Screaming ammo deal

[swsig]

Someone really needs to invent a sarcasm font.

Well, we do have this little sarcastic guy:

On the Porsche forum we use green print to represent sarcasm.

Man I'm love that company and I'm going to get some of that fine ammo!

Too difficult to read, and considering it's what they use on the Porche Forum, waaaaay out of my price-range.

 

[Sevens]

British racing green? On a Porsche forum?

Wankers!

 

[Rob613]

Someone was waking through the warehouse and walked by pallets of broken case and old ammo and said hmmm we should sell this...

They probably got a raise.

 

[ajgunner]

Do you get a tube of K-Y jelly with that screaming deal?

Or perhaps some cheap lipstick----after all, I am used to a little bit of kissing just before the loving.

 

[fiasconva]

I guess they are up to the same old price gouging tricks that were used during the last shortage. Some things never change.

I was checking ammoseek a few minutes ago and found a company that had 91 cases of Speer Lawman 147gr 9mm...1000 round cases.

By the time I filled out my cart stuff it had all sold out.

I have mass amounts of 115 and 124gr 9mm, but need some 147 gr for shooting suppressed.

I bet the green font is related to the old joke about hiring someone to "paint the porch green"...?

Too difficult to read

Yeah maybe, that forum has a white background.

I still love that ammo buy!

 

[84Carrera]

That's a bit better, no British racing green. HA!

 

[Echo40]

That shade of green is better, stands out better against the dark gray background.

 

[84Carrera]

That shade of green is better, stands out better against the dark gray background.

But folks can't afford it

Never will I purchase anything from Cheaper than Dirt. They've been screwing gun owners for far too long. I recommend the rest of you do the same.

You want us to screw gun owners also?

 

[snuf]

This isn't the 1st time CTD has done this.
They take advantage of every shortage/panic that comes along

Gotta laugh at this one!

Sarcasm seems to give a lot of people trouble on this forum.lol

Sarcasm has become increasingly difficult to detect here on the internet. After awhile of reading peoples honest yet completely absurd opinions on a daily basis, simply saying something absurd can no longer be safely assumed to be made in jest.

I mean, seriously... Haven't you ever seen someone bragging about some "fantastic deal" they got when in reality said deal wasn't quite so fantastic or otherwise they got completely ripped off?
Heck, haven't you ever seen someone shilling for a terrible deal online, trying to convince others that it was good?

If anything, this is sadly the sort of thread that I see made by someone who legitimately believes that they found a fantastic deal that they want to share with everyone or otherwise by a drive-by shill. (Particularly the latter, considering it's Cheaper than Dirt.)

CTD..... Cheap Tight*** D***s. I really thought I had seen it all from them during the last shortage, but this is a new low. On top of the ridiculous offering, which "may" include damaged cases, the smarmy tone, where they act like they they are doing you a favor, kills me.

 

[pharmer]

Why so serious? $.80/rd for rando 9mm is "cheaper than dirt." Like one of our former "feckless leaders" would say "It all depends on what your definition of 'dirt' is." Joe
