Budsgunshop... another company who gives no fucks about their customers

And here I thought he was ignoring me. I've crawled into his head and am now taking up space there rent free. Unfortunately, as I've discovered, it is pretty empty in there.

But since the OP is reading my comments, here is the response to his query:

"No, that is just the smell of the quality of your comments stinking up the place."

Dumbldorf for someone who bitches about whiners you sure have a lot of posts that are whining about it. And you really need to come up with some sort of new verbiage or quit reading the same book from 3rd grade over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over...

Wow I can tell that was the smartest thing you’ve ever said. And trust me that was the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard!

I didn't know a basement dweller was capable of so much wit. Imagine how much better you'll be when you get into High School.

i never understood how buds could run their business with such a low profit margin in the first place and employ a large number of people. while you may have spent thousands with them, be assured, the amount of money they actually made it profit was likely no more than $10-$50 profit per gun depending on the price.

They sell 220,000 firearms a year, so, let's just say they only make $50 per transaction.

That's not chump change. That's $11,000,000 income from operations.

$50 is the high end...firearm costing greater than $1000
how accurate is that figure that they sell per year b/c last year really was an atypical year for every FFL

Further upstream, you'll see the link to the story about Bud's that figure is a "normal" sales year. That is not counting the HUGE uptick in sales in the Obummer admin election year, etc. They sell 600 firearms every day, and that's their regular sales level.$50 may be on the high end, but then again they do not have huge overhead, like a giant storefront to maintain. In other words, they are doing quite well and the volume of business they do is amazing. And the fact that they maintain a BBB rating of A+ is also extremely impressive.

So, bottom line, you will always have a few idiots like the OP who grip about Bud's but the vast majority of their customers are pleased and keep coming back for their low prices.

Also, as I've mentioned before, keep in mind that local gun shop owners have and do regularly attempt to trash Bud's on gun forums because they realize what a threat Bud's is to their business.
