pretty soon the ol sks wont be getting used at all

 

I reload. My mini 30 makes a good caribou gun.

 

Wish I had time to reload

 

I try my best not to buy from Cheaper Than Dirt. They did some price gouging on alot of items, including ammo, a few years back. If it's an item I can't find elsewhere then I'll buy from them ..... but if I can find it someplace else then I thumb my nose at them.

 

yeah and they're shipping rates can be high if you buy a 1.95 item, be prepared to spend 7.95 or more in shipping

 

Was not my deal, read this thread....

What the hecks up with Ammoman - AR15.COM

Here's a cut/paste from a site staffer:

He blatantly misreprented a product then refused to correct the transaction when confronted with his deception. Because he attempted to defraud a member of this website, we kicked him off. He proved himself to be a dirt bag and is not welcome on AR15.com.

And another thread to what actually happened:

Screwed by AMMOMAN.COM aka Discount Distributors - AR15.COM

I recently placed an order for a Chinese SKS "Vietnam Bring back" , well worn (as described on the website). I had read the description and looked at the photos and the price was within reason so I purchased it. I opened the package immediately after the UPS delivery and upon visual inspection everyhting was as expected EXCEPT-----It is import marked plainly on the barrel.
Within 15 minutes of being off the UPS truck I emailed and asked politely for a return/refund as the gun was not as advertised at all. I stated I was not angry, that mistakes happen and all I wanted was a refund and instructions to complete a return. The email was answered with an emphatic NO REFUNDS ON FIREARMS. They "wont take the risk of missing parts". I was offered a $100 credit because "they will take my word for it". I then called ERIC and told him NICELY, that I wanted to talk about this and he states he will not refund or allow a return and that his site states no returns on firearms. He told me again, $100 or nothing and if that is not good enough I should take any other actions I feel are needed. I had previosly told him I wasnt angry and now he lit my fire and I called him something like a scumbag rip off artist and he slammed the phone.
I have no problem with the return policy EXCEPT when an item is blatantly misrepresented. He told me I should have asked if it was import marked. Well why would I, he is a major supplier and his add clearly states "We stand by all of our descriptions" and if it is marked it is not a Vietnam Bringback". I certify this statement is 100% correct and true. This was a blatant ripoff and he has no business ethic to stand up to his mistake. If anyone has any advise as to other actions I can take to get my money back I wouldappreciate it. I paid by a Postal Money Order.

 

I'm the same way now. My Cheaper than Dirt experience was back in Dec 2005. Back in 2009, when ammo was so hard to find, Cheaper than GOLD had PMC .380 FMJ ammo for $49.99 A BOX OF 50! A dollar a shot for .380? Cheaper than Dirt
