    no more cheaper than dirt catalogue

    my wife's uncle called cheaper than dirt to inquire about some .223 ammo for his AR-15. the operator asked him where he was calling from and he stated california. this is where the interaction got nasty. the operator stated to him its a shame he lives in california and he needs to go to a free state. Her uncle kept his cool and stated he knows about the laws in california but due to circumstances this would not be reasonable. the operator stated "you are as dumb as the rest of the people in california. it is because of your state we may lose our gun rights for the U.S.!!" i would not have believed this occurred but it happened as he had the operator on his speakerphone in his office. we both looked at each other as i was in the room attempting to purchase some .22lr for my gsg-5. he ended the call and stated "someone must be having a bad day!" to this day i am in shock about what i heard during this conversation!

    Cheaper than Dirt can go to hell. More California citizens should be aware of pro CA gun companies and the anti ones. Its more like expensive as ***K.

        Good riddance, CTD sucks. Their catalog would have been helpful during SHTF as toilet paper though.

          I ordered a whole bunch of stuff from them not to long ago while at the academy. I didnt run into this problem. But I have heard of others who hit this road block. I just can't fathom a company who would virtually boycott an entire state.

            I would have reached through the phone and choked her.

              I'll still order some things from them. They're one of the major sponsors for the Bay Bridge Charity Classic. I got a little upset when I couldn't get an AR stock, but I got over it

                After spending a lot of money with them, I dumped CTD years ago when they wouldn't sell me an Airsoft target (just a standard cheapie swinging target) because I was in CA. I must have spoken to the same person, as she told me it was my fault for living in CA and not voting everyone out. There were and still are too many other vendors to put up with that attitude.

                  Cheaper Than Dirt is an anti-CA vendor.

                  They won't sell anything that they think is illegal to CA.

                  They are also too ignorant and unwilling to learn about what is or isn't legal in CA.

                        Aside from their CA policies, you should call back and file a complaint with her manager. No operator should speak that way to anyone over the phone, especially a past and potential future customer.

                          Don't stop their catalogs. Let them waste money advertising to people they hate.

                            unfortunately, its is not illegal to be stupid and dumb like the operator. just look at the government!

                              And so with the vast power of the internet at your finger tips you cant simply fill the rest of your order elsewhere?

                              No, crying like a schoolgirl is more fun I guess.

                              There is nothing wrong with CTD at all, they have some peculiar issues about parts sometimes but they are many times larger than most other vendors and it's to be expected. But overall they offer a tremendous number of items at low prices and fast shipping to CA.

                              Anyone still crying forfeits there man card.

                              As far as there other non FA stuff goes - these boots for instance are 40 bux and totally kick ***



                              Bought a grip of cheap glock and m4 stuff from them - water filters, tents, back packs, ammo and on and on
