Title: MidwayUSA Mid-August Sale
Post by: alfsauve on August 04, 2011, 06:50:57 AM
If you haven't gotten your flyer yet:

There's an ad for TruGlo Red Dot listed for $0.00.



TYPO:  You won't get that price.  I believe courts have held that unless a company makes a pattern of purposely mistating prices, they can't be held to unreasonable typos.     The actual sales price is $62.99


AN ASIDE:   Got approved for "dealer pricing" with my C&R.    Only around 7% savings, but I spend >$100 every month, so that's like getting extra month's order.

Watch dealer prices on Leupold scopes. I've found some of the prices on the tactical models to be the absolute lowest I could find.  Bill T.

 They must have promoted the box packer that sent me a 16" Ruger barrel for a Browning Buckmark.  While I have a lot respect for MidwayUSA and Larry Poterfield after my last order and all the trouble and extra expense it caused I don't look too close at their ads anymore.

Probably not a warm body error.  The 375 employees have been joined by a huge automation system and computers that go with it.  Many of us have seen the system on tv or magazines, and Larry explained a little when he was here a couple weeks ago.  People, computers, automation, etc., nothing is perfect.

Expense???  Please explain.
