Question for all of you gear hounds out there.
An LDS is going out of business, they claim rock-bottom prices - "cost plus", below "key man" (not sure what that means), and better than "Instructor Pricing."
It doesn't mean anything. However if they actually say "going out of business sale" , many locations have laws regarding how long the sale can go on for. In the past it wasn't uncommon to find stores that had been "going out of business" for years.
As for not answering your question about prices, it's either because the stuff is selling great, they don't have much left and don't care if you come in, or because the prices aren't anything special and if they tell you, you won't come in.
If they're willing to order stuff for you, I'd suspect they're not going out of business at all, since manufacturers will usually stop shipping to stores that are closing.
flots.
