As I said in my previous post and Uncle TK described in his, Midway is more than likely buying those scopes a hundred at a time and is a top tier dealer, and your dealer is probably buying one or two. If I was a betting man, I’d say your dealer probably pays more for that scope than Midway sells it for.Just for clarification, it was an Sig Sauer Tango-MSR 1x10x28. It was $ 579.99 before tax. Midway has them for $ 463.99 with free shipping. I understand the small business dilemma, but it stills seems a bit much of a difference. I guess the only true way to judge the price difference would be to know their inventory costs.
A local business needs to have a bunch of instant gratification customers that want something TODAY and don’t price shop. Unfortunately, I’m not that kind of guy and am forced to stretch my dollars as far as they can.
