when does it become "gouging" vs supply & demand?

[7idl]

I won't pretend to have read all the replies here... but here's my take:

It becomes "gouging" when you let your inner libtard out and become butt hurt over prices.

sure you can bitch, but you're under no obligation to buy. Once people realize this one little fact, prices will drop.

now, if the .gov is involved in some way, than the above is thrown out the window and all bets are off.

That's what I was eluding to with #2.. regulations... or threats of them...


as far as my "inner libtard", for the most part I'm not annoyed by the prices that are being asked - I'm amused by it...

I think I'm slightly annoyed by people paying them... instead of laughing as I do- but hey, it's a free country...

I KNOW I'm annoyed when somebody says "It's just supply & demand".. when it's obvious to me that there's more at work than S&D...
unless it's someone like MB888 just yank'n my chain...

lol its called if youre paying $500 for a case of 9mm fmj (right now) youre a fucking idiot.

Last night our local Walmart finally got some ammo in. Found out because my son just happened to ask if they had any 9mm. To make a long story short I picked up 2 boxes of 9mm because I was out. It was 20.00 per 100 rounds. Walmart had a 5 box maximum purchase because one of the local gun shops had purchased that Walmarts entire stock and was reselling it for double what they paid for it. I will not be sending any business to that shop. My choice. Others may feel the need to spend more, but I don't.

Pretty much sums it up.

May I ask what part of Colorado that shop is in?

No,which is why it would make you an idiot.

They would have to exploding projectiles before I would pay that price.
