Not everyone has the same inventory, and not everyone has paid the same cost. Some keep inventory, and others wait until they've received an order (and then they'll back-order it themselves). Some end-users seem to assume that a retailer can order directly from a manufacturer whatever they want whenever they want and that they can expect to pay the exact same cost, but - in most cases - that isn't how the world works. Generally speaking, manufacturers don't keep inventory, but some distributors (and some retailers) keep inventory. Retailers and distributors buy what they can find when they can find it at prices that (they hope) will be competitive. Sometimes this means that they'll pay less than whatever they've paid previously, and sometimes this means that they'll pay more than whatever they've paid previously. But whatever they pay, they need to add a percentage (just to cover their costs), and that number is the number that you're now complaining about.How is it logical that the synthetic is $40 more then beech? Is that one sling swivel worth that much - or does this just explain how other places have the synthetic for 609?
sure that might make some sense, except for these are presumably being replenished at the same time from the same bulk order to Rangeview, seeing as theyre all in one post.
