The 13th Semi-Bi-Annual Golden Poop Awards: Price Gouging


Another round of Golden Poop competition, this time we celebrate those people in the gun industry who practice capitalism without a conscience.



Brought to you by our sponsors:


Target, the only thing we love more than money is convincing your children to cut off their genitalia!



The Democratic Party, if we can't win fairly (and we can't) we will just manufacture enough votes to win.


and Diet Woke, it's not cola, it's not even safe to consume.....

and Dirt Ain't Cheap, America's Ultimate Shooting Sports Price Gouger



Ammunition Depot gets a nod with this ad.




Here is Alamo Ammo's entry, just look at the pride they display by putting the words "low price" in capital, bold, red letters!


This may be disqualified as it is an auction, but that price....


Ivan Lipshitz nominated himself again (seriously Ivan, quit contacting us) for his ad profiting off the fears.



J&G Sales gets a nomination for the 9mm ammo below, we contacted them to see if they put the decimal point in the wrong place and they told us: "the price is correct, we know what we have".




The owner of this gun store, called us from prison and asked us not to use his name. He is in prison for insurance fraud after burning his business to the ground.



Mike Oxsmall was a contender for a Golden Poop in another category sent us the picture of the ammo he was selling at a gun show. He says he bought the ammo at Walmart for $18.64 and marked it up to $85.95. That is outrageous profit there Mike.




Sammy's Sporting Goods was nominated by several customers for their superior price gouging prowess, check out the prices on those primers....Way to go Sammy!



Antonio Miguel Marquez Rivera IV is the author of the ad below, he says that even though he stole the gun, he isn't going to give it away.



Gun Buyer was nominated for a Golden Poop for the ad below.




The many fans of Just In Case Ammo wanted to make sure that their least favorite online retailer got credit for selling a relatively unknown brand of ammo for beyond premium pricing.




Benjamin Goldberg sent us a picture of the .38 Special ammo he was peddling at a gun show.






This is the first time a sponsor has been nominated for a Golden Poop and they were not just nominated once, but 65,271 times....Below are just a few of those nominations.
