Like some, I saw this coming and had already stocked up on reloading components and hi cap magazines.
BUT, what really chaps my butt is the customer that comes into the store expecting me to have my prices the same as they were 2 weeks ago, so he can buy it cheap and turnaround and sell it at a HUGE profit on Gunbroker
.
OH!
But...that's not price gouging. He is just a smart consumer.
Your point smacks of the reality of these situations. Thumbs Up.
Also, how do you manage to keep some stock on hand for your customers? People need to remember that they aren't paying the lease payments, help, taxes, permits, insurance, and lights you are to keep doors open. All too many are cheap bastids who would complain if you had to pay 100% more now and were losing 10% on every sale. Nobody needs that kind of "loyalty".
