So when did understanding capitalism become dumbest post of the week material? I think maybe some of you may be a little confused

If I quit doing business with every business that did boneheaded crap I wouldn't be doing business with many people.. lol

I guess I'm stupid because I will continue to do business with them. Oh well I have been called worse. Coming from someone that lives in Houston doesn't really hold much weight anyway

I won't ever shop there again. Ill stick with midway or brownells

Yeah because the city in which I live somehow defines who I am. More idiocy, do they sell intelligence at CTD? It should be normal price since their customers don't seem to be wanting any of it.

Now that's an intelligent response. What does Houston have to do with this ridiculous debate anyway? Ive been to Brownwood, and I'm sure its a great place to live for some, maybe not for others. Its not for me, but you dont see me insulting someone just because they are from there. I continue to be amazed at some of the garbage I read between grown men on this and other forums. What ever happened to a good natured debate without insulting 4 million other people that live in Houston because someone doesn't agree with your opinion or actions? You do realize that many who live in Houston are from many other towns and cities, right? Some are even from small Central Texas towns, much like Brownwood, and now they are somehow lesser humans for making a living in Houston? Right....provided that the person making that judgement is small minded and myopic.

Its a free world, buy from whom you like, and don't buy from those you don't like. No one is making anyone buy from "gougers" and if someone chooses to spend their money there, it's their choice. It's supply and demand, coupled with capitalism in an ugly situation driven by pure idiocy from those the public elects. Simple as that....

Booner...I'll take the bait. You are not stupid for poorly choosing where to shop. You are demonstrating a low level of intelligence with your lack of understanding of how his socialist comment is way out of line. So I'll help the debate in terms you understand. I'm from Dallas and I think you are stupid. Does Dallas hold more weight?

Thats the popular thing to do right now but I dont trust them one bit. Once the dust settles they are going to have lost so many of thier past customers that they are going to have to sell to those agencies to make up for thier lost sales. CTD has already proven they care more about the dollar than anything else. This policy will probably change quicker than the price of thier P-Mags.

Is their greediness for the dollar what made you ask 2X what its worth for the ammo you are selling? Pot calling the kettle black????

Chris the city you live in doesnt define who you are but your post are a pretty good indicator of what type of person you are. Getting all butt hurt and calling people juvenile names over where they shop is pretty classy. Carry on....

First of all, I'm not butt hurt. Secondly, I will never pretend that paying 3,4,5 times the price of something is in any way intelligent when the same item can be bought for regular price. Stupid is as stupid does. Nor will I turn a blind eye to a company such as CTD and the people who continue to shovel their money at them just so I can appear "classy". Sorry if telling you the truth appears "juvenile", life is tough sometimes.

I'll bet they'll still keep rockin' on.

Too many uninformed and "So?" folks out there.

Hope I'm wrong.

I didn't say you couldn't shop where you want. I said if you have a problem with what CTD is doing your in the wrong country. Shop where you want to shop, pay what you want to pay, but stop whing about CTD because they are obviously charging what the market will bear or they would not be staying in business.

You don't like their prices, fine. You don't want to shop their, fine. You want to whine about what they are doing, take your socialist ideas about free markets elsewhere.

I just want to point out that it may be unwise to trash a company whose advertising dollars are spent on this site. That could lead to some unpleasant consequences.

They are allowed to sell their items for whatever price they deem the market will support. You are free to choose where you shop. No need to drop into name calling and such, that is childish, and I think more of most of the people on this forum than what I am seeing out this one thread. Can we please tone it down a bit?

OR... You could look at it THIS way... CTD advertises here because they realize this is their market and by appealing to the members of THF, they stand to make money. This thread should be an eye-opener to them concerning their current "public appeal" - and react (or not) accordingly.
