Re: Spam Can Prices

Post by Mike »

I ordered a crate today, it cost me $40 more than the last one I ordered in December of 2012, close to $100 per can delivered, it took me several months to order because I really didn't want to pay that much more, even though I know that is the reality of ammo prices these days. Having said that, if I found cans at my LGS for $119 I would probably pay it to support them, I also know that a year from now that will be a good price so those cans I have in stock will be bargains.

As an example, several months ago I paid about $40 more than the going rate for my T53, now, that would be a good price, in a year it will probably be a bargain.

Online prices are reasonable, but locally $119 would be a good price for me. The three places near me that sell spam cans are charging $120, $149.99, and $169.99 respectively :big shock:. I need to order another crate quick before these BS SAFE Act restrictions kick in :angry4:.

Someplace (AIM I think) was just charging $69.99 a spam can last week for the rusty cans (ammo is still fine) :thumbsup:. Copes has decent prices and low shipping.
