How many warehouses were the items coming from?
Be careful with CTD. During the panic they really raised their prices. I haven't shopped there since.
About 3 years ago Cabelas had a GREAT sale on powders so I bought a bunch.
One hazmat fee and one shipping fee. The powder came from 3 different states at 3 different times. Yes the order was completed and they kept me informed as to what was happening.
If a Cabelas is near you try having your order shipped to the store as you will avoid shipping charges.
Just make sure that your STATE SALES TAX does not cost more than the shipping.
I fail to see how those crooks stay in business, I wouldn't even think of using them unless it was a SERIOUS case of desperation!
If CTD were the only source on the planet for an item I really needed -- I would do without.
I only buy from CTD when I have to. But I make sure that all the items are sourced thru one warehouse. They are slick though, items have different prices in different warehouses.
About a month ago, I bought 10 boxes of CCI .22LR AR Tactical at Gander Mountain for 22.00 per box.
Last week My Cheaper than Dirt was asking $80.00 per box for the same ammo.
(375 COUNT)
CTD is on my ignore list also; catalog/flyer/email in the trash or hit delete without even looking. Their gouging during the shortage was anything but cheaper. I don't like their business model and will vote with my wallet.
I would walk thru a palmetto swamp bottom in knee deep mud kicking cottonmouths at every step before I buy anything from CTD.
It is hard for me to belive that anyone in the shooting community even checks their prices anymore, same thing with DICKS.
There is nothing I need so badly that I would resort to buying from CTD. People can buy from whomever their conscience will allow, for me, not happening.
I bought some stuff from them at a reasonable price 10 years ago. Then, it seemed like they changed, from Cheaper Than Dirt to Take 'Em to the Cleaners. Don't know. I sure don't deal with them.
I'd have to be getting a great deal to do biz with CTD...it's possible, but not likely ;)
Same here on buying 8 to 10 years ago they were good to go. Now no way they can starve....
I agree. Don't even give them a second thought!
I said I would have to be seriously desperate to buy from them but then since I refuse to even check with them I wouldn't know if they had what I need anyway! Those guys have a seriously flawed business practice and again I still can't understand how they get enough business to stay in operation!
