New Bodyguard 380 price?

I found one today at my local Ganger Mountain near Cleveland...said it was just in... wanted $524 :(
 
Paid $420 for mine almost a month ago at a gun shop in RI. I had to order mine from this particular gun shop but when I wanted to see one in person I went to another gun shop which I knew would have one in stock and they wanted $520 for it. A hundred dollar difference between 2 shops that are 10 minutes of each other. It was worth the couple days to wait for it, i'll say.

I paid 379.99 from Gander Mountain watertown NY
 
Just picked up an EAF from Sportsman's Warehouse for $359. I'm ~150 rounds in & it has been 100% reliable.

$429 for the S&W .380 Bodyguard at the local gun shop - good people. Out of the box 25 rounds WWB were flawless, 25 rounds of Fiocchi - flawless but then of the 25 rounds of Prvi PPU, six did not go bang, three of them did go on the second strike but the remaining 3 still did not fire. When reloaded and struck two more times they still did not fire. Just think, 475 more rounds of the Prvi to shoot. At seven yards, I am very happy with the grouping. Also, the 380 is much more comfortable to shoot than my old P3AT. After a few hundred break in rounds, I'll try some of my Double Taps for excitement.
 
Wow!
They have really come down.
Havent look here lately kinda gave up once I picked up a PF9.
I may have to resume the search after the New Year.
 
Just saw this link on another forum for $279 at GT Distributors. They happen to have a new store in Dallas, and I am going to be in Dallas tomorrow selling a rifle. May take some of the money and buy one of these!

I work for an LE distributor and Smith just lowered our selling price from $389 to $306

Isn't that reaching the point where you paid more than that for it? Seems to me it could rankle the hairs on some of the smaller gun shop owners.
