Midway is usually the first place I check when I need something, and usually, but not always, I find their prices fair.
Anyone expecting them to be selling their stock at last years prices, with the present market conditions, isn't being reasonable.
I see no point in blacklisting a good supplier because some of their prices are higher than elsewhere, without also acknowledging that many of their prices are also lower than elsewhere.
They also have the best and fastest shipping of any of the sporting goods dealers I buy from.

Buying what I want when I can find it, where I can find it, if it’s not more than I am willing to pay, just like before. OMG, me too! Me three... Have managed to source the few things I was short on for less than GB prices. Should be good for a while. Just sit back and pull the arm on the loading press...

I have bought a lot from Midway and I usually shop around a bit before I order just to see what is available. Pretty sure I will use Midway until they close of I die.

Midway charges me a fair price, gives me free shipping, ships my order quickly. If I call, an American who speaks clearly will answer and solve any problem. Are they the walmart of the internet? No. Do they provide hard to find service before, during, and after the sale? Yes.

I was just browsing via satellite phone from my yacht tender MoniBegs when I noticed that the price was higher than I figured they'd be for silver-plated elephant bullets. Damnit Larry, don't you know who I am? The horror! Martinis anyone?

I’ve never had a problem with Midway.
If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

I had $250 bucks worth of bullets and brass in the cart a week or so ago and decided not to order because of the prices. I'll wait until Natchez gets them in, or I'll do without. The price is why, if you really need them, Midway has 'em. The price is the reason Natchez is out of stock. Let's look at one of the items that was in my cart at Midway. 60 grain Partitions. $39.99 at Midway when they were in stock. At the same time they were in my cart at Midway, they came in stock at Natchez at $29.49. So, Natchez earned my business and at the same time, to spread out the cost of shipping, I added some things to my order. Midway still had their bullets when Natchez sold out again. Midway's higher price kept me from pulling the trigger. In the meantime, a competitor who has kept prices reasonable earned my business. Obviously the $250 Midway lost won't bankrupt them. But if and when things normalize, I will do my best to give Natchez all of my business. Previously my orders were pretty balanced between the two of them. How many people are there that are of the same mindset. Reading around, I am far from being alone. I am not going to raise hell about Midway. I may still buy from them in the future, but I'll remember these times. It's simply a cold unemotional business decision on my part. We know you're just waiting to serve Larry with divorce papers...  lolol

I'm only buying from people who refuse to make a profit, no matter how small. If they buy if for a nickel, they will sell it for a nickel as a service to humanity.
Imagine a corporate oligarchy so effective, so advanced and fine tuned that its citizens still call it a democracy.

Bought 7x57 ammo pretty cheap at Midway. It showed up 3 days later... before most places are even done processing payment.

Last time 22 ammo was hard to find I backorfered a bunch on Midway. Then I started getting the occasional cancelation of my backorder on a particular brand and then that brand would show up for sale on their site within a few days at much higher prices.
