Just like dealers that did, around me those that took advantage when everyone giving the screwing, were the first to disappear and go out of business when everything came back around. Unfortunately then the scalpers started getting rid of everything they themselves couldn't use for going prices, I just wish no one would have bailed them out and made em eat it all!
I am quite lucky and have shot benchrest for years, so I know many who do not operate like this and believe in shooters taking care of shooters, bit shooter screwing shooters, so they always know someone willing to help others get by, even to the point I have had some give me primers and powder, and refuse money, just ask that when I get the chance replace what they gave me! This is what shooters used to be, those that are not, I have little use for!
