If this person is truly making a profit off of $27 then Western Poweder is truly ripping us off. That means they can make if for 5 dollars a can and rasing the price by 4x and then the company that sells it marking it up. Equaling roughly $32 a can. Something isn't right.

Chevy builds the corvette for $15,000 in parts and labor and then sells it for $75,000 +

Think about it.

When you're a dealer, you get big time breaks in price, especially when order large amounts.

Still isn't right. Think about it. $27 a can TYD no min or max. Yet when you buy Goex/Pyrodex. All websites will cut you a break in price with the more you buy yet the min for ordering is five cans. So I could see 27 a can if he set a min. I just don't see how he is making a profit on it if a person just buys one can.

most likely has more in the store sales than online sales so it all works out.

I get it for that price locally from Grafs (actually $27.99 IIRC) and 4759 for only 22.99 for a full pound. Its pretty obvious to me the markup is HUGE on powders!!! Even Cabelas has sales for $24.99 a bottle once or twice a year.

I got some APP Pooper Powder online cheap too and it appeared to ship from the website/retailer. It worked great on the 4th of July. ;) Maybe it drop ships with the retailers address label from the supply house? Maybe there is a difference in what WE pay for hazmat vs what a business with a shipping account pays. ;)

50Calty:

I have been buying my BH209 for $29.00 shipped for over a year. Quantity dealers get deep discounts and can afford to sell it very cheap with shipping built into their price.

I'm going to Bass Pro Shop Monday after work. I'll be getting a bottle of Blackhorn for $30.00 and a pack of Pyrodex Pellets for $28.00. Plus tax that's $61.48 and I don't have to wait for it to be shipped. I might even pick up some bullets if they have something I want. Its nice to have a big sporting goods store like that within a reasonable drive. Of coarse I'll be doing a lot of browsing while I'm there too.

I personally, dont care how he does it...as long as it comes to my door for 27 bucks..... Only place I can find within a reasonable driving distance is 39.95 a jug......and for a guy that doesn't shoot alot and only goes thru a couple of jugs a year......i just cant buy a case at a time to save on the hazmat fee.
So, Carlos will be getting an order from me.....

I do the same thing with a Bass Pro in my area (once they lowered the price from $45!). However, you do pay sales tax, and at least in Texas, when I order from another state there is no sales tax. So I can order BH 209 for $27 to my door and if I bought it at Bass Pro at $30 + tax I would pay a total of $32.50. That is $5.50 per bottle I could spend elsewhere. Think I will order some!
