wow lots of posts today with 10 cents per round or more! 22 LR - 40 gr LRN - Remington Thunderbolt- 50 Rounds - $9 from Lucky Gunner, they'll be lucky if they ever get any of my business 18 cents for that crap?! I don't think so.

I won't touch .22LR ammo unless it is .05 a round or cheaper. I hope everyone does the same. These places are selling less rounds, but making a ton of money.

Blah, blah, blah. Taking up space?!? Some of us love to look at all the stuff posted. We then control OURSELVES and decide to buy or not to buy.

What's your plan? Throw out contributors who post bad deals? Three months now and you are still pissed off?

Your rant took up space, but I will still defend your right to rant.

I don't get it, I still see most deals well above 10 cents per round, how does this work? I also would like to see a feature where "sold out" deals are not presented either.

I see the same prices as all of you10-12 15-18 20 cents /rd for 4-5cent 22lr cheapo. I just dont bite-I regularly check local retail and on line and only buy at 6 cents either delivered or after tax at retailers. I have accumulated over 15,000 rounds this way in the past 2 years and that is after shooting probably 6 or 7 thousand. It is just about discipline-Just like at a casino or a strip club-lol.

What you guys do is awesome. I have a FB group mostly just for info, meetups, etc.. well some of my members started posting about gougers and some ppl sell stuff on my group (its not what it was intended for but its fine) when they try to gouge I call em out. I cant tell you how many msgs I get from these ripoff artists and how its funny listening to them defend what they are doing.... these people complaining are more than likely gougers themselves, if they feel so great about what they are doing why do they get sooooooo defensive.. they are a disgrace and maybe (maybe) one step up from a damn thief, you make us all look bad in the firearms community...

again this site is great keep up the good work places like this are a God send..

It sounds like the most effective way to prevent people from, as you call it, price gouging, is to call them out when they post items for extravagant prices. It is noted from your text, that is exactly what you do.

But low-and-behold, if they are prevented from posting items at ridiculous prices we are UNABLE to call them out for this behavior. Without these stupid postings we CANNOT inform the well intentioned gun enthusiast we so wish to help.

So if, by your own admission, you think the best way to prevent price gouging is to call out people for it, who are you going to use your skills on? You're tilting at windmills now, buddy.

Censorship is never the right thing. Vote Liberty!

The admins shouldn't have to regulate anything for you. You don't like a price, don't buy it. Yes... .15/rd is not a deal compared to prices from a couple years ago. But currently it is a deal compared to prices just a few months ago. Yes, prices should go back down to what they were a couple years ago. And slowly they will, hopefully. But saying the admins should regulate the ads on this site cuz people don't like the prices is like gun haters asking law makers to make more gun control laws cuz they don't like guns.

I don't always join a deal website 2 days 21 hours ago, but when I do, it's not to post or buy deals, it's to complain about not having enough overpriced 22lr ammo "deals" to click on.

If you would rather pay more to shoot now, there are plenty of places to find gouge-level prices on 22LR ammo. But this is a *deals* site and people looking for deals aren't interested in having their time wasted having to sort through post after post on high priced goods.

I, for one, welcome this edict from the site admins.

Shouting, sarcasm and deliberately being obtuse does not help your argument. But if that's the way you prefer to communicate, then let me try again in a manner you will understand.

ADMINS! WHY CAN'T I FIND EXTREMELY OVER-PRICED SHIT ON YOUR *DEALS* WEBSITE? WAAAAAAHHHH!!!

Hope this helps.

How was that obtuse? I directly addressed your issue of time being wasted trying to find deals in all those high priced posts on a *deals* site. Thought that was your issue with the *deals* site? And it's funny how you open with "If you rather pay more to shoot now..." Name once when I said I like the prices as they are? What you fail to understand is, I'm not defending the prices at all. I'm defending this site from people who feel entitled to this site. Who bitch and complain about what this site should be doing for them. If people actually PAID for the service of this site to find deals for them, then yeah they should complain.

Now you say *deals* website. Do you even know what that means or how that works? Or are you being a bit too narrow minded? Just because it's *deals* site doesn't mean every deal here is gonna be one you like. It doesn't mean this site has controls of what those deals are or what prices those deals come in. So you are gonna comment something along the lines of "well if it's not a deal it shouldn't be on the site." So this goes back tot he original reason why I said anything about prices. Other then the occasion deals thrown out for GREAT deals on .22 ammo that sell out in like 5 mins. .15 was the lowest price you could get .22 ammo. I saw was cuz it's .12 cents now. The point wasn't about the price. It was about DEAL. Since it was the lowest price, it was the current deal.

Now as for people wanting admins to regulate the posts. My bad for thinking people who use this site were grown ups who know how to take care of themselves. Who were gun owners who believed in the Constitution and didn't buy into the who liberal entitlement movement. But then I see people crying about what is deal and what isn't deals. Calling for the admins of this site to regulate posts. Sorta reminded me of lefties crying for gun control. But instead of gun control, people here want price control. For their own convenience, they want only posts that have prices that they like, forget what real world and what market prices are. Well I guess I know now. Can't expect much from hypocrites.

The best thing is for people to refuse to buy anything until prices drop. Just because .15cents is cheaper than a while ago doesn't mean we should buy it. Only the gougers will tell us that it's a good price and we should pay it cause it's a deal. I'll wait until Walmart has it on the shelves at .04-.05 cents a round.

Would rather not shoot anything than feed the neckbeards that helped make this shortage last this long. Next time there will be more of us prepared to avoid this mess.

Pretty sure you can find out pretty easily and get in contact with them. From what I've seen, they actually listen to their clients which is a great thing. No idea how to get in contact with them though.

I am in no way saying the high prices are right. You are a smart shopper, looked for, waited on and bought when the price was right for you. Good for you. Others are buying at high prices for whatever reason. Need, ignorance, impatience, lack of options. I mean you just nailed one of the major issues there is. People buying multiple bargain deals just for resell and helping maintain those high prices. Another issue is people are buying up the bargain deals with buying limits for stock purposes. And I really don't have a problem with that. I'm working on a small stock as well. But you have others you have a few thousand rounds as stock and buy up even more. For every 1 post on here of someone saying "I just bought 5 of (bargain limit one per ammo)", you see 5 or more saying something along the lines of not being able to get even 1 cuz it sold out that quickly. And are left with no choice but the higher priced crap. And well the demand is just there for the ammo,

The admins of any site clearly have a vested interest in maintaining standards/rules for their own site. If an admin decides that posts wasting people's time with gouging prices isn't allowed, then it's not allowed.

Yes, everyone is an adult that can decide on their own what their standards are for acceptable pricing. That being said, letting their site turn into a free for all for price gougers makes it relatively useless for the bulk of users, which translates into less hits/visits, which equals less ad revenue etc...
This site isn't some sort of public service, or funded with tax dollars. It is a private enterprise that has every right to set whatever rules they want (and listen to the desires of their users to have less price gouging listed).

I'm all for the admin listening to their customers. That's good business. And as a customer, I appreciate it.

My point is the customer complaining about ads or prices and trying to get things regulated and expecting the admin to cater to their desires is childish and down right liberal politics. "I can't get what I want so I want someone else to do something for me that I can't do for myself." If you don't like the price of some store, ignore them. Move on. Truth of the matter is the price of ammo is what it is EVERYWHERE, not just on this site. IF there was a business offering lower prices, someone would have posted on the site. Just because the ad is no longer on this site will not change the price of the ammo. It just means people looking for that ammo will have to go to that store's site directly to find the price and be disappointed. And this site won't get the pay-per-click revenue for those who either don't mind the price or want the ammo bad enough to get it at that price.

And the prices are what they are BECAUSE of the consumer. People buying up the low cost ammo for "stock". I constantly see people say, "I just bought 5 bricks of the (current low priced limit one per customer)!" Great so that's 4 other people who couldn't get one. And again, that's their right, I honestly don't fault them for taking advantage. But I do think it's pretty hypocritical for that same person to then go whine about price gauging when they are part of the reason for it, while screwing 4 other people from getting the ammo at a decent price.

I have no issues with how this site does what it does at all. They wanna regulate ads. More power to them. My issue is with the people who use this site and wants the site to regulate to their desires. This site does not control the prices, nor has the power to control the prices of ammo or anything else. All they do is offer a easy way for consumers to get in touch with business who are offering goods are prices consumers are willing or unwilling to pay for.

I have had very little problem finding 22lr ammo and just bought my first 22 a month ago. I have not paid over $30.00 a brick, these prices are absurd!!! Everyone just needs to band together and refuse to pay those prices and give it a month or two then the market will balance itself back out and everyone will be paying $25/$30 a brick...

Agreed but right now the lower caliber ammo is the new "must have" christmas present. Just like the people that buy ps(#) and xbox(#) to resell it before christmas, its happening for ammo. There is plenty of this ammo on (gun)broker.com way overpriced.. even more than the links you'll find here. Don't get me wrong its capitalism at its best but it still sucks.

And this was my point from last week: there is absolutly no 22lr ammo on this site anymore. There are exactly two "deals" in 22lr and one of them is the mods telling us not to post over a dime a round. So one "deal" left from 6 months on TWENTY grain solid points.

With the limited amount of 22lr ammo, it behooves the buyer to put in notifications with all the vendors that will have deals, because as soon as say, for example, Cabela's puts their "bucket of bullets" on the website they are gone while people are waiting for SG to get updated.

What's faster:
Vendor emailing notification...update person getting email...posting update...then you the buyer getting notified...you the buyer going to vendor's website...viola Out of stock by the time you got there.

Or getting notified, following the link automatically sent to buyer, click, purchase done. Again, which do you think is faster?

Part of the allure of gun.deals is browsing at everything. In this regard, SG makes money by disseminating product information for their vendors. What will happen next is since there is not even ammo porn to look at, people will stop looking here with great frequency and SG will lose the "click-to-get-paid" banner advertisement.

Liberty really does benefit everyone!

Read this:
"DO NOT post 22LR ammo over 10cents per round ****unless it's target ammo that is actually worth the premium****"

Probably answers your question.

not admin but they don't necessarily flag deals until users report deals. Just get in there and report a deal if it's for 22lr over the price limit per round. I searched for the ammo you're talking about and I don't see it on SG.

Hey Admins,

Good on you for posting this, now how about actually enforcing it?

Profiteers are still listing ridiculously overpriced stuff (eg. the 0.17/rd rem goldens, the 0.18/rd winchester black box, and the fed. bulk at 0.17/rd).

Perhaps a set of guidelines, and bans on the companies that decide to post anyways? Maybe a "black list" of sellers that are known rip off artists?

It's too bad the live inventory tracking on here shows the expensive rounds still being sold.

Anyway to filter that to only show regular priced stuff?

Now if admin will step up and put limits on all ammo. Why should .22lr shooters be the only ones privy to SENSIBLE and SANE pricing?

Can't make the cut, can't make the post. Period.

Target and ball:

9mm max .25cpr shipped
45ACP max .35cpr shipped
10mm max .40cpr shipped
357MAG max .45cpr shipped
44MAG max .50cpr shipped

223/5.56
max .25cpr shipped (steel or import)
max .30cpr shipped (brass 55gr)
max .35cpr shipped (brass 62gr)

5.45x39 .16cpr shipped (any)

7.62x39 .25cpr shipped (any)

The principles of supply and demand are as good as wet powder when spineless consumers just whip out their wallets and pay any price without reasonably questioning it's worth. Make your own limits and stop the madness. Stop before we become so washed, lost and pathetic that we begin believing it should cost .50c or .75c or even a dollar for every pull of the trigger. I mean come on. $250 AR triggers? GTFOH.

If you think it can't happen, just take an conscious look at some of these "deals" and how an alarming amount of "slick gunners" enthusiastically justify some of these shit for brain price trends.

Wake up or look forward to bragging about that box of $1 a round steel 223 you got or that case .25cpr CCI Stinger you just got a deal on.
