E-mail from Top Gun (in Taylor):
!!!!WARNING!!!! MANY DEALERS ARE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF CUSTOMERS DURING THIS TIME OF VERY HIGH DEMAND FOR FIREARMS AND AMMUNITION. DO NOT BE TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BY OUTRAGEOUS PRICE INCREASES. TOP GUN IS STRIVING TO KEEP OUR PRICES AS LOW AS POSSIBLE. OUR PRICING PRACTICES HAVE NOT CHANGED. MANY DISTRIBUTORS AND MANUFACTURERS HAVE HAD SLIGHT PRICE INCREASES DUE TO DEMAND AND UNFORTUNATELY WE HAVE TO PASS THAT ON TO OUR CUSTOMERS. THERE HAS BEEN A FEW TIMES WE HAVE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO GET TAKEN ADVANTAGE OF BY DISTRIBUTORS IN ORDER TO GET SOME AMMO TO KEEP THE RANGE OPEN. WE ASSURE YOU THIS IS NOT NORMAL AND WE ARE NOT GOUGING OUR CUSTOMERS. IN THESE LIMITED INSTANCES WE HAVE MADE OUR MARK UP LESS THAN NORMAL TO HELP EASE THE COST TO OUR CUSTOMERS. WE APPRECIATE YOUR BUSINESS AND WANT TO MAINTAIN IT AFTER THE DEMAND DROPS OFF. WE PROMISE THAT WE WILL NOT GOUGE OUR CUSTOMERS!!!! |
Well hopefully they can beat the $69.99  for a box of 50 of Remington 9mm I saw at Gander Mountain in Taylor today (while out looking for shoes). I should have gotten a picture of it. It was unbelieveable. Heck, I'll even undercut them and sell my 3 boxes of Fiocchi for $59.99 a box.
Lets say that they lost my business for good after I saw that. |
I've purchased several Sig pistols from them and having shopped around, their prices were competitive. Their ammo prices were always competitive when they did have a good supply. I haven't bought ammo in a long while. I did all my purchasing last year. Seen this coming. The last time I bought ammo from them, I purchased a 50rd box of Speer Gold Dots in 9mm +P for around $25.00. I wish I would of bought a couple more because they don't offer the 50rd boxes anymore  . I think individual experiences are highly subjective. Just my 2 cents. Now Cabelas is a bunch of price gouging motherfu#!*!s.
