Gotta Love Powder Valley

Shiraz said:
Listen, kid, the reason these are being sold below MAP is because we are getting out of the Vortex line. You jumping up and down isn't going to stop us from getting our money out of the products. So calm down and go back to chambering barrels before you snap a vein!
Shiraz, I was kind of surprised to see these disparaging remarks from a forum member and businessman such as yourself who has in the past usually kept his posts professional and not allowed his emotions to take control in responding to a post.
 
I have seen numerous people get called out for whatever reason and they finally defend themselve's from a personal attack. God, he is a human and we all can take so much.
 
Gotta give Bruno's a +1...Lester and Amy have always been fair on my orders for the last dozen years that I have done business with them. You can't compare a business like PV to Bruno's, volume rules. For that matter, I have dealt with ALL the site sponsors and never had a problem.
 
Maybe it gives you lots more choices for a short time. Then it only gives you it's choices. Careful what you wish for.

I agree as well. Besides the derogatory remark calling another member who is younger than him a kid, there were no other parts of his remark that then became professional. The fact that Ryan is a talented gunsmith and shooter, insinuating that all he had the ability to do was to chamber barrels was also disappointing. I may now be in the minority, but I have lost respect for the poster not only for his business practices but also his unprofessional way he handled himself on this thread.

Again, sorry to the original poster for the derail.
 
Quote by Shiraz:
Probably so, but the price we sell it at is not gouging. It is a reflection of how much we have to pay for it. Hodgdon is not taking any new customers, so we have to buy from others to resell this powder. Powder Valley has been dealing with Hodgdon for eternity so they get their shipments and prices at more favorable terms. Before you start labeling companies as "gougers", you need to understand the circumstances.

Also, we happened to get some Varget in and it was gone in one day. We know that we could have got another $40 a keg, but chose not to overcharge.
Check our bullet prices that we buy direct from companies like Berger and Sierra. Compare them on the web and see if you are getting gouged.




Why would you buy it to sell at those prices , Are you saying you can't get the same price as everyone else can ? Also why would you ask another $40 per keg ? And yes your bullet prices are great so name the supplier of the powder...No malice intended..Just asking as I am buying powder locally and its $175 a jug
 
Arrogance is NOT a virtue and I choose to talk with my wallet instead of complaining about it.
Don't like a business, don't give them your money.
