Thread: This is F**ked

The high consumers plan ahead and the casual shooter scratch around and get what they can from the retailers.

Primers will come. They will be more expensive because of freight costs, labour costs and inflation. Not 'cos someone was naughty on Trade Me.

I personally think you are off with your 1990s vision. A huge majority of the new Gen hunters are internet savvy and do a lot of there shopping online and trademe. Literally 1000s of hunting gear and kit sold daily on trademe, let alone what’s sold online (why do retailers have websites I wonder)

Just saying. If many pay $65 for a 100 primers. What becomes the new normal price? And what do retailers want to now charge?

I guess I want this thread to head you all to not buy in. Just wait if you can.

I’m not a rich guy and to enjoy my sport I want to be as fair and reasonably as possible.

We all mocked the toilet paper people right. This is similar.
