit and/or have empty shelfs route but these guys charged 100 bucks for a basic 30/rd steel ar mag.

>>30404992
So, you're mad about supply and demand? Charging what people are willing to pay is just smart business. Doesn't make them bad people as a whole.

Still, you do you, man.

99% of ranges don't allow steel case ammo, make sure yours do.

>>$69.59 for 500rd 9mm luger ($0.13918/rd).
+ $20 for shipping for 500 rounds (18 cpr), $30 for shipping 1000 rounds (17 cpr). Still a good price if you don't mind shooting steel case garbage ammo that practically all indoor shooting ranges ban.

Steel ammunition wears your firearms parts at a much faster rate and when it jams it's much more difficult to clear.

>>30405005
all of the above, I personally use SGAMMO for everything unless I can't get something from them, best service of any ammo supplier.

thats actually a decent price OP, but i also wont order from CTD.
they actually cancelled orders to resell items for a huge mark up. its a free market and its their business to run as they see fit, but fuck them.

He's a scumbag like the rest.
>>
>>30405027
no, that was way beyond supply and demand. i get gouging and how it spreads supply around, how it makes sure people only have pretty much what they need and how it actually benefits crisis etc. we've all been to college and have seen the power points. but you cant, despite any regulation, tell me a GI 30 round mag will be worth 99 fucking dollars in my life time. encouraging the panic among your community, the community that pays for you food and your house, isnt 'supply and demand'.
>>
>>30405115
>>Manipulates stock levels to con buyers into buying
Only time I have seen this is with Golden Tiger 7.62x39, when they would put something like 400 cases up, let it sell out, and then put another 400 cases up a day or two later. Honestly, it stops rich fuckheads from completely buying them out before the average Joe has a chance to see what they have in stock. No one is forcing you to buy from them just because they only have a few items listed as in stock.
>>raises prices during panics
Basic principle of supply and demand.

This. It's not like CTD where you have a 200-300% increase in price

When SG Ammo raises prices during a panic, it's by a few cents per round. That's acceptable. CTD was selling a case of 5.56 for $1000 during Sandy Hoax.
>>
>>30405182
That wasn't the main beef that people had with CTD.
They canceled a shitload of orders claiming they "were assessing whether or not they wanted to remain in the business " or some bullshit, only to turn around and relist those items at 300%-1000% markup.

Fuck those scumbags.
>>
>>30405241
Buds Gun Shop has done that and people still buy from them.
>>
>>30405249
I wouldn't buy from those fucks either.
Nor should anyone else, after the Black Friday debacle.
But it's a free country, and people can choose to support scumbag companies if they want.

>my range lets me bring my own ammo
Are you sure they allow steel case, though? Most of them only let you bring brass case and then claim the discarded brass.
This is also the only reason why certain ranges ban AKs.
Mine, for example, allows you to bring your own ammo but bans reloads and certain brands: no Tula, Wolf, Brown Bear, Red Army Standard, and surplus ammo, but doesn't ban Golden Tiger. They think they're sneaky by not overtly banning steel cased ammo, but idgaf. You pick up the steel and they never know the difference.
>>
no, never ever buy from those fuckers. centerfiresystems.com has 1000rds delivered for 180. Even if CTD is giving stuff for free, do not do business with them ever.

I really hope you are OP, that would be hilarious.

If you're not OP, and you're just here to bait post poorly, I hope things look up for you soon. We all wish you the best.
>>
First, use ammoseek you fuckin pleb.
Second, spend a few extra pennies and get Bear instead. Extracts a lot better.
>>
>>30408991
They do that because they are too lazy to pick out the steel case from the bulk brass they sell to recyclers/reloaders.

Some ranges even say you cannot pick up your own brass 'in an attempt to prevent people from using their reloads'

Its all kikery.


And yes OP, $0.14/rd is pretty damn good. Just keep in mind, you gonna need an ammobox and dessicant to store that shit, cause its will rust if you look at it the wrong way. You may want to get some Wolf blackbox, its double lacquer sealed and usually only a cent or two more.
>>
>>30409013
Do you boycott Cabela's too after that Nikon 3-9x @ $199 2014 blackfriday fiasco?

If not then fuck off you ragged gaping cunthole. CTD actually has satisfactory customer service that responds, unlike StagArms, AKBuilder, and a few others on the shitlist.

Marking something down on accident and not honoring it is completely different than yanking orders and increasing prices across the board to capitalize on a panic.
