Sad part is that they're charging those ridiculous prices and people are still paying them.
If they'd stop then they wouldn't keep charging that and we'd have realistic prices again!

I agree there. THe biggest problem is people buying at the inflated prices, but I honestly believe that some of the people don't even know that it's inflated.

For example: I went to a hunting/fishing store in Venice to buy a pack of bulk .22 and they were charging $36.00. When I gasped on the price, the guy looked at me and said, "They're all like that". And at the show they indeed were all like that! So when I came home and told my wife about the ammo prices at the show, she thought that maybe the high price was the new norm. That's when I told her about Bass and the lower prices there.

So part of it is the old "see something strange everyday and it will eventually become normal to you" adage. Personally, I can't wait for the buying bubble to "pop" and see the reaction these store owners have when they are stuck with high inventory and low sales!

A big plus one to all of that Ulmus!

If people would stop paying the crazy prices and stop buying as much ammo as their credit cards will hold, then we'd see some normalcy come back.
