    Default Buying Ammo for others?

    First off, I dont know if this is the right place to put this, so if it is in the wrong place can a mod please move.

    I saw a buyer intel this morning about ammo in stock at walmart and someone asked if anyone could pick up a few boxes for them and they would reimburse them. I think it would be a cool idea if we could get a list of people who were willing to pick up ammo and people who were willing to buy ammo.

    So if someone finds a ton of 9mm ammo they buy it all and then sell it to one of us at the price you payed. I'm pretty sure most of us would have no problem rounding the number up for the hassle. Worse case scenario someone bails on buying and you sell it to someone else, everyone is looking for ammo.

    Thoughts?

    If I'm ever at a party and the cops come to arrest people. Ill blindfold myself, throw the ball gag in, handcuff my hands, and hide in a closet. Police never arrest hostages!

    Problem is Walmart limits you to three boxes total.

    I have always bought up good deals when allowed. I know that I'll have no trouble selling it here at cost or rounding change up to the next whole dollar for ease of transaction.

    Right, but if i went into walmart to buy 9mm and they had say... 45, I would buy those 3 boxes of 45 and sell them to someone here instead of just leaving without buying anything. Just a thought...

    I see. I wish they allowed 3 boxes per caliber or type. Can't buy 3x 9mm and 3x 45acp. I know you are saying that if someone goes in looking for 9mm, but they are sold out of 9mm but do have 45 and said person owns no 45 guns, you could buy it and trade or sell it at or around cost.

    Unfortunately for me, I shoot enough calibers that I'll take what I can get, but perhaps not everyone is like that.

    They DO allow 3 of each caliber, at least in the Quebec/470 Wal-mart. Problem is you need to be waiting in line at 7 pm to pick thru what's there lol. I normally stop by in the am and very rarely have anything I look for 5.56 .308 .45 9mm.

    The policy is 3 box per caliber. However some of the grumpy and ignorant buttholes who work at certain walmarts claim it to be 3 boxes total.
