well I could have posted this in ammo, but this will get more exposure and I'm betting it may be too good to be true-
http://www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=3&f=16&t=286619
check it out. I just ordered 1500 rounds and the bill (delivered) was $84.10
yes, $84.10 for 1500 rounds of 7.62 x 39 delivered.
this is from cheaper than dirt.
this may or not be honored, but worth a shot.
get some (maybe) while you have a chance!
Sweet Just ordered me 3K
Somehow I doubt that they'll honor that but I went ahead and ordered 500 rounds. I should probably go back and get at least a couple k, though...
just ordered 2k, now i'll wait and see if it shows.
1500 rounds here
placed an order for 1500. all I'm willing to risk as my guess is they send 3 boxes (not cases) of ammo at that shipping rate...
Sweet ,Thanks.
150lb max????
yuk... that means i'm gonna have to order like 20 times!
yep, I had to do two seperate orders of 1,000 each but if it works it is worth the extra work.
Good luck with this, but I bet CTD does a bunch of order cancellations here real soon. [balls]
I agree Gman.
Not sure if I'm reading this right but I think it's says $3.80 per box of 20 rnds.

Our Low Price: $3.80
Club Price: $3.61
Value: $284.96
Your Savings: $281.16 (98.67%)
Club Savings: $281.35 (98.73%)
it's very clear that it's 500 rounds and the savings amount equates to that high of round count. Then add the cost for shipping. Sounds intentional to me.
If they don't honor it, oh well.
If they charge more then they advertised, then we have them on fraud
if they send the stuff at the price they advertised, then ye-haw! and won't the nay sayers be sayin' "damn, shoulda coulda woulda"
the way I see it, ya can't lose.
I ordered 1.5K, we'll see.
If they don't honor the price, I'll just have them cancel my order.
Shipping was $$$ though.
Kyle
Yeah I think the shipping is where they are getting the money on that deal.
I'd be really suprised if that deal generated any profit. it's an error.
assuming an actual ship cost of ~15/case, that works out to around 3c/round
now thier normal case price is already insane, then the triple charge on shipping is just another kick in the balls.
I got an e-mail saying my order was canceled, but they'd be happy to sell it to me at $3.80 a box of 20, ha-ha.
I said no thanks :roll:

Comments/Special Instructions
well, we tried.
wouldn't it have been a hoot if we did get it?
cant say we didn't try!
same here :roll: :cry:
They have not canceled mine yet. :roll: Waiting for them to do so.
$190/1000 rounds for Wolf 7.62x39, Cheaper than Dirt my a$$.
o well at least sportsmans guide came through with my order of 2000 for $123.47/1000 shipped not to bad by today's standards, with all the price gougers running around.
I could tell you stories about CTD. :evil: Karl.
Cheaper than Dirt must be located in Manhattan. They've got some of the most expensive dirt around.
We all know it was a screw up on their part.
What I didn't like was the e-mail they sent me.
It was written as if 'I' didn't understand how much ammo I was getting for $3.80, even though it clearly states it was 500 rounds for $3.80
They should have said it was 'their error' and appologize for the buying frenzy they caused :mrgreen:
Of course, now I have to call to 'stir the pot' some [poke] , just to point out it was not my fault, but theirs.
Later,
Kyle
BOY, ARE YOU IN FOR A RUDE AWAKENING! You should record the call so you can play it back to yourself a few times. That's the ONLY way you'll believe yourself when you hear what you thought you heard. :roll: Karl.
That bad eh Karl :mrgreen:
