Commemorating 1 Year Since My Last CTD Purchase
3/9/2012 3:34:47 PM
Was going through my e-mail deleting old stuff I don’t need to keep, and I came across the confirmation for my last order from Cheaper Than Dirt. It was one year ago today.
I have not missed them for one second and I have probably saved a hundred dollars.

Never bought anything from them, never will.

I have had several orders with them and not one problem and were all delivered early.

I haven't ordered and prob won't. I don't look at their site when i search for something.

Nothing wrong with the variety and quality of their products. Nothing wrong with their prices. They are incredibly fast shippers.
They just screw you on shipping charges if you are not paying attention. If your order is filled from 3 different warehouses, you pay for shipping 3 times. I hate sneaky business.
I would rather put the energy into shopping around that balancing orders between CTD warehouses.

CoC- you can disagree / criticize in a respectful manner.
:. if this tread goes into the "toilet," I will lock it, trash it, administer official warnings to those being disrespectful, and if one is disrespectful to me I will request a suspension or banning.
Maybe someone can recollect what happened to PK90. At that time I was not that active here, so I missed the particulars. He was banned, and I consider him a friend, not just a member.

It's all about respect so 88formula has it correct. I am not here to sensor, but to MODERATE.
Please have fun with this site, it is for us to enjoy - just be careful how you do it.

They only support the 2nd Amendment in this forum. The 1st is already over-represented through a million Liberal forums.
If stating unfavorable truths about a sponsor gets you banned from this forum, I will happily leave.
I made the personal choice to stop using them because I felt their shipping charges are unreasonable.
I am not encouraging others to follow. I was just observing that I have gone a year now and have not missed them one bit. I used to use CTD almost exclusively and they used to get about $1,000/year from me in ammo, cleaning products and accessories sales. Those $$ are still being spent, just now at SG, NatchezSS, PSA, and others.

dontalo- if you or anyone else was disrespectful before I made my post, they would receive an off thread IM/PM from me. It seems like being a Moderator and merely stating what already is in the CoC is some kind of auto-effrontery to those posting after the "refresher" on CoC. I take things off-line before things get crazy and make my advisements as I see necessary.
I am not the thought police. Members can lurk or contribute to a post. Posting "stir the pot" comments are dealt with on a case by case handling of said comments or comments.
I did not say you or anyone else DID anything wrong. Perhaps I was presumptuous or overly concerned on the relative tone. Nonetheless I am done here.

I will merely say that I do not shop with CTD as I find their ethics and way of doing business less than impressive.

LD,
No offense, please. I was joking in my comment about the 1st Amendment. I was not griping about the moderation of the forum.
You were right to put up the caution flag. Many times things are written without a lot of forethought.
