    WE ALL NEED TO WORK TOGETHER!!!

    i have figured out that a lot of people on here and everywhere else are buying up all the ammo without the intent of shooting it. they buy it then post it up on here so they can make a quick profit.... We are already needing to stick together to battle our state for our 2'nd amendment right. we should have a way of telling fair members from the gougers and rip offs....

      If people would quit buying it at that price it would stop. I refuse to pay more for ammo. I'll wait and save my cash.

          Junior members-obviously joined to gouge

          Senior members-less apt to gouge but be wary

          Calguns addicts-above reproach pay whatever they're asking it's guaranteed to be fair.

            Don't trust anyone with less than 1000 posts and an itrader under 30.

              So what ammo are you looking for that you can't find or afford?

                Hey! That's not fair.
                PLease don't hate me because I'm a noob

                Well, sell the guy something....
                This^

                I've actually waited VERY patiently to get all the parts for my first AR build without paying fool's prices. I still need an LPK & Stock/Buffer etc. but have them "On Order" from a couple of vendors so hopefully my turn will come soon. I don't think I would be gouging either if I was on the selling end. And yes I'm looking for ammo but will wait to buy in any quantity until it's well under $1/round.

                  its others that i see that need ammo and i have been doing as much as i can to help others by buying ammo that they need. we need a special thread just for no bs pricing and price gouging is not allowed.

                      So it seems what you are saying is; if a CGN member finds a good deal on ammo, buy it while it is available, even if that CGN member does not need to increase their stockpile or doesn't even have a need for that caliber, then sell it here at CGN marketplace, with only a fair markup, so that more ammo makes its way into CGN members hands, rather than others?

                      Sorry for the run-on sentence.

                        Even online ammo stores are gouging if they have stock to sell... It is simple economics! The law of supply and demand applies here fully!

                        iTrader ratings are here to show who has made good sales, purchases, or trades to other members. If you feel a price is unfair then post a complaint here... otherwise dont buy it!

                        Do you go complain at the gun shop over their rising prices and sinking supply? I hope not... because it is out of their hands. Ammo and guns are what keep small gun shops in business, no ammo in stock means reduced profits, which means they have to charge more for what ammo & guns they do have!

                          I bet its a big scam for all of us to dig deep for ammo.. A bunch of corporate pricks are sitting a big pile of cash somewhere laughing their asses off.

                              i run a buisness and i understand supply and demand. Private party sellers dont have any overhead costs...... that being said im not buying it but i believe strongly in good business. im just wanting to make a thread for members who are willing to help each other out. if you are not the helping type then leave the thread.
