Cheaper Than Dirt caves also

Greedy, price gouging bastards are caving to liberal pressure also.

Their message on both FB and twitter:


Quote
Cheaper Than Dirt! is suspending online sales of firearms effective immediately. We are reviewing our policy internally, and will continue to be the leader in the outdoor industry with our full line of gear and accessories.

Like I posted in another thread, I quit CTD years ago for high price fluctuations and gouging.... they'll never get another dime from me.

They didn't cave, they're profiteering! You can now buy a P-mag at the low price of $59 a pop (no, that wasn't a typo). Screw them. If they offered them for $5 I wouldn't buy.

Suspending online sales of firearms is caving to liberal pressure..... just like Dick's (aptly named, apparently).

I stoped buying from them when Obama got elected the first time and they where charging obscene prices.  Screw them.  They can keep their junk.

I just read that Academy Sports is pulling AR's off the racks also.


The thing to do is email the vendors who deal and supply CTD....such as Magpul Industries...... asking companies to bail on CTD, just like they did with advertising with the magazine article fiasco a few months back.

Butt-holes have cut the price in half.....which is still about 60% too much.

You can buy Gen 2 Magpuls for $10-12. That makes these about 250% too high.

I too quit Pricier than Platinum back in Ought Eight (always wanted to say that!!  ;D ) after they started price gouging anything firearm. The still send me their catalogs, which go straight into the trash. They can - and most likely do - suck bilgewater.

So they stop selling firearms?  They were afraid to do background checks or hated sending firearms to a FFL dealer?  Too much paperwork or something?   What a crock.  I guess they are afraid that something they sold would be used in a crime.  I wonder if they will stop selling magazines 10 round or 30 rounds, etc in case it is found that it was sold thru their online store.   They mine as well stop selling everything.   I was actually going to buy something from them, I will spend a few bucks more elsewhere that actually supports shooters.

Every time I looked at a firearm on their website it was "Out of Stock". It's easy to look like you're doing something when you can't actually do what you say you are ceasing doing. (Does that make sense?).

I'll most likely get banned for it. (Like I care), But I started a thread about it on their forum. Here is the link:
