They stocked up.. Ended up with 1600 rounds each...
My nephew ran down there and they had figured out their mistake and were selling 50 rd boxes for 2.49..

That a good one...
They called me but I refuse to play the rimfire BS. Maybe because I have a stockpile from lessons learned years ago.
I guess I may look at it differently if I hadn't had any available for a year like them. I guess they deserve a break..

Thievery? No, I don't think so. I'd call it karma from when Dicks caved to the anti gunners and started yanking guns off the shelves.

The wrong is, he knew damn good and well it was mismarked and so do you. Says a lot about people's character, or lack thereof.

Cheap 22 ammo will come back when consumers change back to owning a 50 round box of ammo instead of trying to fill their closet with bricks.

When you knowingly take advantage of a person mistake , then it is the same as stealing , no matter how you justify it. I personally would have let them know their mistake , but this is just the way I am . It isn't in my nature to cheat someone.

If I had prayed to God to help me find some cheap 22 ammo and he answered my prayer with bricks for $2.49 at Dick's what am I suppose to do? Refuse one of God's blessing? I think not.

The legal term here is "unjust enrichment." Not much different than me failing to count the money you give me for a car, and you short me by $100. You can say it's my fault for not counting, but it's still legally unjust enrichment. I'm not an attorney, but I've had our attorneys file plenty of lawsuits over that to recover losses.
