The Sportsmans Guide Products...
 
The products that this website sells seems to be priced very cheap compared to most places and they are apparently the same products. I was wondering what some of you thought about these products that i am thinking about purchasing from them and was wondering if i would be buying crap or not. Here are the links. http://www.sportsmansguide.com/net/cb/cb.aspx?a=355982
Just yesterday both of these items were on sale for 39.99 each

I have had some marginal dealings with this company in the past and don't deal with them anymore. A year or two ago I believe they were bought by the French if that tells ya anything. I think since that it has been re-purchased by a US company, but I'm not real sure.

yeah, i was just curious about the quality of thier products because allot of things that they sell are so cheap. If it a name brand product how can they sell it so much cheaper than the manufacturer?

Now, I'm not saying you won't have a good experience with them; I just know I have not. I'm just one guy.

A few different ways. They buy large quantity of factory overstocks. The companies sell to them at a loss just to get inventory off of their shelves. They can then sell them cheaper because they bought them cheaper. It's cheaper for big companies to take a loss on an entire lot of items than to carry them over in inventory and try to move them.

They also likely get products similar to a store here where I live. They get prducts out of insurance settlements that were in semi or train accidents. Even if the products aren't damaged in an accident they still can't be sold at a retail store. The insurance companies pay out and then sell to these companies buy them for pennies on the dollar. That is why they carry such a variety of products.
