$50-$70 each online & He sells every one he can get.
Then they call me up to see when my next order is coming in.

Would you rather me raise the prices or just limit to 1 per person per order.
I say that because that is all they're purchasing when they order online. You don't have to look far to see who the guys are. I could sell every plug to just 1 guy if he had it his way and I know for a fact he will place them on ebay.

What do you think I should do? Lets hear it

Yes, that would be nice. Once in a blue moon I have been able to order , I have bought from e-pay but only because I cant get some any other way. I would only trade and I have with a few from these parts but I figure how much am I going to make selling a plug on ebay? I definitely rather fish them...

Mike can do whatever he wants, he owns the stock. Some may feel using an internet website to advertise product he isn't selling online to be a contradiction of terms but it's a free country. I personally abhor those who A) scarf up plugs with resale their only intent and B) those who buy said plugs with no intent to fish them.

Plugs are meant to be fished, cars driven, good scotch imbibed, etc.

Just my .02 cents

I agree with whatever Mike does. he owns the shop. I live bout 2 hours away and will head there to get just about anything i need. When are you closing the doors and hitting the woods mike? Hoping it is after this weekend.
