I doubt it's a conspiracy, probably someone getting lazy when listing entries, and not updating it correctly... probably rationalized as "what difference does it make when it's going to sell out immediately anyways?" The sad thing is they're not wrong.... l

For bulk itll be long gone before that point. .22lr sucks, the entire point is its cheap. During obamascares ive never seen bulk go past 15-16 cpr. After that people aren't going to pay it unless they're desperate.
Walmart in West Boylston yesterday. Surprisingly there is a good amount of 30-30.
.243 not so popular huh? I'm a little surprised....
476 I guess I'm slacking compared to the rest of you. But it might be because I usually order cases so I'm not saving on shipping
Do you actually trust this number? They can't calculate cost per round correctly.
Has anyone in Mass reached their household storage limit?

Haven't cracked the foundation yet, but there's still time.
Ouch!!
I hoped you gave a good cough when they inserted the pain.
But, at least you were able to get ammo

You can also choose to sell some later down the line to recoup some loss. However, selling for a greater cost will in a way further continue the price hike trends, and as a collective hurt fellow gun owners wallets. Somewhere there’s a trolley cart meme that can be created based on this moral quandry.
14 hrs later and theres still .357 sig and .40 ammo available. And some pricey .22
Prices aren't spectacular, but its still there.

I did in my last order alone.
Yeah, they probably are grabbing a cached value or something that isn’t updated instantly when the price changes.
Does anyone in mass actually care?

I am getting the impression that all the numbers for out-of-stock ammo at TSUSA represent the last time they were in-stock and offered for sale. When the ammo comes back into stock, the numbers get revised (upward, obviously) and maybe some numbers slip by them.
This is especially frustrating if you are waiting for a certain semi-obscure brand/type/weight of ammo to come back into stock... and then when it finally does, the price doubles from what has been listed on their site for weeks if not months.
I don't know how they could avoid this, but planning your purchases based on posted prices for out-of-stock ammo is a loser's game.

That is absolutely true.

If you mean, have I run out of room in my house? Yes. But this is where having a second house comes in handy...especially if it's not in Mass!

I feel your pain kev. I am on and off all day at work and I haven't hit the right time in about three weeks. And I'm a freaking prime member. I don't go for the notifications, though. I like the rush of the random hit.

Notifications?
Notifications?
I don't need no stinckin' notifications!
No seriously, I don't. If it wasn't for TSUSA(coupled with my desire for more ammo) I'd have paid off another CC and a chunk of another instead of reloading a significant portion of my payments on purchases. Really not sure if I should

I think they release stuff on weekends just to mess with us and have a good laugh
I actually think they do it to be fair to those that aren’t around computers all day.
I got he alert for 9mm while I was in line at five guys yesterday (yum yum)..ordered a couple boxes so I can get to the range, but wasn’t ordering a case at that price..
Watch some TRex arms videos and start practicing dry firing, sight alignment, other drills you can do without ammo while buying small amounts over time..that’s the name of the game..buy 100 rounds, bring 50 to the range...and make them count.dry firing, mag changes..all the stuff a lot of people don’t do because they just send bullets down range.
$45.00 on three orders since 6/15/20.
May not seem like much, but I'll bet I saved a shitload of money by NOT buying during the pandemic/panic, as I was well stocked already.
I'll continue to buy wisely, when I feel the need, but I refuse to be sucked into the frenzy wormhole.

Smart move. I bought pretty much all the ammo right before and when the market crashed so it was cheap then.

I got the text and saw the price and said no way. I'd like to have two thousand more but not for that money.
I'll admit, I know some of you shoot a lot more than I do, so of course you buy a lot more than I do.
I actually haven't been to the range much this year, so, I'm in good shape, supply wise.
Only the media and vengeful PDs who can make a big deal press conference out of 100 rds of ammo!Does anyone in mass actually care?

I've asked for notification for a particular brand of frangible 9mm for probably 6 months now, never received any Email.
