I bought a Walther PPQ M2 22LR at Al Flahertys for $650 while gotenda was selling them for $730 I've seen Tenda relist them on and off, the latest being for $830. If people are willing to buy, I guess all the power to them. I've seen a lot of fair prices at Al Flahertys through all this and I will go out of my way to support them.

Yea, I noticed the same trend. Tenda was selling P320s for significantly more than Al's

I have been watching quite a few retailers, and I haven't seen any evidence of price gouging.

I’ve been keeping track on the shadow 2 since it was on my list. It was around $1300 last year, $1500 this year preban, and $1800 post ban. It’s mostly sold out on primary markets and going for $2-3k on secondary markets. I got a practically new one for $999 on May 30th and it’s definitely a nice gun which punches above its weight. All i can say is “while supplies last”. The price gouge is real but it’s up to you if you think it’s worth the inflated price of admission.
