[pony up]

I had read posts from folks disgruntled with Buds and had never checked them out till this week. Decided to price them against the best I could find anywhere including Gunbroker. They started with a lower price, accepted an offer I was sure they would reject and they have free shipping, full insurance $1 per hundred plus they will accept an electronic check that let me take advantage of the 3% discount cash price from the comfort of my office chair and took about 15 seconds to execute. They had my FFL on file! Saved $70 from the next best offer. AND I didn't have to screw around with an auction. Even I know how to say yes to that. Only one transaction so far but I like Buds. They haven't shipped yet (3 days) but say 3 to 5 days to ship. Fair enough.
