Gander Mountain Closing 30+ Stores

[KMixson]

I see Gander Mountain is closing some of their stores after filing for bankruptcy. If you live near one of the stores that are closing you may want to keep an eye out on clearance sales. Here is a link to an article that will show which stores are closing.

The one in my town is closing they never have much of what I'm looking for. I drive 30 min to Cabela's they always have what in looking for.

Is this the result of Internet/Mail order?

Pretty sad as I like to go and look and touch the things I want to buy.

They never had what I needed in a pinch. If they did it was 5x the cost elsewhere. Their HUGE gun sale in February is a hoax. You can only get 5% off guns regardless of what your scratcher ticket you waited in line for an hour says. Then they raise the prices if the firearms. I went friday night before the sale, found my gun I had saved a long time for. It was $899. Went in saturday morning, filled out the papers, caught hell for having $500 in gift cards. Then my total was something like $1049. I was like whoa..... clerk was like the gun is 999. I said it was 899 last night. Manager came over "oh you saw that", click click on the register. Now 899. Buddy went in on Sunday, found two identical guns, with different price tags. So since then I don't shop there.

Gander mountain was owned by cabela's at one time, but somehow after several years they were able to get ownership back on some type of technicality. Financial problems seem to follow some companies maybe due to poor management. After what i've read today, seems like this was the case, with poor customer service.
