Off of their so called brothers...
I have no problem someone finding cheap prices and reselling it on gunbroker so similar site. But not here while taking advantage of tbh’ers.

I'm driving a truck for a living now. Last week I picked up a load, couldn't talk about it then, but it's delivered now so my bag order is done. I hauled 43,947lbs of ammo to an online retailer from an Aguila plant/warehouse.
The warehouse was pretty much empty. They only had enough ammo for maybe 3 more trucks. I asked to buy some ammo and their prices were fair. Higher, but not by much. Unfortunately, they had nothing I needed or wanted. While speaking to the head guy, he told me the ammo shortage started before Covid. Covid was just the finishing blow.
At the distributer I delivered to, in North Carolina (will not name drop) I also asked to buy ammo. The head warehouse gal told me to go online and make a purchase and they'll give me what I bought right then and there. Jumped at the chance for more ammo. Till I saw the price. >90c per round. I'm talking about 9mm, .556 and 7.62. The cheapest ammo was selling at over 3 times its cost. When I asked why, I was told, "To compete with other distributors." That didn't make sense to me. I thought that to compete, you kept prices lower, not raised them.
So long as people keep buying overpriced ammo, it'll stay that way. Need to stop the demand to do the price

People who line up at stores to buy it just to resell, I do have a problem with. They are essentially creating the “shortage”. They are most definitely *** holes.

I see it both ways. Or just hold it and put out one day only a week but rotate it. Let them sit out side a couple hours every morning only to tell them not today keemosabe

If anyone has to resort to over ridiculously gouging on a couple boxes of ammo to make a few bucks then they obviously need it worse than I do.
It’s like people rushing to the gas station at any natural disaster or crisis to fill their tanks to save a couple of bucks.... if that makes a huge impact on your life then your already bad off.
