[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Need advice for Tomorrows trip to Dicks Sporting Goods.......

Posted: 4/4/2006 8:08:20 PM EDT

Well, dicks was having that sale on Remington UMC, 89.60 for a case of .223. But it seems it was a misprint because it says boxes of 50 and people are saying its only boxes of 20. So now what am I to do?

I really want, no I really need a few cases of ammo for $89.60

So how am I supposed to talk them into giving me a few cases for $89.60 each?

Nowhere in the Paper did it say "Dicks is not held accountable for misprints."

Can someone give some points, tips, advice on getting a case for $89.60????

You cant buy what they dont have. Most of the more common rifle ammo seems to come in 20s. Blackhills and some of the others are exceptions.

Yes, they do not have 50rnd boxes but they can get 1000rnds of ammo and I can pay $89.60 for that.

You could just steal it. Misprints are not false advertising.

You may still get a case for that much, but to them as a company a "case" could be 10 * 20rnd boxes....Its a case......

If you have an ad that says a case for that much, take it with you. Best thing you can do

Posted: 4/4/2006 8:25:30 PM EDT

[#18]

Best thing you could do is take the ad with you and speak with a manager. The regular employees will not be able to help you. Generally when it has anything to do with price adjustments a manager is needed because the employee has no power to change the prices.

All you need... and as was said above, if it doesnt work right, ask for a manager. Either you will get it or you wont. No garuntee.

Posted: 4/4/2006 8:27:51 PM EDT

[#21]

Wait, before I go in to see a manager, we are sure there are no 50 round boxes just 20, and were sure it was a misprint?

Hows about ya call them? Or if closed call before you leave....

Arround here, when there is a misprint, they put a sign at the front of the store stating it was a misprint.
And I assure you, the customer is not always right.

Well I just did the math, If its in 50rnd boxes, it will be $89.60 for 1000rnds. But if its only 20rnd packs, gotta buy 50 boxes to get 1000rnds, then the cost is going to be $244 by my math, granted im tired as all hell and can barely think.

If its gonna cost $224 to get a case, I will be forced to continue buying SS109 in 720rnd packs for $169 or switch to Wolf

Just buy it from the Ammoman.

You know if you did further math you'd discover it would still be cheaper at 244$ per case over the SS109
224/1000= 22.4 CPR
169/720= 23.4 CPR

best advise i can give you is don't shop at DICK's.

they RUINED the Galyans we had. it was in business about 4-5 months then dicks took over. It's a damn shame what those assholes did to that chain.

Same deal for me. I ended up getting a rain check for 60 boxes of "Rem UMC 50 pack box". My story is posted in the NY Section of the hometown thread. Basically there was a spot on the shelf where the REM UMC 50 round value packs were with the exact info listed and the price $4.48 per 50 round value pack. No sign indicating that the ad was incorrect as printed. I was even told that they had a specific amount (9 boxes) when the ad came out but it was gone by 9:00am on sunday. Im not holding my breath, but well see what happens

tag for update

Walmart's idea of a case of WWB 40 round value packs in 10 boxes. 400 rounds.
