i always check ammoseek.com before ordering ammo (always in case quantities). i don't recall seeing CTD anywhere near the cheapest, at least for 9mm and .223.

What's 7.62x39 going for lately?

SGAmmo is back up with limited offerings and is reasonable if you can get to it before they sell out, but they put more out after a few hours

*****Here's a dick move: I had several 1000 rounds of 9mm ball ammo, 115gr that I started selling to folks who said they *needed* the ammo. I moved up to 124gr for my competition guns and could have just used the 115gr for plinking or whatever. I tend to buy a lot at a time when prices are ok, which they have been until recently - especially target ball ammo, nothing special, but better than trying to throw your gun at an assailant, or worse - especially at Superman who is bulletproof but just ducks to avoid being hit by an empty pistol...
So, I see the ammo I sold at the cheap price I paid for it being sold by the guy I sold it to, who said he *needed* the ammo for protection, blah blah. He sold it for more than triple what I paid for it. Yea, it's his ammo now, and maybe he needs the money, but it kinda rubbed me the wrong way. No, it's nobody on this board, and no I'm not selling any more of my ammo.
Anyway, just my own experience with someone basically taking advantage of someone trying to do them a favor.
I guess I did them a favor.. Hope they *never* need another one from me...

It’s worth whatever people are willing to pay for it.

Back in 2012, I had a bunch of ammo on my Christmas list my wife requires each year. I just circled a bunch of stuff in their catalog, and she'd order some of it. Well, just BEFORE the Sandy Hook shooting, my wife had ordered some ammo for me. A spam can of 7.62x39 and other boxes. The spam can was listed in stock. If I recall one of the other boxes wasn't. A day or so later Sandy Hook happened. The spam can status went to back order. Come February, my wife got either a call, or email (can't remember) from CTD stating my ammo was in but there was a problem with my credit card going thru. They were generous enough to hold the ammo for us, but they'd have to re-enter it as a new order, and at 4x the price. So, I took my credit card to the nearest gas pump to test. Worked fine. Then I called Discover, and they said there were no attempts from CTD to charge the card. My wife got back on the phone with them, and ripped them for a while. I got the ammo, but vowed to never to do business with them again.
I remember the 99.99 Pmags. I remember when Obama was trying to ban M855 greentip ammo, and CTD upped the price, and actively updated the description to advertise it as armor penetrating ammo. They take shadiness to new depths

There's a search box?!?!
Most people here will say JoeBob is GTG.... He's been there for MDS guys in the past. Did a group buy on BCG's for people in Md when we couldnt find any from panic buying back in 12-13' . Dont believe everything you read.

joebob is solid. They hooked me up even when it was my own dumbass fault. I would never hesitate to order from them.

I would have contacted him and asked for the ammo back. Or the money.
You did not sell it to him to resell.

There are a lot of good online sellers.
Lucky Gunner, SG Ammo are two good ones for ammo. Sportsman Outdoor Superstore has been good. And a few others.

Agreed. I’ve never had an issue with Joe Bob. As luck would have it, I’m wearing my Joe Bob hoodie as I read that

You who that’s never happened to? CTD. Just sayin!

The JoeBob thread is a must read when it comes to sorting out truth Vs online whining. The evidence is overwhelming and JoeBob seems to be a standup business. More amazing is that the OP continues to deny wrongdoing.
CTD, on the other hand, has earned well deserved enmity. There is always some unprincipled cheapskate looking to pinch pennies, so when they are separated from their money, they should not be surprised.
