I'm talking about the guns already in stock, too.
Once again, supply and demand . . . . the guns will bring $XXX plus $100. Why should you expect them to sell them to you for $100 less than someone else is willing to pay? Suppose someone dumped a million AR 15s on the market, creating an increased supply? The store would either have to sell items already in stock at a loss, or at cost, or just sit on them. I bet you would not be willing to pay $100 more for their suddenly hard-stock items out of the goodness of your heart, would you? You would buy where you could buy cheapest. If they can get $100 more, then more power to them. Again, it is Capitalism.

I don't understand why people can't understand basic concepts of free-market enterprise.
