Did a search for Federal 150 LP Primers to get a feel for how well I did this weekend ($75/brick). My search returned a web retailer Federal Primer Shop.
The site makes a close approximation of the Federal Premium website, including their logo, but with the addition of Primer to it, rather than Premium.
Regardless, I fell for it, discovering every possibility of primers, including competing brands, at currently attractive prices. All seemed good, until I went to check out...I wasn't planning to buy, as I'm fully stocked, but I wanted to see full cost including shipping and HazMat.
Yep....PayPal, Zelle, Venmo, Bit Coin, etc being the only means of payment. About that time I started seeing the flash pop ups of the products being purchased.
Checking out the Federal Premium website I saw that they are still not doing web sales, and MSRP prices per sleeve remain well above what I paid...as expected.
Don't fall for it, guys...well, I know you wouldn't. But hoping that some newer members receive this warning ahead of a painful and costly mistake.
