I also wouldn't be shocked if some stores raise prices a bit because they know they will probably sell them. Maybe factor in 10% more than MSRP just in case.

Stores are saying that prices have bumped a little because they aren't offered savings previously such as bulk orders and whatnot but honestly I wouldn't be surprised if they snuck a little markup on top of those increases as well.

But hey. More the merrier I guess.

Theres a significant risk of having stock on hand after the writ drops, so I wouldn’t really be too upset at that.

It’s just business. Noones running a charity here.

I don't disagree, especially how hard they got shafted with 5/2020 OIC, but certain stores are putting some VERY hefty markups over other stores despite it all coming from the same distributors.

Then again given the "NR tax" or whatnot perhaps some of these are the distributors doing.
