Is this for real?

Hey guys,

I was just browsing Cheaper Than Dirt and I saw this.

59561 - .270 Winchester Nosler Trophy Grade Rifle Cartridge, 130-Grain AccuBond Bullet, 3075 fps, 20 Rounds per Box

Is this for real? $1,129.99 for 20 rounds of that stuff? What is it made out of? Diamonds? This website has some outrageous prices, but really, that is pure blasphemy.

Yea, a typo? But then, what would it be? $112.99, $119.99, $129.99, $29.99, 19.99? lol

I thought the same thing. If they type the prices verbatim, which I believe that this website may. Then they had to type in the comma (,). Well, if they had to type in the comma, then it had to be a price in the thousand(s) at least, right?

If it's a typo it's a doozy.At Cabelas it's $57.99,but then from my experience Cheaper Than Dirt usually isn't.

And the rare times it is, they eat you with the shipping cost.

I just clicked on the link and it looks like they corrected the typo. Now says $43.70 a box. Where the hell were those numbers in the earlier price? lmao

I once worked for an Army Surplus store, and the types of people they put in charge of their internet catalogs...hah. The guy who made this mistake was probably stoned at the time.

+ 1. Cheaper Than Dirt tends to be high priced in my opinion. Then their shipping is outragious.
