Strange things usually happen once you’ve taken some sort of action. This morning, I sort of gave up on finding ammo and posted this plea on our forum.
I had been participating on ammoseek.com. For those not knowing, this is a search site that monitors dozens, maybe hundreds of online sellers. They offer saved searches and also notifications when a search meets your criterion. In my case, I wanted notifications when any ammo hit the market at less than $0.35 per round. I got dozens upon dozens of notifications only to go to the site and find them sold out. Sometimes within seconds.
That brings me to this mornings post and plea. Then this afternoon another notification. OK I’ll check. I did, I went to the sellers site and got right to the add to cart button. So, I increased the amount equating to 500 rounds, thinking “why not”? It accepted that quantity and kept going. I got all the way past setting an account, fully expecting to be bumped out any moment. I got all the way to a credit card and all was still accepted. The order is still “pending” and there is nothing against my card yet, but I’m hopeful.
So, time will tell what I get and when. The seller says to wait 48 hours before inquiring, so here I am waiting. A bit skeptical, but hopeful too. Tick, tock...Stay tuned.
