I worked at Gander for quite awhile while I was going to school. Even with our employee discount the employees don't shop there. We would go the the LGS and buy our goods.
10 minutes...if you are walking. 2-3 minutes by car. Green Top is another 5 minutes by car from either of them.
but that is no excuse for price gouging.
The people that work there are always ridiculously helpful and usually quite knowledgeable
Most retailers will stock what they can sell for a profit, and close out what they can't and turn to something else. Maybe there's a lesson somewhere in that.
Exactly! Folks just don't realize how liberal, anti-capitalist all this "price gouging" nonsense is.No such thing as price gouging at GM - not when people are WILLINGLY spending their money at the prices stated. The consumers set the prices - when inventory doesn't move, it is reduced to a price that will get someone to buy it
From a current NoVA resident, that was good for a laughOr, if it were in Northern Virginia, 10 minutes by car, 2-3 minutes if you are walking!
Been there, done that. Never again!
Here in the DC area we have no GM, Academy, Cabelas, Bass Pro Shops, etc. - you have to go to Richmond or Baltimore or further. Dick's Sporting Goods and Wally World are all over the place but not all of them keep a good outdoor section going and they restrict themselves to "sporting" long guns. There are some very good independent dealers in Northern VA which helps alleviate the problem.
Agreed.Gander Mtn opened a store in the Richmond VA area a couple of years ago,....their prices were .......
Then Bass Pro Shops built a store about 10 minutes away.
