Update on OD Green Supply burglary

[HoneyBadger]

I don't believe in Unicorns or knomes and "price gouging" falls in the same category.

I gotta agree with ol' sandy-crotch here.

I used to think that price gouging was indeed a real thing but it only applied to necessary commodities such as food and water during a crisis. If you were talking about any other item, especially something such as ammo, which is widely considered a sporting good component, then there was no such thing as price gouging - That was called capitalism.

I have since come to realize that there really is no such thing as price gouging. Capitalism simply doesn't recognize it. If you don't like their prices or the way they operate, then take your money somewhere else. If the market doesn't like their prices or the way they operate, the establishment will go under. Thus, the market speaks. Capitalism.

So as I said who gives a shit about the myth of price gouging.

Also I would turn in some POS again knowing what I know now so don't take this as if I regret the decision. I am going to DA to seek more assistance with witness/victim protection.

The burglary of any firearms or ammo etc affects all of us in the firearm community. I posted this for a few reasons. it reiterates to me the no good deed goes unpunished. By that I contemplated for 36-48 hours on whether to report. I reported it anonymously and yet the fucking Investigating Detective used my name to get the confession. I'm sole provider for 6 kids and Asking the ID at Arvada how they can protect me due to credible threats on my life now was nill. I basically have to take my own protection in my own hands and regardless of all precautions I take I cannot be everywhere I need to be etc.

I am afraid of no one on this earth thus why I came to the conclusion it was in everyone's best interest to let out the info I came across. My life was threatened along with my wife's by the person who allowed Noah Graf and Jodie Howard to stay in their home. The home owner aka Norm over cash his wife owed my wife is the person who threatened both of us. Again falls under the being sole provider and me being "Papa Bear" to do what I have to to protect my family.

Then the fin reason is I need some help from folks on here. Feel free to PM or PM me for my number and we can talk further. I have a pistol for protection and one for wife and kids but lack a few other things and also could use some resources to know where the POS people are.

Appreciate you guys resurrecting the old thread if you wish to debate economics and keep this for help and any info.

What I don't think you realize about business is my goal as a business man is not to be the cheapest around. My goal is to charge as much as I can and keep my tech and myself busy. I refuse to race to the bottom when it comes to price.

I charge a lot because I buy the best equipment, I pay for school for myself and EVERYONE who works for me, I keep my lights on, I buy the top quality parts and I provide a nation wide warranty for two years. In point of fact I am paying to send my shop manager to DFW for a weekend to attend a class on running a shop. So I am paying for the class, the plane ticket, the hotel, and the food to make sure she is a highly trained as I need her to be. Does she already do a damn good job? Yup, but it doesn't hurt to see another angle on how to do a job right.

That costs money.

So I charge a premium for my work.

ETA: I keep finding more to say.

You might consider my prices to be gouging. Because they are indeed high. Personally I think people who come to my shop and pay those prices get their money's worth out of me.

The one time I went in there a salesman with the AR on a single point was in a heated argument with a customer about the prices. It's everyone's right to have a loaded gun but it's my right to beat feet when one them gets pissed off. The dude cleared the store.

Want to complain about pricing start another thread. OR resurrect the one that started way back, last time someone's vagina got sand in it.

That was one of them. The other was the Price Gouger List of vendors thread. Once again vagina where penis should have been.
Oddly enough A fair percentage of "price gouger" complainers, had no problem posting their shit for above market prices, cause that was ok.

Which I find very amusing. I currently have an International Scout listed for what is clearly over market value. How do I know this? Cus it is still for sale. I suppose that makes me a price gouger.

price gouging - pricing above the market price when no alternative retailer is available

Transferred means still in custody, correct ?
