Cheaper than Dirt Accused of Price Gouging by Texas Attorney General

The Austin American-Statesman is reporting that the Texas Attorney General has accused the website of price gouging in some cartridge sales. “The Texas AG’s office has identified ammunition as a necessity and, as a result, is arguing that those price hikes were against the Texas Business and Commerce Code,” the story explains.

The state’s Attorney General office has identified more than 4,000 purchasers who were allegedly victimized. As early as April the Houston Chronicle reported officials had already received more than 100 complaints.
