I just looked at the site. They are actually using a Midway Logo.
As other members have pointed out, if an online retailer only accepts Zelle, BTC, Venmo, etc. it is a scam. Anyone who gets taken by that in this day and age is playing the sucker in that story.
I'm looking for a very particular bullet for a Grendel. I got blinded when the seller sent a PM with a pic. They are unobtanium at the moment.Want bullets?

I have probably spent about $2k with them in the past couple of years.
The only complaint is the USPS does not always update where the package is in a timely manner!
Veteran or not this guy is a JOKE!
Over the past year seeing the words “in stock” has also been the sirens’ song.
Stay safe.
It's really a sad commentary on the gullible and desperate nature of some members of the shooting community.
I think it's an even sadder commentary that the scammers can exist and prosper!!
With the price of life today, ya can't blame a guy for looking for a deal, but those are surely snake-infested waters!!
By now, if you can't read the tea leaves with regards to these websites, I do blame the guy looking for a deal.
I will never blame any victim for falling for the scams of crooks and con-men. There's a difference between criminal behavior and victims whose only "crime" was looking to save some money.
If you’re in your 40’s then you’ve spent a good portion of your life in the connected era and have lived thru the evolution of these scams. I wonder if many of their victims are 60+ and only became exposed to online commerce much later in life and it’s such a foreign environment they don’t even know what they don‘t know.I guess I am turning into a curmudgeonly 40-something, but when the clues to these scams are so blatantly obvious, I am going lay blame at the feet of good 'ole Merle Johnson and his quest for cheap ammo or primers.
