Shame on these guys. What a joke. They seem to have a magic button that triples or quadruple prices during whatever perceived threat we have at the Moment. Sharing to show the callousness of them this time as a reminder to all.

I will never use these guys again for anything ever.

Unbelievable. I haven't bought from them based on what they've done in the past and this confirms that I won't buy from them again. They're charging $34.81 for 50 rounds of Tulammo 9mm. LGS' around me have it in the $7 range. On the other hand I receive e-mails from the Glockstore. I received one this morning regarding a 10% off sale on Glock magazines and they mentioned in the e-mail that they will not practice price gouging. Good for them.

It's not really a magic button so much as it is a pricing algorithm that puts prices on items based on availability/search engine returns, etc. Having said that I'm not saying it's a good idea for CTD or anyone else. I certainly don't shop there.
 
I bought a commando dagger from them a long time ago, it was asymetrical.

They refused to accept a return and said it wasn't asymetrical.

I don't buy from them
 
speak for everyone but I never have and never will buy from them. Their standard pricing, when not driven by greed never was cheaper than dirt.

Back in the 90s up until mid 00 they were very competitive. Far cheaper than midway or cabelas unless the latter two had a hell of a sell. Shipping was pretty slow but they were ok. Maybe they changed hands or something idk. All I know is that canceling an order that was already approved just to re-list at a higher price was BS. I dont care if they get cheaper than dirt or price as high as they want. That's their prerogative AMD 8 take no issue (and I've sold and hauled dirt as well as bought it for back filling. It's actually not all that cheap) . I wont support them.

Heard about this before. Seeing it 'live and in color' now.
Haven't sent a dime to CTD previously and I don't plan on changing that anytime soon.
 
Raising prices to untenable levels during shortages has been Treats You Like Dirt's MO since like forever.

I have no problem with a seller raising prices slightly to cover their increased costs to obtain hard to get items, but they take it to unprecedented levels.

I have made it a point to never buy anything from them, no matter the price.
