I completely support CTDs right to raise prices according to market. I also support my own right to buy elsewhere.

More asswipe panic buying leading to shortages and high prices. People are such jerks.

I do not. I understand supply and demand but, raising your prices as soon as you hear about the ban without being short of supply.....is a ripoff. Now, if it was 4 or 5 months gone by and stock is low, then I would not complain. My $0.02

I still remember those that took advantage from the last panic. I also blame those who pay said rediculous prices.

CTD is taking it right up their wazoo, all over facebook. Thousands of people posting middle fingers to CTD. I stopped buying from them years ago. They have zero customer loyalty.

Here is a link to the petition to stop the ban.... https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/pet...ition/XrvVh1cj
I signed it.

This is the root.

How can you blame any company for selling something at a price that others are willing to pay? I think Midway and PSA actually cut prices. What if CTD gets stuck when ATF bans its sale. Then they will be stuck with ammo they can't sell. They want to gamble and people are supporting it. If no one bought at the inflated price then the price would drop for sure. However people will buy till it is gone.
