What items specifically are unreasonably high?
 
I understand that prices will fluctuate most definitely in these times as other vendors have followed suit, but Midway's prices are up there in comparison to others.

I'll be spending my money elsewhere, and I'm sure it won't hurt their feelings.
 
Didn’t they charge extra at on time to package things. I can not remember but it was always an extra 5 dollars or so
 
#capitalism baby

(this also includes their dip in sales when prices get pushed to high and people are offended)
 
Since we don't have any idea of his costs of goods, we can't really make him the fall guy. He probably works off of a percentage of the cost of goods. If those costs go up, you're going to pay more for your product.

Who knows where the blame goes.

it Would take 3-4 days for you to get it same state 3 hour drive.
the shipping must have gotten better.
He didn't force you to choose horseback as your shipping method. Pay the extra $3-5 and get something faster if it bothers you.

A company who "ships quickly" get it in the mail within a day or 2 after the order is placed. You determine how long it sits in transit.

I did pay for the shipping

how the hell do you know what I paid for

Sorry I offended you by talking bad about how their shipping use to suck. I stated in all of my post maybe it got better
 
I placed an order Friday night. According to tracking it will be here in Socal on Thursday. The trick with Midway is wait for a sale AND wait for the almost monthly free shipping for orders totaling over 49.00.
unfortunately, with reloading supplies, you don't have the luxury of waiting for a sale and/or free shipping. if the order isn't placed in 20 seconds, it is OOS.

sure midway and others are saying they can sell it "cheap" and at least some of the buyers are turning around and doubling that price on gunbroker, so midway might as well get that profit.

Well we don't know what the op was looking at that got him riled up. The only thing that seems to be in short supply is primers and powder. And even powder has been starting to come up more frequently. To condemn Midway for a commodity that is very short on supply and very long on demand seems harsh. Now if there is someone that is significantly cheaper than Midway across a broad spectrum of items please share.

Order a lot from midway but do think their shipping sucks. I live about three hours from them and shipping takes a week. Not entirely their fault but I have to blame someone
 
You pays your money, you purchase from who you want to purchase from. If you don’t like the service, you don’t like the price, you don’t like the color of the box they package it in, Go Somewhere Else. Its your choice.

The American way, vote with your dollar not with your words.
 
One of the main reasons I use midway is fast shipping. They are only a few hours from me, but if I order by 5, I'll generally have my stuff the next day. You have to use the ups ground option, not the cheapest if it's small stuff or it goes through the miserable usps sure post.

That is interesting information
Looks like I was misinformed on the family aspect..

"Matt Fleming has been an integral part of the growth of MidwayUSA over the past 20 years. His exceptional leadership qualities, attention to detail and focus on serving customers make him the perfect choice to lead MidwayUSA into the future,” Potterfield said.
Fleming is the first non-family CEO of MidwayUSA.

I'll take MidwayUSA over CTD A N Y D A Y!

Hey Larry over at Midway...

Fuck you and your jacked up prices...
Whiney a$$..... Take your business and whining else where. Guessin' Larry and Brenda will squeeze by having satisfied millions of other customer millions of times since 1977. Potterfields are the creme' de la creme' of gun nuts. What has your whiney a$$ contributed to the shooting sports?? Oh, yeah.....whining.
 
I would still like to know exactly what triggered the op.

Thats actually not bad. I ordered a scope from Optics Planet December 18th 2020 for Christmas. The NEW updated expected ship date is February 2022. I will wait it out, as the current price is WAY over what I had ordered it for.
The US dollar is on its way out due to all the money printing. Its trash now. Prices for everything is way up, but the marxist media is all hush hush.

Just waiting for the word.
