If it cost you $3.50 per unit, then you should be charging $5-$7 per unit to your distributor in order to make a profit. Your distributor will then charge retailers $10-$14 to deliver said units so they can make a profit. The retailers will then charge the end user/consumer $15-$25 to make a profit.
It may seem outrageous, but most folks don't understand the high cost of business that businesses have to deal with. Most of it is because of government regulations and taxes of every size, shape, and description.
Examples:
Payroll tax (state and fed)
Inventory tax (state and fed)
Social security tax (fed)
Property tax (state and fed)
Fuel tax (state and fed)
Utilities tax (local, state, fed)
Medicare tax
Medical benefits
Specialized personnel to deal with it all
If a business cannot make at least 30% gross profit consistently, they won't last.
The underlying driving reason of inflation is..... GOVERNMENT!
Yes sir, you are correct. I don't know if they purchase all their ammo from All Sport. However, I do know from conversations with the FFL holder at the Canby Rod and Gun Club, our members along with Bi-Mart and other sporting goods stores do indeed purchase ammo from All Sports.And Bi Mart doesn't buy directly from Remington anyway, if I'm not mistaken, like most other sporting goods stores around here, they buy from All Sports aka Big Rock Sports which is a wholesale distributor for guns, ammo, fishing & camping gear, etc.
Possibly the comment should have said BiMart is the largest Remington seller in OREGON since there are 53 stores in the state.
Afterall the clerk at a store is the best source of info. My wife worked for Albertsons for 29 years and the stuff they didn't know was coming was amazing. And the Wife was the Stores Bookkeeper.
I spoke with the mgr of sporting goods here in Medford yesterday about CCI 22 ammo.
He said he had 2 cases come in (bulk Pk of 325) last week, sold it all, but more coming...
"Don't know when, but check back with me"......"I can't hold it for you" (even though I've been shopping there for 21 years.............
I'm only 40 minutes away..............
BUT, it's COMING!!
I have thousands of rounds of Rem bulk pk, but the failure rate seems to be about 5-10%!!!!
