Fox Business - Latest News - Dick's Sporting Goods Misses 4Q Earnings

Could it also be that they are losing business because then decided to not back the second amendment?

Serves them right. I used to use DSG for all of my coaching gear, all of my families athletics. Haven't been in since they pulled their AR's because of *politics".

Same here, and backpedaling won't regain my business, either. When companies make ill-thought decisions like this one, we're done.

The gun culture is very good at knifing traitors.

I refuse to even walk in the doors at Dick's.

I also refuse to walk in the doors.

Funny how the report states lower sales for cold weather gear and other items, but not one word about firearms, ammo, and related gear. I'l let my wallet talk for me.

 

[BE Mike]

I think it is just bad management practices. I'm surprised that they have remained in business this long. Our Dick's is close to Bass Pro. Some items at Dick's are priced well below Bass Pro, but one has to shop.

 

[Classic]

They trashed the gun community so they deserve it. Wish Galyan's was back.

 

[Titanium Man]

I know we haven't stepped foot in there since the December Disgrace, and don't plan to. We use to spend a good chunk of change in there buying UnderArmor, Merrill, and of course a few firearms accessories. No more, and I hope it's cost them dearly.

 

[pmorriso]

I guess the name is serving the company well.

 

[Giddaltti]

Not supprised, cant wait for them to miss next quarter.

 

[amboran]

Dick's---we don't need no stinking Dick's--Dunham's,MC Sports,Bass Pro,Rural King,TSC keep me supplied just fine..

My wife and I took a stroll through there to check something out for fit, but with intentions to buy online last week. I went and looked just out of curiosity and they were still completely out of ammo. I'm glad that they have hit hard times because of their reaction to the recent climate and I certainly hope the two are affiliated. I'll continue to give my money to better organizations.

No, they're not. Five second after prices returned to what passed for "normal" after the 2008 election, people were back to Cheaper Than Dirt. All it takes is one weekend door-buster sale and all will be forgiven and forgotten.

It may be true unfortunately, I haven't gotten anything from Dicks since Dec. and never bought from CTD because I just don't think they ever have good prices at all.

 

[DFM914]

They can close their doors for all I care, I don't do business with them.

 

[searpinski]

I miss Galyans too.. What a great store. I refuse to buy anything or set foot in a Dicks on general principle.

 

[rnmcguire]

Good

I hope they keep hurting. I won't shop there. I used to buy ammo there sometimes but after the PR trick they pulled in December, well that was the straw that broke their back for me. Too bad Galyans sold out to them.

 

[TEK]

what was the december disgrace anyhow? I was working nonstop and didnt catch the news.

 

[Llamaguy]

I also refuse to walk in the doors.

Walking in their doors will hurt them though. Just make sure it's only so that you can walk back out and increase their operating costs due to heat loss/AC.
