    Where do we draw a line in the sand with prices?

    I have been trying to get a Superdown Pro jacket for quite a while I haven't seen it on sale.

    Where do we draw a line in the sand with prices?

    I have tried to obtain used Kuiu stuff it's usually around the same price as the damn website. I have yet to figure out how to get more than 10 percent off Kuiu.

    Where do we draw a line in the sand with prices?

    100 percent agree there are a lot of logistics involved. I have used apps like imporyeti to see exactly what factory these companies import good from and look at factory prices. I check factory websites for the exact item. Some companies cover their tracks pretty well by having multiple company...

    Where do we draw a line in the sand with prices?

    I agree they do often have steep discounts, like you said it's mostly on undesired items which makes sense to get rid of stock. They also always have steep discounts on logo wear which I personally have no interest in, each to his or her own. These "steep" discounts still have plenty of room for...

    Where do we draw a line in the sand with prices?

    I wanted to be clear that I do not know this for fact I wasn't attempting to dispute it due to direct lack of knowledge. Sorry if it came off different. I had no problem with the other response besides them immediately opening with a lottery to win articles of clothing where they get slightly...

    Where do we draw a line in the sand with prices?

    This was my design for my own brand. I was discouraged from starting because of the massive influx of smaller brands saturating the market recently. It seems every day I see another facebook ad for a different hunting brand. Possibly an impeding crash of the market as well is a bit scary.

    Where do we draw a line in the sand with prices?

    That's why I simply said where do we draw the line as a market? Not that it will ever happen. There are American companies as well that seem to be decent but they miss the mark in a lot of areas. I know my handle is gear junkie, but for example, not one article of clothing from most of these...

    You responded to my thread about money grabs with a money grab? I don't know this for a fact nor do I have anything to back this up, but I believe this is wrong. The higher ups or the top dog in the big three are rolling in it.

    Where do we draw a line in the sand with prices?

    I want to discuss this because these companies are literally printing money on our dollar. The products are all made in foreign countries. The direct to consumer model that "saves" the end buyer money is a crock. These companies are buying 500 dollar jackets for 20-40 dollars a piece. Don't tell...

    WTS/WTT Things to watch out for to prevent being scammed.

    I know it seems law enforcement is busy infringing on gun owners rights, unfortunately for us we did not make the laws. Most of the time these "laws" get enforced when it is a must do and not the choice of the officer. In the current climate of this nation finding well suited individuals to...

    WTS/WTT Things to watch out for to prevent being scammed.

    This is incredibly selfish. For a lot of people it's not the same song and dance. Being educated is better than hoping. Maintaining the Status Quo and allowing these scammers to target unknowing fellow hunters is not the answer. Just because you know what a scammer is doesn't mean other people...

    WTS/WTT Things to watch out for to prevent being scammed.

    That was brought up in another forum. But if caution is adhered to you are ahead of the game. No matter what they do if you strictly use known protected ways of paying you should be protected. A lot of people are still completely unaware of what goes on. The thread itself could be a deterrent to...

    That's the goal hopefully the mods can make this a sticky.
