A) Looks like it's sold out now.
B) Those prices aren't fair in my book, seem to be over double of what pre-covid prices were.

Yeah. Another apparent spammer. If they want to get a commercial account, they can be up front about it and negotiate it via the "Contact Us" link on every page of this website.

In the meantime, so long.

@benenglish - I have a naive and sincere question(s):
Was the OP banned based on being a smammer because the purpose of this thread was for him to use TGT for "advertising" that pewoutdoors site?
Does this kind of thing happen to TGT often?

Dude, Ben has them super secret Mod powers! He can see thing the rest of us can only dream about!

Seriously, it's possible Ben looked at his IP address and something kicked off his spidey sense.

Sincere questions are always welcome.

Yes. It's perfectly OK for a commercial enterprise to have an account and promote themselves. They can set up a commercial account via the "Contact Us" link on every web page. It's NOT all right for someone to pretend to be an unaffiliated member who's just asking a question when they're actually affiliated with the business. That's deceitful. It's like those fake reviews on Amazon. How can you trust a business that feels it needs to trick you into visiting their website?

Does this kind of thing happen to TGT often?

Oh, yes. All the time.

ETA: The smart operators can get away with it for far too long, sometimes. It takes a lot of reading, sometimes, for us to realize that an FFL is trying to use our Classifieds as their own personal web store. This thread, though, represented a much-clumsier-than-usual attempt to abuse the resources of TGT.
